Who the junior shelf is for

Junior is the shelf for younger players and the adults sitting next to them: colouring books, dress-up and makeover sets, simple cooking and pet games, and gentle matching. Two checks decide entry. The first action has to be obvious without reading a paragraph, and nothing may link out to a store, a chat or a sign-up mid-game. There is no fail state here that punishes a child for experimenting. Sessions run five to fifteen minutes, usually with the sound on.

Every game on this shelf opens in the browser with no download. Each title has its own note on why it is here — how we choose games.
