How Content Safety Works

SagaBound checks content at the moments checking does the most good: a dedicated safety classifier reviews what goes into a story, your maturity rating decides how dark the fiction is allowed to go, and publishing a world to the community clears a stricter bar than private play. The goal is broad creative freedom inside clear, non-negotiable lines.

The input gate

Every action, question, and correction you send is reviewed by a safety classifier before the story sees it, scaled to your saga's rating: Safe games hold the strictest line, Mature allows realistic darkness, and Unfiltered removes content restrictions within the Acceptable Use Policy. When something is declined, the game says so plainly instead of silently swallowing it, so you always know where the line was.

Ratings are a choice, not a loophole

Mature and Unfiltered are adult ratings that unlock only for accounts whose date of birth shows 18 or older, and an account without a date of birth stays on Safe. A few models cap at Mature regardless of your setting. The full rating breakdown is in narrative tone and maturity.

Publishing clears a higher bar

What you write in a private saga affects you; what you publish in the Forge affects everyone who plays it. So drafts get creative leeway, and the publish step reviews a world's content against community standards before it can appear in the Community tab. Unlisted publishing sits in between: your world stays out of every public list, reachable only by link. Details are in publishing and the community.

Why it is built this way

Checking inputs keeps a story from being derailed after you have invested hours in it, which is kinder than moderating by deleting finished scenes. Putting the choice in a verified adult's hands respects that grimdark fiction is a legitimate way to play. And gating the commons harder than the private table is how tabletop groups have always worked. If you see something that slipped through, the contact page reaches a human who can act on it.
