Do you let your kids win, or go full competitive mode? (lemmy.world)

I realized the best family games don't make you choose. Everyone can compete at their own level—and the youngest player doesn't have to lose for the older ones to have fun.

What's your house rule? 🎮

As a person that rarely interacta with kids, but also have friends that aren't really gamers I think I can give some relatively useful anecdotal advice.

It really depends on the person, their age, if you're in a group or one on one, and skill level. If I'm in a group I tend to go for the me vs everyone else role. So everyone combined can still beat me. If it's one vs one then I try to go easy or just look for some way we can play co-op instead competitive, if they're not that skilled or not competitive.
