Halloween: The Game banned in Australia over incentivised drug use

Halloween: The Game has been banned in Australia by the Classification Board, but unusually not due to its graphic violence and brutal gameplay mechanics. Instead, the ban was issued because the game incentivizes drug use, a decision that critics argue reveals inconsistent standards in Australia's classification system. Academics and former board directors have questioned this reasoning, highlighting the apparent contradiction in banning a game for drug incentivization while allowing it to feature extreme violence.
