Photosensitivity Warning

There are short spurts of flashing lights (like lightning) in some scenes.

Language

Strange World is totally clean when it comes to swear words.

There is one “close call” where the swear is cut off- but we’re giving Strange World the “safe for kids” tag because this is as good as it gets lately!

There are some mild insults thrown around, but honestly, nothing that seems relevant to call out directly.
