Epilepsy Warning

Please read before using this video game or allowing your children to use it:

Some people are susceptible to epileptic seizures or loss of consciousness when exposed to certain flashing lights or light patterns in everyday life. Such people may have a seizure while watching certain monitor images or playing certain video games. This may happen even if the person has no medical history of epilepsy or has never had any epileptic seizures. If you or anyone in your family has ever had symptoms related to epilepsy (seizures or loss of consciousness) when exposed to flashing lights, consult your doctor prior to playing. We advise that parents should monitor the use of video games by their children. If you or your child experience any of the following symptoms: dizziness, blurred vision, eye or muscle twitches, loss of consciousness, disorientation, or any involuntary movement or convulsion while playing a video game, then IMMEDIATELY discontinue use and consult your doctor.

PRECAUTIONS TO TAKE DURING USE:

• Do not sit too close to the screen. Keep a good distance between your eyes and the monitor.

• Avoid playing if you are tired or have not had much sleep.

• Make sure that the room in which you are playing is well lit.

• Rest for at least 10 to 15 minutes per hour while playing a video game.
