4. Health Warning
Please read this section carefully before playing our voice-powered games.
Some of our games encourage or require you to vocalize loudly, scream, shout, or produce sustained vocal sounds. Be aware of the following:
- Vocal strain: Prolonged or excessive screaming, shouting, or loud vocalization can strain your vocal cords and may lead to hoarseness, soreness, or vocal cord injury.
- Take regular breaks: We recommend taking frequent breaks during gameplay to rest your voice. Do not play for extended periods without rest.
- Stop if you experience discomfort: If you experience any pain, soreness, tightness, irritation, or discomfort in your throat, neck, or chest, stop playing immediately and rest.
- Hearing safety: If you are using headphones or speakers while playing, be mindful of volume levels. Prolonged exposure to loud sounds can damage your hearing.
- Pre-existing conditions: If you have any pre-existing vocal, respiratory, hearing, or cardiovascular condition, consult your doctor before using voice-controlled games.
- Hydration: Stay hydrated before and during gameplay to support vocal health.
