We've given our games a PG-13, meaning there's no violence, adult themes, or gory scenes. The dialogue may include a few mild swear words, but only within the boundaries of age-appropriate content.
The puzzles can be quite challenging, even for grown-ups, so we always recommend children play with an adult who can provide guidance.
Hallows Hill is more on the spooky side than outright scary, so should be no problem for kids who won't be unsettled by a ghostly tale or a bit of a jump scare.
However, we've had many escapees from 11+ and hundreds of great reviews from families who've played together. Our Trustpilot page is a good place to get the lowdown direct from players!
*Please note that Hallows Hill contains references to historical practices of Spiritualism and features a section involving a Ouija board.
