Smartphones kill people all the time, Apple/Google/Samsung do not get sued for it. 

It's your own damn fault if you're looking at your phone/texting/playing a game when you should be driving. 

Tell that to a parent, if one should loose a kid. I'm not against P go, I play it but just out of bordom. What I am against is putting this out as a free app and not putting a price on it like .99 cent or something to route out a few Kids as well as putting no effort into warning people that their 6 year old will be in danger and having some parental lock upon start up, instead leaving it to a simple message. Oh and if you get shot on the street its your fault,...not the gun shop that sold an rifle to a sociopath. If you get shoot by a cop, its your fault and not the Polices training policy or vetting proccess. If your house burns down or you loose a leg from a hover exploding, its not the companies fault, right? Get real, its like putting candy/seets on the shelf in your store, the best candy/sweets ever, so attractive looking right but you put some cyanide in the middle and tell the kids only eat around the outside. and not the centre. 

Actually, it isn't the job of the app maker to ensure the child understands proper use.  That is on the parents.  That is called raising and teaching a child.

Secondly, that part when you start the app up that warns you about being aware at all times?  6 or 60, your own responsibilty.  Too young for it to be your own responsibility?  Then your parents should've made sure you didn't have a cell phone with access to the app.

And perhaps if more people told parents it was their fault for not monitoring their child well enough we wouldn't have people trying to pass blame for the actions of individuals onto companies.
