[QUOTE="Egg Embry, post: 7723533, member: 6808965"] jedijon - Thanks for playing a variety of games with your kids. That's awesome! :-) I appreciate your questions. For all-ages game reviews I play most while others, due to time constraint or gaming overload, I read then discuss with the oldest of the two kids to get her thoughts. What makes Little Heroes interesting is it's a narrative RPG, making it collaborative and giving every player the chance to be the GM/Lead Storyteller. You mention that your eight year old is on the threshold of GM'ing, Little Heroes provides an opportunity to be the Lead Storyteller for a single Act which would let her spread her GM'ing wings without having to carry a full adventure for her first time at bat. Not saying she couldn't do a full adventure from the jump, just offering one of the options that's baked into the rules for Little Heroes - every scene has a different Lead Storyteller so this could be a stepping stone from full-time player to full-time GM. There's a Pay What You Want option to get the Little Heroes quickstart rules at DriveThruRPG [URL="http://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/206578/Little-Heroes-The-Lost-Faery-QuickStart-Rules&affiliate_id=814082"]here[/URL] [affiliated link]. With all games, mileage will vary so PWYW gives you the chance to test out the game and see if it works for your children. All of that said, you have your kids in games already and that's great! That's a level 20 Parent special ability!
