Horses, a first-person narrative horror game, was banned from the Epic Games Store just hours before it was set to launch on December 2nd. Then, a day after launch, the Humble store (temporarily) banned it as well. The decision shocked the developers at Santa Ragione, makers of the critically respected Saturnalia, as these storefronts were the homes they’d found for their game two years before it was preemptively banned from Steam.

Valve and Epic say Horses violates their sexual content policies. Humble hasn’t yet said why it banned the game.

They made an art piece that tows the line in the minefield so hard that it is causing explosions when people try to follow along...

Yeah ok, so sounds like they accomplished their goal in the art sense and just won't get the wide audience and monetary rewards for making an art piece that hurt people.

I see nothing wrong here.
