For Parents & Guardians: Understanding Our Game Ratings

Game Rating System

We want everyone to have a fun and enjoyable experience at AddictingGames, the largest source of the best free online games including funny games, flash games, arcade games, dress-up games, internet games, shooting games, word games, RPG games, racing games, and much more. Many of our games are appropriate for users of all ages, but some of the games contain mature themes and/or mild violence and are primarily intended for teenagers and young adults. Because everyone can play for free and no registration is required, it is important that adults have the opportunity to understand the site and identify which games are appropriate for their particular household. To educate our users and their adult supervisors on games they may not find appropriate, AddictingGames provides a Game Rating System to assist users in identifying appropriate games given their maturity level. In addition, games with mature themes and moderate violence are flagged with a bomb icon . Adults supervising young people that visit AddictingGames should discuss whether games with a bomb icon are appropriate for the user to play given the maturity level of the user. Check further below for more information on our Game Rating System.

Other Tips for Adults reviewing the site for use by Minors:

  • Consider the user's unique personality and level of maturity. Every young person is different, and adults should use their judgment in deciding which games are appropriate for young people in their care.
  • As with any site, watch what games minors are playing and talk to them about the games.
  • Try playing the games yourself! You'll have fun and be able to provide better guidance for your young person.
  • If you cannot supervise a user's play on the site, and are not comfortable with the young person visiting AddictingGames on his or her own, you may want to consider blocking the site by using commercially available parental control software.
