This was unfortunately part of a games story and i guess the legalities played a role into making it part of the story. I had no idea it was legal there.

If you know the game please use spoilers before shouting it out.

Someone needs to do better research. There should be a little green splotch on the east coast of the US, it's legal in New Jersey.
I honestly find it weird it's illegal anywhere that pedophilia is illegal. If your both consenting adults, who cares if you came from the same hole?

Biology cares. If you want an incestual relationship it should only be permitted once both partners are castrated.

The ones that are purple are probably that way because same sex incest doesn't result in children.

A lot of people reproduce that shouldn't, don't see why you should s8ngle out incestuous pairings. All those inbred tropes only really happen after if the relative boinking happens over multiple generations.
There's a higher chance the kid might be autistic, but that's not exactly a rarity in normal pairings these days.

does incest mean immediate family in this case (biological parents & siblings)?

because there are multiple states in the US where first cousins can marry (and presumably procreate).

Now, the countries on that list where same sex relationships aren't listed as always illegal, heterosexual incest is legal, but same-sex incest is illegal.

That's a confusing mess.

What the fuck, Jamaica?

It's not illegal in the UK (even marriage is legal) [First cousins can marry, and have merriment], so I dunno where you got your graphic from, but it's incorrect:
https://metro.co.uk/2018/08/01/can-marry-cousin-uk-family-members-illegal-marry-7785320/

Neither is it illegal in all US States, for example in Rhode island:
"No person shall marry his or her sibling, parent, grandparent, child, grandchild, stepparent, grandparents' spouse, spouse's child, spouse's grandchild, sibling's child or parent's sibling.
Consensual incest between people 16 years old or more is not a criminal offense."

I imagine those green countries it's legal not necessarily for siblings and parents but rather cousins.

Would be helpful to have a definition of incest for the purposes of that map.

I kinda wonder what the conditions were for the pic in the OP. Like, how close does the relative bond have to be? Does it count if it involves step-siblings who didn't grow up together? Does the law explicitly have to mention which types of relatives qualify (and if not, is it considered 'legal' by default)?

Personally I'm ok with any consented relationships between non-directly related adults who didn't grow up together.

Sodomy is still illegal in a lot of countries, too. Laws against incest are 100% based on social taboo. If people actually cared about "genetics" they wouldn't pass laws legislating a brother and sister with a 1% chance of genetic disease while unrelated couples with serious genetic risks are perfectly legal

My guess would be that old laws didn't define "sodomy" or whatever you call same-sex relations in gross old timey language as proper relations and therefore it doesn't technically fall under some sort of language choice within the incest legislation.
