Game Description:

READY! SET! PARENT!

Little Bobby’s dead, the BBQ is on fire, Jen’s eating poisonous berries and the birthday cake still needs icing. It’s just another wonderful day out with the kids in Think of the Children, a frantic parenting simulator for up to four players.

Hauled before the court for bad parenting and endangering the lives of your children, the Prosecutors present a series of events as evidence that will either condemn or exonerate you: a birthday party at the park, a day at the zoo, a camping trip, an unexpected visit to the Australian Outback and more. Each of these locations proves to be far more dangerous than they sound, and even the tamest of environments are filled with deadly hazards.

Run solo, or team up with other parents to play through each trip in flashback to prove your parenting skills-and your innocence-to the judge, and avoid going to jail.

KEY FEATURES

Multi-tasking mayhem:

There’s never a dull moment when you’ve got the BBQ to tend, picnic tables to set, some of the kids are playing with a rabid dog, and two of them just ran out onto the road.

Parenting is hard:

To get a good parenting grade and avoid jail time you’ll need to get all your tasks done, keep the kids happy, and–ideally–alive!

Nowhere is safe:

The local park, the beach, the supermarket, the zoo. Great places for a day out with the kids. That is, aside from the poisonous berries, ravenous seagulls, towering grocery shelves and electrified pens.

All kinds of families welcome:

Single parent? Two mums? A mum, two dads and a horse in a long distance relationship? It’s all good. Parent solo or co-operatively with up to four players.

At this price, it's worth it!

      • still waiting for a good deal

  • Cool. Looks sort of like overcooked.

    • +3

      It's competitive in that everybody gets an individual score at the end, not a co-op game like overcooked. But if the kids die (not sure if 1 dies or all die) then everybody looses.

      • Ah k. I never played co op.
        Looks like fun anyway.

  • Fun hard game!! Loved it at PAX. Love the coop games especially if you want to test your cooperation and relationships…

  • Fantastic title for local coop. I wouldn't play it solo, but it turns into a chaotic riot when you're parenting with friends.

  • Is this an Extinction Rebellion game?

  • Had a play last night. Definitely a party game. Way too difficult single player

  • Does this game lag badly on the menu and load screens for anyone else?
