  • Summary: Little Bobby’s dead, the BBQ is on fire, Jen’s eating poisonous berries and the birthday cake still needs icing. It’s just another wonderful day out with the kids in Think of the Children, a frantic parenting simulator for up to four players. Hauled before the court for bad parenting andLittle Bobby’s dead, the BBQ is on fire, Jen’s eating poisonous berries and the birthday cake still needs icing. It’s just another wonderful day out with the kids in Think of the Children, a frantic parenting simulator for up to four players. Hauled before the court for bad parenting and endangering the lives of your children, the Prosecutors present a series of events as evidence that will either condemn or exonerate you: a birthday party at the park, a day at the zoo, a camping trip, an unexpected visit to the Australian Outback and more. Each of these locations proves to be far more dangerous than they sound, and even the tamest of environments are filled with deadly hazards. … Expand

    Think of the Children is a chaotic and fun party title. Whether on the beach or in the shops, it’s frantic and mad. You’ll find out a lot about your friends as soon as you get them hooked.

    The gameplay is fun, but really only if you can get some multiplayer going. There is a light story mode and the ability to customize your avatar with characters and clothing you unlock from playing the game. With over 10 stages, many of which also need to be unlocked through gameplay, there is a decent amount of variety and reason to return to the game, but I wouldn’t recommend it for solo players.

    Think of the Children functions best as a form of birth control. If child-rearing happened to be as ugly, stressful, unfun, and buggy as it isThink of the Children functions best as a form of birth control. If child-rearing happened to be as ugly, stressful, unfun, and buggy as it is depicted in this game, teen pregnancy and unsafe sex would be nonexistent. By yourself, beating any stage is a chore and aggravating, much like single-parenting. With three or four people, taking care of the children becomes a mindless babysitting job. With two players, gameplay sits happily between awful and boring. At best, Think of the Children is a poor approximation of Overcooked, perfectly emulating the chaos of cooperation without programming any of the payoff and originality. The best way to enjoy this game is through abstinence.… Expand
