Topic: what games for young ones and family

Hey All, just bought the PS4, was going to wait for 5 but in reality....i couldnt hold off on something new.

now i know game consoles have for what ever reason gone mainly single player or online anti social playing, but i am wondering if anyone can help me with any good local multiplayer games for kids and family. i have got a couple of the playlink games, i also have the hidden agenda, are there more like that? (though was a very quick and easy game)

any helps appreciated.

@lovejones The Lego games are great and so varied that there is sure to be one that you and your family enjoy, from Harry Potter to Marvel, Lord of the Rings to Jurassic World.

I’ve been playing the Harry Potter games with my wife is very much not a gamer and she is enjoying them. Some bits can be tricky though for people not used to gaming.

I think loads of the games are in the current PlayStation store sale too.

Lego Games
Minecraft
Knack 2
Little Big Planet 3
Fat Princess Adventures
Castle Crashers (Turn off gore though)
Spyro/Crash Trilogy
Letter Quest
Simple Puzzle games (Tetris, Peggle 2, Tricky Towers, Sparkle 2)
Virtual Board games (Monopoly, Boogle, Uno)
Ratchet & Clank
Sports Games
Fighting Games (Obviously not MK or DOA but Tekken, Street Fighter etc are fine for kids)
Towerfall
Portal Knights
Brawlhalla (F2P)
Overcooked 2
Just Dance games

thanks for the help, appreciated
