RPGs For Kids


Gamer Life General Discussion


The question of how to play RPGs with your kids comes up from time to time on these boards. Sometimes it's your own kids, or nieces and nephews, or even a club at school.

This thread is my collection of links to various RPGs written specifically for kids and for Pathfinder scenarios, quests, and modules that are kid friendly.


An announcement today of two new kickstarters for kid friendly RPGs

A good day for kid RPGs!

Lots of folks got started in PF1 with the Game Day modules about PF Goblins (PDFs are free)

We Be Goblins
We Be Goblins Too
We Be Goblins Free
We B4 Goblins
We Be 5uper Goblins


PF1 also offers a pre-made adventure in the Beginner Box that's appropriate for kids
Beginner Box

The Beginner Box has a flip-mat, pawns, dice, simplified rules, and pre-generated characters. It's easy to play and has well-written instructions for GMs who've never run a game before.


Heeding a grand-daughter's pleas; rescuing a kindly sage from an ogre; and redeeming a changling. Suitable for kids, fast, and well-written module for new GMs. And free

PF2 Torment And Legacy Demo adventure.


Children have got a lot of imagination, but they aren't used to find a solution by means of planned strategy, social skills as diplomacy, or they are too daredevil or too coward.

And as DM or GM their story is more like a "rail shooter" videogame, only a linear path, without more options. Only a choose is the right for them.

I bought "Tiny Dungeons" to my 8y niece, and time ago "Magissa", a RPG to play with kids, but it is only in Spanish language yet. Maybe in the future will be translated to English.


Starfinder and the Starfinder beginner box have been huge successes with my kids and their friends.

I've heard good things about "No Thank You Evil!" but I haven't played it myself.
