How long should kids play Thank Goodness You're Here!?

Our session recommendation for Thank Goodness You're Here! is up to 120 minutes per day. It is derived from the game's own structure (natural stopping points, compulsion-loop design, monetization pressure, and social dynamics), not from a universal screen-time dose.

Session recommendations are design-based heuristics. Evidence linking specific daily durations to child outcomes is limited, and context matters as much as time; treat this as a starting point for household rules, not a clinical threshold.

What are the main risks of Thank Goodness You're Here!?

The primary risks are mild violence and some suggestive language, consistent with its comedic and slightly mature themes. There are no significant compulsion-loop design, monetization, or social interaction risks.
