I’ve recently repaired my old Switch and given it to a friend. Since I suspect they’ll be playing with their 7yo kid, I just wanted to know if you have any recommendations?

The kid doesn’t speak/read English, so the game in question would need to not rely on understanding of the language.

Their native language is Swedish if that has any impact.

Thanks!

    Super Mario Maker and Mario Kart 8 are pretty kid-friendly and you don’t really need to understand the language after you find the play button.

    Ultimate chicken horse is the go to game for my little ones! It’s simple and great fun for multiplayer, but not much single player content.

      Yeah, all Mario games are great. Mario Odyssey, Super Mario 3D World, New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe, all are good suggestion for a kid (and grownups)

    Lots of great suggestions, but I’d like to add Captain Toad Treasure Tracker to the list. The puzzles are fun and they encourage you to think outside the box. Not too difficult and you don’t really need to understand the language.
