Think of the Children

Fun game, hate the last level... PS: impossible alone

Think of the Children could've been very fun, you're supposed to keep a max. of 6 children alive each level while getting tasks done. At first I thought that maybe I was having skill issues but no, I found out that the game does nothing to scale the difficulty, i.e. 1 player gets the same volume of things to do as 2, 3 or 4 players (the max. number of players that this game can have is 4). Goes without saying that getting high grades is always a challenge but later even getting a passing grade feels next to impossible in some levels because the children decide they want to commit self non-existence 0.1 seconds after you've saved them so that leaves little to no time for doing any extra tasks for the score, lest you risk losing kids and they're the most important score wise. The controls are floaty and often times I've missed children by 1 pixel only to take ages to turn back around, that means wasting time. The jetpack level feels bugged aswell since I try to put jetpacks on the kids, take them out of harm's way they explode regardless. I try to move them above the lake, take them out of harm's way, they die regardless. My guess is that 4 players trivialize this game, otherwise single player is really not a fun time. I'll return to edit the review if and when I'll play this in a duo, otherwise all this game did was further reinforce my convictions to not have kids. :P

It'd be a fun game, but it's designed for 3 or 4 players. Below that, you don't have a chance to beat even the first level. And there is no online multiplayer, either.

Hope I'll never have kids

this game is one of the reasons i dont want kids

Do not pay full price for this game. I paid 1 dollar, and for that price it would be fine. The replay-ability isn't there for me. I think its fun for a dollar to play and struggle through, because this game is kinda hard for me. But there isn't enough substance here for 10 dollars full price. I'd give it 3 stars out of 10. It's fun because of the challenge but gets tiresome fast.

My kid drank bleach and It was SUPER FUN!

Childcare simulator. See children die as a result of your skill failure at taking care of them. Just...no.

Laborious in a very unfun way, especially when you're playing with just another player (don't even want to think about playing alone...)

Does anybody know how to do multiplayer on pc?
