 I thought it was some kind of automatic woke detector. You know, following
automatic rules to detect wokeness? Isn’t there such a thing? You know,
just logically applying the definition.

You have to install and start the games and play some to gauge the amount of mental sickness and victimhood baked into them.  They look for the following clues (among others):
----------------------------------------------------------------
Contains overtly Pro-LGBTQ+ messaging.
Contains overtly pro-DEI messaging.
Pronoun selection including the option for they/them.
All populated areas are equally diverse.
Many important people are POC.
Non-binary/other option available for identity in the character creation
menu.
Uses body type instead of male and female.
Optional homosexual romance.
Homosexual relationship between minor characters.
The npc Chaos is non-binary.
The npc Dusa says she is asexual.
includes a body swap mode that allows you to independently change
whether each character is male or female for his/her body and text.
Forced diversity that is inaccurate for the time period.
Contains overtly anti-patriarchy messaging.
Race swapping
LGBT flags
