Build a safe game with your child, around the things they love
Free games are full of adverts, chat with strangers and “buy more gems” pop-ups. So make one together instead. Your child dreams up the characters and the rules, and I turn them into a real game they can play and show their friends.
The worries most parents share
Children love games. Parents worry about what comes with them.
Safe by design, fun by default
Designed together
A design session with your child: their characters, their world, their silly rules. Time together that you both enjoy.
Built on their interests
Football, dinosaurs, space, food combos: the game is about whatever they’re into right now.
No adverts or purchases
No adverts, no coins, no loot boxes and nothing to buy, ever.
No chat with strangers
There is no chat and no way for anyone to contact your child.
Nothing collected
No accounts and no tracking. The game doesn’t collect any personal information.
Plays anywhere
It runs on phones, tablets and computers from a link, so they can show grandparents and friends.
A real example: Pickle Popsi
Pickle Popsi started as my son’s idea about mixing silly foods together. We designed it side by side, and it’s now a real game with its own website that he’s proud to show people. Play it at picklepopsi.com.

Frequently asked questions
Are there games for kids with no adverts?
Yes. Every game built here has no adverts, no in-app purchases and no chat, because it’s made just for your child.
Why do free games have so many adverts and purchases?
Most free games earn money from adverts and in-app purchases, so they’re designed to keep children watching and spending. A game built for your child doesn’t need to do either.
How can I connect with my child over gaming?
Designing a game together is a great way in. You talk about what they love, make decisions together, and end up with something you both made.
What age is it for?
It works well for children from about 5 to 12. Younger children can describe ideas while you help, and older ones often want to design levels themselves.
What do we need?
Just a phone, tablet or computer with a web browser. There’s nothing to install and no account to create.
Is any data collected about my child?
No. The games don’t use accounts, tracking or cookies, and don’t collect personal information.
