[QUOTE="MNblockhead, post: 9634194, member: 6796661"] No. When I got back into the hobby and my kids were still young, the first TTRPG I ran for them was Hero Kids. The main fun of hero kids was the craft aspect of it. Cutting out and gluing the standee miniatures, cutting out the geomorphs and making a cave system, etc. The rules didn't do much for me, but it was easy for the kids to pickup. Then I started running kid-friendly 5e adventures from Playground Adventures. Some good adventures, but really geared for parents who were already familiar with 5e. No Thank You, Evil! was the first game that was the whole package. It was well designed both in rules and components. Came in a box with pleasant and easy to digest rules and scenarios. A parent who never played a TTRPG in their life could buy the game at Target and run it for their kids. Looks like [I]Magical Kitties Save the Day[/I] was first published in 2020, my kids were to old by then to likely be interested. My older son is not as into TTRPGs as he gets ready to go to college. My younger soon has been playing 5e with several groups and just started to DM his own game of Warhammer Fantasy Role Play 4th Edition. So simpler, child-friendly games is not what he's looking for. But I think it is great that there are even more options available and from my brief browsing of Atlas Game's website, it looks like a very well designed and attractive game. [/QUOTE]
