The article calls out “certain adult games” which is vague. It is interesting to note that most of the delisted games were themed specifically around incest.

Wondering if this will be a slippery slope towards pulling more anodyne stuff.

Collective Shout, the group behind this petition, has previously gone after more mainstream games, like Detroit Becomes Human, for spurious reasons. I have no doubt they'll use this win and mealy-mouthed language to push for more censorship.
