Ban the computer game Rape Day in New Zealand

The issue

A new video game 'Rape Day' has been listed on Steam and has not yet been released but absolutely should not. The game centres around controlling a 'serial killer rapist during a zombie apocalypse'. The official description of the game reads, 'Verbally harass, kill, and rape women as you choose to progress the story'. This game glorifies rape and is absolutely shocking. The fact that it is even listed on Steam is horrible. This game should never be released or authorised for release on Steam by Valve Corporation, and at the very least should be banned in New Zealand for its shocking glorification of rape that goes against everything our country stands for.
