It’s an equally amusing and bemusing way to keep you both entertained. Alternatively, let your familial other guide you around their world. Christ, what happened to you? You were so good in Elden Ring the other day. It will see you scrounging for wood, delving underwater for shipwrecks, trapezing over canyons, and yelling at your child to get you out of the hellhole-like mineshaft you fell into like a moron.

You can work together to get from a mud hut to a castle. Few things, though, are more fun than opening up a new world seed and getting started on an adventure. Frankly, if you have a child, they probably know more about it than you (or us), so we won’t bang on about it for too long. Plug in your controllers for some split-screen fun, and off you guys go.

You don’t need to do much to make Minecraft a habitable environment for a family unit. Lego games are typically a safe bet, so you can always sub this one out for one based on a different IP that is more popular with your tribe, and it'll still likely be a great time whether you're teaming up as the Avengers, pottering around Hogwarts together, or whatever else. If you can ever stop arguing about who gets to be Han, that is. The latest (and arguably greatest) in this storied series has just launched to considerable praise from critics and fans alike, with our 9/10 review of The Skywalker Saga lauding the game's 'perfectly pitched playfulness that evens out the highs and lows of the Star Wars main series into a uniformly entertaining experience.' With 400-odd characters, nine movies' worth of content, and more side missions than it should be possible to fit into a video game, Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is a blast, especially with someone beside you playing the Chewie to your Han as you relive the movie magic. There was always going to be a Lego game on a list like this, what with TT Games' blocky twists on some of the world's most popular franchises making for some of the best interactive family entertainment out there.
