Kids on Brooms Is a Perfect Kid-Friendly Halloween TTRPG
An underrated tabletop game that's loved by those who have played it, Kids on Brooms is essentially an unlicensed Harry Potter TTRPG with a heavy emphasis on gender exploration and personal growth. It deals with themes of magic in a school setting while following its characters through major stages of their lives. The game also uses a unique system where players get to use their entire set of polyhedral dice throughout a campaign that lets the characters grow with the players. Kids on Brooms is a perfect game for younger players and older gamers alike, and the adaptability of its characters allows for an Apocalypse World-like playbook system to really take hold and guide the players on their journeys.

However, while it has similar themes like witches and wizards, and dealing with oppressive systems, Kids on Brooms is far more than a simple Harry Potter role-playing game. In fact, the system neatly lends itself to being a general Halloween TTRPG, given its propensity for one-shots and the multiple sources it takes inspiration from. For these reasons and more, Kids on Brooms is the perfect Halloween TTRPG for players of all skill levels, whether it's played as a one-shot or a longer campaign,
Kids on Brooms Offers Unique Systems From DnD
Kids on Brooms runs on Renegade Games' proprietary Kids on Bikes engine, a rules-light system that emphasizess player focus and narrative motivation. This means it's far easier to pick up than most TTRPGs. Games like Dungeons & Dragons and Pathfinder derive a lot of their fun from math-heavy combat and the manipulation of rules to eke out a narrative of exploration and goal achievement. However, games like Kids on Brooms allow for a quick session of Character Creation before immediately jumping into the story, with little need to explain the rules system in depth.
This is especially the case for the dice system of the game, which associates each polyhedral die with a particular skill type. This ease eliminates a lot of the figuring and mathematical thought that is inherent to other TTRPGs, meaning newcomers should have no real issues playing the game. It's an intriguing and easy system that works for just about any group.
Kids on Brooms Is a Wholesome and Adaptable TTRPG for Halloween
Kids on Brooms' narrative focus is a massive boon for a Halloween-oriented game. It's slightly less likely to completely derail a game, and it's easier to store scares because there isn't a written-in-stone way that the world must work. What's more important than this, though, is the way that the narrative focus is framed. Kids on Brooms is all about creating an inclusive and safe environment for those at the table, emphasizing communication and sensitivity when it comes to serious issues like racism and transphobia. The game's safety tools are as strong as Apocalypse World's, and this agency allows players a great space to express themselves, which is the ultimate goal of most TTRPGs.
Kids on Brooms is truly built for everybody, and it's perfect for a Halloween-season play session. From the fact that you can play with as few as two players to a satisfyingly robust optional card-based combat system, the game is a ton of fun whether played for an entire creepy campaign or a one-night one-shot. Whether for Harry Potter, Halloween, or 52 weeks a year of play, Kids on Brooms offers some of the most unique, welcoming, and potentially creepy gameplay of any TTRPG.
