Game recommendation for 12 y/o kid

[Astrum]

Please recommend a good PC game for 12 y/o kid. Thanks

Well, the most obvious is Minecraft but it's hard to recommend something without knowing anything about them, boy girl? any hobbies or interests?

 

It's pointless anyone recommending Lego Avengers if they don't like Superhero stuff?

Any of the Lego games might be a good place to start. A whole lot of variety there. My cousins kids love those games and they range anywhere from 3 to 14 years old.

 

Depending on your what they are gaming on some of the Mario games and Wii party games could also be good too.

It is a boy, and he would like a game with action. He does play Minecraft already.

I assume illegaloperation was trolling/joking. I would 100%, not recommend GTA 5 for a 12 year old. Like another member mentioned, the Lego games are fantastic and a ton of fun. There is action and adventure within every Lego game; but it is not over the top violence and perfect for kids and even adults. Rocket League is another fun one, its not action in the usual sense, but is very addicting and fun to play. I always enjoyed the Roller Coaster Tycoon games as a kid, those were fun. Overwatch is a fun game, has more animated violence but you play online and unfortunately, there will be some rotten apples on there. Heroes of Might and Magic 3 was another fun one.

Ori and the Blind Forest would be a great game for a 12 y/o

Portal 1 and 2?

Strange not to see anyone recommending Terraria.

If you do consider buying GTAV for the kid, consider TES series.

I'd recommend anything from the Forza series too, large open world with a lot of things to do, you can spend hours in it racing and completing tasks

Hearthstone

Portal

Child of Light

Lego

Sim City

Another shout for any of the Lego games, especially the new Worlds one that's come out, it's like minecraft but with lego.

 

Forza is another good shout from the overlord up there.

 

Star Trek online's pretty good if they're a bit Sci-Fi. Free to play, too

 

Also, Mario and Zelda if they've got those platforms

 

Finally, Call of Duty? every other 12yo kid seems to play that

Please no. We already have enough brainwashed teenagers as it is.
