# The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Despite its "Everyone 10+" rating, this action-adventure game features frequent combat violence that may be intense for younger children. The open-world gameplay encourages exploration and problem-solving, which are positive, but the consistent action sequences and strong violence warrant parental preview before allowing children under 12 to play.
