Island Time VR

Best PS4 Kids Games of April 2018

We’re seen a fair few silly games come to PlayStation VR since its launch, such as Job Simulator, but Island Time may be the silliest yet. You are stranded on a tiny island and need to do whatever you can to survive. You get regular deliveries and you need to use the items inside to make fire, cook food, and scare off seagulls. Learning new tricks for surviving is fun, even if you’ll set yourself on fire once or twice, and Carl the Crab (charmingly voiced by Kinda Funny’s Greg Miller) is a great companion. If they can get to grips with the awkward PlayStation Move controllers, kids will be laughing their head off playing Island Time VR. And as a little bonus, the playthroughs should last no longer than 20 minutes. If you’re torn, you can check out our review.

Owlboy

Owlboy may follow a character called Otus who embarks on an adventure to defeat a gang of pirates who pillaged his village, but the game is more child-friendly than that synopsis sounds. The game’s controls are pretty easy to master, the gameplay is mostly easy to play, aside from a few boss fights. The story is also filled with charming characters that play a vital role in the wonderful story. All of those things come together perfectly for a game that’s great for adults and kids alike. You may have played it earlier in the year when it launched on Switch, but it looks stunning on PS4.

The Adventure Pals

The Adventure Pals is a perfect game for the family. It is a platformer that’s inspired by cartoons and other classic games in the genre. It sees you and your best friends (a giraffe and a rock) embark on an adventure to save the world and stop your dad from turning into hotdogs. It features light RPG mechanics and some tricky yet fun challenges, but it’s the game’s personality that makes it the perfect game for kids. It’s colorful, often hilarious, and a great intro to more mature platforming. Simply jumping around, finding all the collectibles, and taking on the unique bosses can make for hours of fun. If only there were more substantial co-op options.
