Multiplayer Apps

Looking for apps to play as a family or with friends? Or just trying to avoid the tantrums that come with two kids and one device? Here are several great apps that let kids play together -- or against each other. Some of the apps on this list provide you with the ability to play on the same device, while others are multiplayer games that allow you to play over the same Wi-Fi network on more than one device. A few on this list are online multiplayer games, so be sure to talk with your kids about online safety before they play. For more family fun, try these Party Games for Families and Friends.
