undetected epileptic symptoms or seizures in persons who have no history of prior
seizures or epilepsy. If you, or anyone in your family, has an epileptic condition or has
had seizures of any kind, consult your physician before playing.
IMMEDIATELY DISCONTINUE use and consult your physician before resuming
gameplay if you or your child experience any of the following health problems or
symptoms:
• dizziness,
• altered vision,
• eye or muscle twitches,
• loss of awareness,
