Suggestions of coop games to play with kids 10 & 12?

3 years ago by mattaw to c/boardgames

Hey folks, I'd love a few suggestions of coop games to play with my kids. Sentinels of the Multiverse is a bit too much for Sarah while Joshua gets a bit too into the choices.

Thanks!

any other games they do like? what works for one 12 year old won't for another.

Menara - cooperative dexterity game, where you building towers Legendary - Marvel Superhero deckbuilding . "Semi" coop, but if you tweak the difficulty, the focus is on coop Flashpoint:Fire Rescue - Firemen. rescue people, fight fires.
Pandemic/Forbidden Island - this is the 'classic' coop. it's a little puzzly for my tastes, but it's popular.
D&D Adventure Games - Wrath of Ashardalon, Castle Ravenloft. alittle older, but scratches a coop dungeon crawler itch.

my son (11) really enjoys Aeon's End and Spirit Island.

Seconded Flashpoint. I've had success with that game with people from 8 to like 80.

My son likes MTG, sentinels (but gets distracted), chess.

My son and daughter like Monopoly deal and Uno.

Thanks for the info I've started researching your suggestions already.
