Co-op Game "Think of the Children" is Coming to the Xbox One
Ok, we don’t know how to even start this news, given the fact that this game is said to be a ’parenting simulator’. Regardless, this cooperative game, called Think of the Children, is coming out on September 26th for Xbox One, priced at $12.99 USD.
So, what is the premise of this game? Well, little Bobby’s dead, the BBQ’s on fire, Jen’s eating poisonous berries and the birthday cake still needs icing.
You are hauled before the Court for bad parenting, the Prosecution presents a series of events that will either condemn or exonerate you: a birthday party at the park, a day at the zoo, a camping trip, an unexpected visit to the Australian Outback and more. But each of these locations proves to be far more dangerous than they sound--even the tamest of environments are filled with deadly hazards.
Team up with other parents or fly solo as a single parent and play through each event in flashback to prove your parenting skills--and your innocence--to the judge, and avoid going to jail. Success depends on you working together, getting your tasks done, and most importantly, keeping the kids ALIVE!
The game features 1-4 player couch co-op, Twitch and Mixer integration that allows streamers to name the children after random viewers, a wide range of levels, the ability to customise and save characters as families, level rankings (for those who love a challenge) and a myriad of customisation unlocks, Think of the Children is a fast-paced task management game with a colourful comedic twist.
