Got this way back when they had it as a weekly bundle and paid $25 for the full bundle. They actually added more games to it later when they put them on steam which was nice. But yeah, if you have kids it's great. Most of them are installed on my computer and the kids will often pick one of them to play.

The thing is, I'm a parent. My daughter is 7. She should be an ideal candidate for these games.
But they look dated. And when everyone else in her class is playing Fortnight and she's used to playing Switch games like BotW, these games just aren't going to cut it.
Without some sort of remaster, they are purely for nostalgia purposes. And I never played them as a kid, so they have no hold over me. shrug

Dated doesn't make them bad games, though. I never played them as a kid either (I'm too old), but my kid loved them a couple years back when she was 4. Of course her classmates weren't playing Fornite then ;)

"...everyone else in her class is playing Fortnight..." lazy parents these days, not mentioning PEGI-12 rating :/

Nah, I'm firmly in the camp that the sooner you can get kids into games the better.
My mum, for instance, has never played any games. And she's now too old...she justy can't get her head around them. Which in turn means she doesn't understand the "language" of games, either the literal vocabulary or the more symbolic visual keys.
She wouldn't know that when the black bars come in the top and bottom of the screen that a cut scene is starting, she wouldn't be able to control a 3d camera, she wouldn't even know what WSAD is. And the knock on effect of that is that she is useless with all technology. She can't work her phone. Her laptop spends more time gathering dust than being used.
But my daughter, and the kids in her class, are in that world, the way we are...immersed and fully fledged citizens. And in 8 years time, when all of the earths warfare is waged via large mecha, the younger generation will no-scope 360 us into oblivion, because we'll be too old and slow, our joints seized and tired. We'll put up a fight, for sure, but my mums generation will just roll over and become fuel for the bio-machines.
Y'know what I mean?

I have to disagree about the age thing.. No one is too old to start using technology.. Its a learning curve that people have to get over - just like driving a car for example.
There was once some 70 year old lady interviewing me with huge-ass tablet. She set the interview up and seamlessly could operate it. Turning it on, setting up the interview, putting information in and navigating the app. She was slower, but she was learning and she did well..
Ive heard these lines "im too old" from a lot of my relatives. Most of them eventually switched from old phones to smartphones (or at least understood how to answer a call), learned to use computers (from not knowing how to turn it on, to paying bills, checking email and surfing youtube). For contrast my step dad just ignored it and cant even properly turn on a computer, while some of my friends parents who are in their 50s work fluently with computers, different CAD softwares even.
And most people who I am half their age can operate smart TVs and those recording dealies much better than myself (and I have education in IT software development)
I wont really get into discussion about kids as I dont have any myself so I doubt im objective to comment. But regarding older people - I see no obstacle aside being stubborn

My childhood right here, and the rest of the collection I never got to play as a child.

again average close to t3....i think ign is modifying it manually so we want pay more for more games
Comment has been collapsed.
kind of fishy indeed, can't remember when was last time it wasn't close to Tier 3 :P
at old times there weren't that high average price for bundles :P might be the fact that there used to be better games at lower tiers, so more ppl bought them
Comment has been collapsed.
I remember playing these games when I was kid. In fact, for a long time... These were some of the only games I had on PC, so there was a lot of replayability.
Comment has been collapsed.
Do you think kids would actually like playing these today? I used to love them, but I'm not sure I would actually play them if I bought them. I do have young nieces, though. I would play through with them, but I'm unsure they would actually like them. They'd likely rather play ad infested games on grandma's iPad.

duno maybe buy tier one because like $1 is not much to spend

It depends on how old the kids are. I saw an earlier comment that said these look dated. Young children really don't notice things like that. My young cousin has just turned 9, and he's only really started being picky about "old stuff."

FWIW the games on Steam are just game assets (no binaries) and ScummVM. Once you download them from Steam you can copy the assets to your own ScummVM install. Just like DOSBox games.

Can anyone tell me, more or less, which is the age recomendation for each game (or group of games)? (I bought the bundle long ago but redeemed the games today)
I have 2 children (2 and 4 years old) and I speak in English with them. Where we live there are 2 languages (a minorized one and a socially more powerful one). I used to be an English teacher so I gave it a go, my first child responded very well to English and so is doing the second child. I am not a native speaker and these games may help them improving their English level.
Thank you for answering.

I believe the general range is 4-10 years old. The best thing to do is check the steam pages (linked above) and also look up each series and see what is listed at places like pcgamingwiki, wikipedia, mobygames, etc.
