While this site offers a variety of games from many developers, the quality of the games
can be inconsistent, with 🔑 some lacking clear (or any) instructions, which reduces the
fun for the site. Poki presents a large collection of games 🔑 that can be played in a
browser in a visual setting, with
showing off the newly added options. But 🔑 making
the info for each title more consistent so that the text communicates what gameplay
involves, what keys make characters 🔑 move, and other important information would help
gamers decide what they want to play -- and understand how to get 🔑 started. Adding
information that explains which titles reinforce math, strategy, and other skills would
also help younger players get more 🔑 out of their gaming experience.
That said, the site
does have a decent number of games to play, and some can 🔑 be entertaining. Players can,
for instance, access online versions of classic board games like Connect 4, try their
hand at 🔑 soccer, or try to win a matching game. In addition, users can't comment, and
games are played within the browser, 🔑 which should mean younger players won't end up on
a site with free-for-all content. But Poki wasn't designed specifically for 🔑 kids -- and
while there are some age-appropriate games, kids can easily find options that feature
shooting, animals stabbing other 🔑 animals, and other questionable imagery. Given the
number of violent games and ads, parents may not be particularly eager to 🔑 let their
children spend much time on the site without discussing which games they plan to play;
even taking that 🔑 approach, supervising kids' usage would probably be a good idea. Poki
may give players access to loads of games, but 🔑 its lack of info, questionable quality,
and heavy amount of violence mean that only older gamers should take a look 🔑 with
parental guidance.
