Moscow12 July: Vesti. Games for children should be educational and developmental. 'In the case of access to mobile and computer games, preference should be given to educational, rescue, or developmental plots,' it says in the ministry's letter.
Consensus

- Children's computer and mobile games should prioritize educational, developmental, or rescue-themed scenarios when permitted access.
- Game content must be safe and appropriate for children.
- The guidelines were sent to regional authorities.
Points of divergence
- A 10-year-old boy nearly became a victim of a pedophile while playing Brawl Stars, which prompted the issuance of these recommendations. — riamo
