Starlink: Battle for Atlas | Best video games for kids
We talked extensively about Starlink: Battle for Atlas in our review but, in a nutshell, what do we need to know? In the Ubisoft game we control a spacecraft and, exploring an alien system, we fight against evil robots, together with our team of heroes. The real peculiarity, however, is linked to what is out of the game: the game includes a model of a shuttle, with weapons and characters.
The model is mounted on the controller and attached to the console with a cable: in this way, the child will be able to see in the game the ship he is holding in his hands. Moreover, after the hour of the videogames, he can continue his adventures using the spacecraft.
- Difficulty: Selectable, at the lowest difficulty it is suitable for all ages.
- Should I help the child in any way?: Yes. Younger children will not be able to attach and detach the model from the controller - the strength and precision of a teenager is required, at least.
- Are there any additional packages of any kind?: Yes, there are many ships, characters and weapons. They can be purchased as a later gift to keep your child playing, without buying another toy.
- What do you need to play?: Any platform: PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch
Starlink Starter Pack Switch - Nintendo Switch - In Starlink: Battle for Atlas you lead a heroic team of interstellar pilots with the aim of freeing the Atlas solar system from the Forgotten Legion

You have to fight, jump and solve small puzzles, but above all they are very long and full-bodied games: if the child gets passionate, it will take a long time before doing everything!
