Yeah, my kids are 7 and 9, and this is definitely in the "hard game" category for them. They like playing Minecraft (mostly on creative), Pokemon, etc, and they like watching me play games like Zelda, Ori, and Furi. I've even played scarier games with them, but I'm careful about what I let them see (I'll sometimes look up spoilers, pause/skip cutscenes, etc).

They love HP, though we've only let them watch the first four movies (we're making the older one read the books first). Buying it wouldn't be for them, but for me, and they'd watch, and since I'm not as into HP as they are, I need to game to stand on its own, otherwise I'd just wait until they're ready to play on their own.

I'll tell you, there's no blood in the game other than on the environment in some scripted parts of the game. The only other creepy or scary thing in the game would be the zombies.

Eh, my kids survived the first half of Little Nightmares, I think they'll be fine. :)
