Review of Hero Kids!

Tim Knight at the awesomely named HeroPress (not to be confused with Hero Forge Games, which is me) has just posted a review of Hero Kids:

Review of Hero Kids by Justin Halliday

I'm only going to bore you a couple of quotes from this lovely review:

"The book is gorgeously illustrated with hero and monster art by Eric Quigley, which has a very 'easy-on-the-eye' smooth cartoony/anime style about it."

"Hero Kids manages to model the core aspects of more adult games in a very simple fashion and looks like the perfect game for young wannabe gamers."

Short review of Hero Kids...

From DriveThruRPG:

"Hero Kids is a great way to bring your youngsters into RPGs.   This was supposed to be for my six year old, but the whole family (including my wife!) was able to jump right in!   The game took less then an hour to play, so it kept everyone's attention and was over before they became distracted.   Very easy rulesets that are expandable for different age groups (up to around 10 y/o) and for different sizes of groups.
 
Definitely, worth the purchase and great chance for family RPG fun!"


Nice!
