Hero Kids has a simple combat and adventuring system which avoids the complex maths of full-blown systems. Hero Kids' opposed dice pool system also keeps the players involved in the game even when it's not their turn.
The combat and adventuring mechanics in Hero Kids are based on six-sided dice¸ so you don't need to find any unusual dice to play!
The core game comes in a 53-page PDF and includes all of the rules and play instructions¸ as well as 10 heroes for the kids to play¸ plus a set of 16 basic monsters (and all of the separate adventures come with additional monsters). The game includes male and female heroes¸ including Warriors¸ Hunters¸ and Warlocks as well as unique heroes like the Rogue¸ Brute¸ Healer¸ and Knight. All of the heroes and monsters also come with printable stand-up minis to use in combat encounters.
Additionally¸ this basic game pack also includes the 20-page introductory adventure 'Basement O Rats'¸ which comes with an extra monster and five illustrated printable encounter maps. Can the kids rescue their friend Roger from the unusually large rats that have overrun the tavern basement?
