There is no school, it's set in medieval times lol.
And these games are there as well, but not Melody...or some others.
Hmmm, strange how underage they look, but it's fine...because they didn't get "Mary".
"Mia" was rejected, but it got to be submitted again, because "Mia was school shit and still is school shit", so is Lust Theory, and they are high school...
Also here is this nice little chart.

Who said Homelander has high school theme? I surely didn't, I even said I didn't play it. I said I think some characters look controversial in it and I said high school theme isn't allowed on Steam either.
Mia isn't high school though, I've just finished the sequel today. In one of the very first lines of the first game MC is 20 and is in college. It's literally written during MC's introduction! Mia is 22. In the sequel, two years after SwM, MC is 22 with his sophomore year behind him. Later in SwM MC is 18 who just finished high school though (there're a lot of messed up things in that game). But that's again different either way. He already finished school. There is no sex during the last two days of school, the whole game happens after that. MC is spying on Mia during those days but she's older anyway. Also 80-90% of people are over 18 on the day they finish school.
Lust Theory's description also says College. The characters must be over 18 either way in these games. That's why I honestly can't even understand devs, just write college instead of high school always for God's sake and that'll make it!

Here the looks of a building or a classroom won't matter, like ever. No one will start a criminal investigation because a building in an adult game looks like a high school instead of a college... With 12 years old looking characters taking a dick in each hole at once is a bit different...
Also Mia was rejected for other reasons I think, that's why they could re-submit it. LoF was banned for a while because of license issues with the music in it. That's totally different from having underage looking characters that's why Drifty was allowed to fix it.
I've read some messages devs got from Steam and those explicitly stated that they can't submit their games a second time. And while the reason wasn't precisely disclosed, there're hints about underage looking characters or high school setting...
I wanted to bring up Bad Memories myself because it sure as hell is a miracle it wasn't rejected simply for it's banner. :

My New Memories is the same just like all the japanese games. I'm not sure these games would remain on the platform if people started to report them though...
Again, a reviewer can make a big difference but one has to prepare for the worst, like Mary. One day Steam may will fire the guy who allowed Bad Memories because it isn't in line with the platform's rules while Mary will be able to keep her job. It doesn't even matter. Make a game Mary would approve and you're good to go. It's not Steam's or Mary's loss if your game gets rejected but yours and your fans' if you'd abandon the game they liked for financial reasons!
