Pick an age band to see what changes for each game.
Potentially okay for ages 10-12, but only with strict supervision and chat disabled or in private games with known friends. The deception aspect needs context.
From our in-depth reviewWorth considering; offers fun, slapstick competition, but establish rules around in-game purchases and discuss resilience in losing.
From our in-depth reviewIn short
Among Us is a unique social deduction game that challenges players to identify an impostor among their crew or cleverly deceive others as the impostor. While its cartoony style is appealing, the core gameplay involves lying and intense social dynamics, making it a qualified fit for older children. Parents should be aware of the online chat and potential for frustration.
- Encourages communication and teamwork (for crewmates)
- Light-hearted cartoon art style
- Gameplay involves deception/lying
- Online play with unfiltered chat (could see bad language)
Fall Guys is a chaotic online obstacle course game where players compete as wobbly 'beans' in a series of zany challenges. It’s genuinely funny and easy to pick up, making it feel like a virtual game show. However, its free-to-play model leans heavily on cosmetic purchases and encourages persistent play for rewards, posing risks around monetization and frustration from frequent losses.
- Hilarious, non-violent fun – like a virtual obstacle course
- Easy for anyone to play (simple controls)
- Online only – requires internet and has typical competitive pressure
- Can be frustrating not to win (one winner out of 60)
