As our submission library expands, we find ourselves receiving more games and submissions that viewers may find hard to watch for various reasons. To help identify these runs, we have two warning symbols that allow our community to easily see when a run carries discomforting and/or disturbing content.

Sensitivity Warnings
The yellow symbol indicates the presence of scenes that may cause visual or aural discomfort, such as rapidly flashing lights, colors, and images, or sudden loud noises. Movies tagged with this symbol will contain explanations in the publication description to further inform the viewer of what they may experience.
