    [​IMG]Most of us here discovered the amazing possibilities of RPGs when we were kids. Game Informer's Top of the Table column tells us how to share that RPG magic with kids today.

    Ask anyone who has played role-playing games with friends or family over the years; there are few better ways to build relationships, foster laughter, and have a great time than sitting together to create a story. For all of the fantastic worlds RPGs take us to, the opportunity to come together with other people is the best part of the experience. But what if you want to share that laughter and adventure with your daughter or son, niece or nephew, or even the kids you mentor in a club or school?

    Playing role-playing games is a fantastic way to bring kids out of their shell, and give them power to shape a story as it comes into being, rather than always witnessing it from the outside like they might with a movie or book. It's also an amazing way to bring adults and kids together, and build trust through a shared experience.

    If you're the adult, it's up to you to understand the game, and most of the time, to be the gamemaster who guides the story. But don't be intimidated. Follow the suggestions below to help ensure everybody has a great time. And if you're looking for great role-playing games to try with younger players, flip over to the second page for some RPGS specifically designed with kids in mind.​
