Eh, it'd probably be a PG, because if the movie was faithful to the original work, it'd all be in letters. Just make sure you don't bring the kids. Or that they can't read.
Books tend to solely consist of letters as well, but very few film adaptions do.

Yep, LCS makes DF and *spoilers* look positively family friendly.

Of course the ESRB is pretty crappy in general

Sexual Themes - References to sex or sexuality, usually an automatic M rating.
Strong Language - Explicit and/or frequent use of profanity
Intense Violence - Graphic and realistic-looking depictions of physical conflict. May involve extreme and/or realistic blood, gore, weapons and depictions of human injury and death
Use of Drugs  - The consumption or use of illegal drugs, which I think supersedes Use of Alcohol and Use of Tobacco descriptors.

Sexual Themes seem wrong, as LCS only recruit love slaves, and only through dating. They also gain juice loss if one of them is in prison, obivously due to the person on the outside pining for their lost love one.

Use of Drugs however is totally wrong. The LCS sells brownies. The fact that they are laced with drugs are only implied.

And you get a date with someone by saying things like, "You're hot, wanna fuck?" ... And one of the illegal fundraising techniques is "Prostitution: [Name] will trade sex for money."  And there are clearly marked prostitutes in the game.

As for drug use, there are clearly marked crack heads, and crack houses, and one of the responses to trying to recruit someone is "*cough* Got anything to smoke?"

Not to mention when you abduct someone you can use hallucinogenic drugs on them, which is clearly marked rather than the "Sell Brownies" option where drugs are only implied.

"Sell Brownies" has the description ">name< will bake and sell special adult brownies that open the magical shimmering doorways to the adamantium pits."

Sure, it doesn't specificly say what's special about them, but...

Ah good, forgot about that one.  Hey SC, are you ashamed of yourself yet? :D

Yep, I've had a guy get 31 months for "selling brownies".  Oh yeah, and running over someone with my car.  But they didn't seem to mind that so much.

Yeah, I'm sure that didn't factor into the sentencing at all

If LCS had RAWs (does it? I don't know) then judges would have
