Thank you very much for doing so.
Especially you are to be thanked for clearly delineating facts about the
game's content, versus your subjective reaction to it.

Based on your description and experience of the game, I would agree
that:
* I don't know of a policy nor legal reason to summarily reject this
work from Debian.
* The “possession and/or distribution of images of child abuse” may be a
legal barrier. But as you point out, that issue is not crucial for the
more general complaint against this work's content.
* For the sociological reasons you explain, I would not want to see this
work propagated further. I hope it does not enter Debian nor its
servers, and I do not want the Debian project to contribute to its spread.

Yes, the screen shots look to be good-quality game illustrations. More
like that, please!
