European game service
Metaboli --
partner to
GameTap -- has announced its plans to launch the Chill-Out Pack, a service dedicated to downloadable, family-friendly casual games. The service is set to include over 200 casual games, including recognizable movie licenses like
The Chronicles of Narnia and
Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, according to
Casualgaming.biz. The service will update with new titles every week as well.
The Chill-Out Pack also offers new parental controls, including the ability to create sub-accounts for children, which allow parents to set parameters for their little ones, such as limiting playtime and deciding which games the kids can play.
Honestly, we thought it sounded like a great idea, until we discovered that the pack
offers Peggle. As a warning to unsuspecting parents: Know that
Peggle has the ability to
tear your family apart. Seriously, you might want to hide it from the kids.
