A side discussion that came up in another thread got me wondering about this. I play a "group" that is just me and my wife (we each play two characters now). And I have a friend that also plays a group that is just he and his wife. So I'm curious how many others out there are finding this game to be a great bonding experience for couples?
We put the kids in bed then run a scenario just the two of us about 2 or 3 times a week.
My kids aren't old enough, but I've seen a lot of people say they play with their kids. So how many of you do that?
I'm just curious about how great a couple/family bonding tool this game might be.
I play with my wife.
ATM we are doing a Lem and Kyra duo that go up against 8 player worth of locations. Have finished up Perils of the Lost Coast and are 3 adventures deep in Burnt Offerings.
I play the card game with my wife, though she is not into the RPG. This game does bring us a bit closing in terms of my hobby and lets us be social more as well.
We do not currently have any kids but our close friends 3 year old the other day said he wants to play Dungeons and Dragons with me when he's older. I'll take that as a win.
I play quite often with my wife and two kids (10 YO boy and 9 YO girl). We all love the game but my daughter and I are the ones who will wear the cards down to dust. Love this game!!
I play it with the wife. She plays RPGs (we met because I joined a new group and she was the GM). We play solo Pathfinder (She GMs - I run Dresden Files for her). She bought it for me some to play together, but so if I felt like Pathfinder but she was to tired to GM, I could get something close.
I just introduced the game to my boyfriend, and he seems to be really enjoying it so far. He kept asking when we could the next scenario :)

My wife loves this game. I like it, she LOVES it. We play two player quite often with Kyra and Sajan. The game also serves as a fallback when we can't get our regular weekly Pathfinder group all together. With the bigger group, it's I play Ezren, she plays Merisiel, and others play Amiri, Valeros, and Lini. We've had great fun. My good friend also has a copy and regularly plays with his wife and kids.
My wife isn't a gamer, but I play with my three eldest (15, 13, & 20), all girls.
My fiance games with me from time to time. She's more into the "what can I kill and collect" aspect of the game, while most of the other players in my steady group are more into the roleplay or other minutea.
So, she'll make a character, then get frustrated from a lack of progress, and bow out gracefully.
We play as a family - my wife, son (10), and daughter (8). We just made it through the "Basic" campaign and are about to start the Burnt Offerings one.
The children absolutely love it - my wife is slowly coming around :). Biggest problem is we start so late due to putting the younger children to bed (2 & 5 yr old).
Tons of fun though :)
