Ageless Rating System (ARS) is a video game content rating system designed to help consumers make an informed choice when buying video games. It was developed by Eseptian Media Rating Organization (EMRO) in 2023 as an alternative to other modern rating systems, which EMRO considers "too ageist".

Ratings

Ageless Rating System was created in order to promote the destigmatization of intellectual and emotional inferiority of the children that is well-established in society. EMRO believes that some children may be much less sensitive than the average adult, and vice versa. Considering this, any rating of a video game, book or movie should only warn consumers about potential risks and not prevent them from consuming of product.

The table below presents EMRO ratings as an example of an ARS-based rating system. Icons and requirements of each rating may vary depending on the organization using this system.

Icon Description
Rating A indicates a product that is suitable for everyone. A game with that rating doesn't contain scenes of violence, use of psychoactive drugs, gambling, coarse language, scary scenes or any other kind of scenes that are considered unacceptable by some.
Rating B indicates a product that may contain scenes of fantasy violence, use of impolite language, and may slightly frighten emotional immature or very sensitive audience.
