Monkey Quest vs Shelter
Monkey Quest
Monkey Quest is a child-friendly MMORPG/ virtual world game set in the beautiful, isometric (platformer-like) world of Ook. Play as an adorable monkey, which you can customize as you wish, and set off on an RPG-like adventure where you'll complete quests given by other monkeys you meet along the way. The monkey you play as will also need a class, and you can choose from being a Pirate to a Wizard to a Ninja or even to a Viking.Being part of an MMORPG, you'll also get to play with your friends and journey together in a group, battling enemies along the way. As you level up, you'll also gain more powerful and cool-looking skills to help you defeat tougher foes. You can even buy a pet who will help you during combat. For the explorers at heart, there are plenty of locations for you to explore as well.
However, the best thing about this game is that it is designed with a younger audience in mind, and thus, the game has plenty of restrictions in place to help safeguard these younger players from potential cyber harm. This also allows parents to turn this game into a fun family-bonding activity.
That said, Monkey Quest has been shut down quite some time ago and if you're interested to find another game that both you and your kids will be able to enjoy, you might want to take a look at our list of alternative games.
Shelter
Shelter is truly a one-of-a-kind game where you'll get to play as a mother badger who's taking care of her newly-born cubs. Developed by Might and Delight, the game puts you on an exciting yet heartwarming adventure as you travel about with your cubs in tow in hopes of finding the perfect shelter to raise them. In your journey, you and your family will encounter lots of danger and it is up to you - the mama badger - to protect your cubs from harm, whether it is a raging forest fire or a bird of prey.Besides adventure, the game also comes with a second game mode called Nurture. It's a lot like a Tamagochi game where you'll need to head into the game every day (at least once) to give your cubs the stuff they need to survive and also to forge closer bonds with them.
This is one of the breakout indie games of 2013 but it's not the sort of game that will get old with age, so if you love games where you'll get to play as an animal and you enjoy a good story-adventure, then Shelter is your best bet!
