Common Sense Media rates these games as suitable for ages 13 and up, with high marks in several categories:

* 4/5 stars for positive messages.
* 4/5 stars for ease of play.

While they note minimal concerns, such as 1/5 stars for sexual content and 1/5 for references to drinking, drugs, and smoking, it's important to mention that these elements are typically avoided in the family-friendly mode we'll be using for our class. When played in this mode, these games are known for providing wholesome, clean family entertainment. Many families, including mine, enjoy these games with children as young as 7, and we've never encountered any issues. So rest assured, your child's experience will be fun and suitable for all ages.
