Smart Gaming: How Parents Can Keep Kids Safe Online

Parents can enhance kids’ safety during online gaming by using privacy settings, researching games, enabling age checks, keeping personal information private, and utilizing parental controls and security tools.

Smart Gaming: How Parents Can Keep Kids Safe Online

(Family Features) Playing video games can be a fun, social experience. However, online gaming also poses real risks, especially for kids. As a parent, you don’t necessarily need to be a gamer yourself to help keep your children safe when the controller is in their hands.

Consider taking proactive steps like these to create a healthy online gaming environment for kids of all ages.

Check System Privacy Settings
As a first line of defense – before your child even starts gaming – spend some time in the device or console privacy settings. Here you can turn off sharing, disable location tracking, limit microphone and camera access and restrict how other users can interact with your child’s profile. Similarly, many games and platforms include built-in privacy settings that can be tailored to your child’s age and online experience. These settings may allow you to limit who can view your child’s profile or send a friend request, message or voice chat.

Research Games
Because not all games are created equal, look up game ratings through a service such as ESRB before buying or downloading to understand the maturity level of the game and determine if it’s appropriate for your child. To take it a step further, read reviews from other parents or watch gameplay videos to see if you deem not only the content but also the social interaction acceptable.

Use Facial Age Estimation
Online platforms are increasingly looking for ways to keep users safe, and that includes added levels of verification. As part of a multilayered approach to safety, Roblox is the first online gaming platform to require age checks for users of all ages to access chat features, enabling age-appropriate communication and limiting conversations between adults and minors. These secure age checks are designed to be fast, easy and secure using Facial Age Estimation technology directly within the app.

“Our commitment to safety is rooted in delivering the highest level of protection for our users,” said Matt Kaufman, chief safety officer at Roblox. “By building proactive, age-based barriers, we can empower users to create and connect in ways that are both safe and appropriate.”

Once age-checked, users are assigned to one of six age groups: under 9, 9-12, 13-15, 16-17, 18-20 or 21 and older, ensuring conversations are safe and age appropriate. Age checks are optional; however, features like chat will not be accessible unless an age check is completed. Chat is also turned off by default for children under age 9, unless a parent provides consent after an age check.

Keep Personal Information Private
It’s seldom a bad idea to be extra cautious when interacting with strangers online, even if they seem friendly enough while playing the game. Teach children what information not to share, including their full name, address, birthday, school name, phone number, email address, passwords or any photos that may contain any personal information (like a house number or school logo) in the background. Also encourage a screen name and generic avatar for added privacy.

Turn on Parental Controls
Designed to allow parents a supervisory role in their child’s online gaming experience, parental controls on many platforms include the ability to set schedules and limit playtime, restrict access to certain content or social features, require a password for purchases or set a spending limit.

Avoid Clicking Unfamiliar Links
Player profiles and in-game chats may include links to external sites, including those promising rewards or cheat codes. Because they can be used to gain access to personal information, remind your children to ask an adult before clicking any unfamiliar links while gaming so they can be verified as trustworthy.

Employ Privacy and Security Tools
While system or console-specific settings allow parents to set content restrictions, approve downloads, manage friends lists and more, additional layers of security are sometimes necessary. Extra safeguards such as antivirus and internet security software, DNS (domain name system) filtering and two-factor authentication can also be enabled to help keep kids safe online.

Beam Unveils Veo 3.1-Powered AI Platform: Transforming Videos into Playable Games and Interactive Stories

In a year where generative AI and short-form content are rewriting the rules of digital storytelling, Beam is pushing the boundaries even further. Today, Beam—developed by Phaser Studio Inc.—announced the launch of its Veo 3.1-powered AI platform, a groundbreaking tool that empowers creators to turn ordinary videos into playable mini-games and interactive AI stories, all without writing a single line of code.

Video, Reimagined: From Passive Watching to Active Playing

For decades, video has been the dominant format online—but it’s always been a one-way street: watch, react, repeat. Beam is flipping that script. By introducing “playable video,” Beam merges the worlds of generative AI, interactive media, and game creation. The result? Stories and experiences that aren’t just watched, but actively played and explored.
“Video has become the dominant format on the internet, but it’s always been passive,” says Matt Dukes, CEO of Beam. “Beam turns video into something interactive. By combining Veo 3.1 with a no-code game-creation workflow, we’re giving creators a new medium where stories, games, and short-form content all converge and come to life.”

How It Works: No-Code Creation, Limitless Possibilities

Beam’s platform is powered by a multi-model AI engine, including the latest Veo 3.1 and other advanced video generation models. Here’s what makes it unique:
  • AI-Generated Media: Instantly create video, images, and music using cutting-edge AI tools.
  • Drag-and-Drop Grid Editor: Arrange scenes, add branching choices, and build interactive storylines—all visually, right in your browser.
  • Instant Publishing: Share your playable mini-games and interactive shorts to the web with a single click.
The platform is designed for everyone—from indie storytellers and educators to brands and viral content creators. Early adopters are already bringing to life dating sims, choose-your-own-adventure stories, action-packed mini-games, interactive ASMR experiences, and even wholesome, playable pet tales.

Free Early Access for Creators

Beam is rolling out with an early-access program that offers unlimited free generations. This means creators can experiment, iterate, and publish their first projects without barriers. Looking ahead, Beam plans to introduce monetization, discovery, and distribution tools to help creators grow their audiences and revenue.
One early creator summed it up perfectly: “I’ve used AI video tools before, but Beam is the first time I felt like I was actually building a game, not just generating clips. Being able to turn a video into something people can interact with completely changes how I think about storytelling.”

The Future of Interactive Media

Beam isn’t just another AI tool—it’s a new creative medium. As Dukes puts it, “AI unlocked image creation. Then it unlocked video. Playable video is the next step in the evolution of digital media, and Beam is built specifically for that future.”

About Beam: Beam, from Phaser Studio Inc., is an AI-powered platform that lets anyone turn video into playable mini-games and interactive stories. With Veo 3.1 at its core, Beam brings together AI video, sound, visuals, and easy-to-use branching logic for a true no-code creative workflow.

Dragon Shield Partners with Hasbro and Wizards of the Coast for Official MAGIC: THE GATHERING Accessories

Dragon Shield has partnered with Hasbro and Wizards of the Coast to create premium MAGIC: THE GATHERING accessories featuring iconic game art. Launching with the Legendary and Landfall Series, these sleeves blend durability with visual storytelling, marking a significant evolution for both brands.

Dragon Shield, the go-to name in trading card game protection, just leveled up. The Denmark-based company announced a major licensing deal with Hasbro and Wizards of the Coast to produce official MAGIC: THE GATHERING accessories, bringing decades of iconic game art to their premium product line.

For Magic players who’ve trusted Dragon Shield sleeves to protect their valuable cards, this collaboration means something special: official artwork featuring the legendary creatures and landscapes that define the game’s rich history.

Two New Series Honor Magic’s Legacy

The partnership launches with two distinct product lines that tap into what makes Magic legendary:

The Legendary Series kicks off with The Ur-Dragon, one of Magic’s most beloved legendary creatures. These Dual Matte Art sleeves celebrate the powerful characters that have captivated players since the game’s inception. It’s a fitting tribute to the timeless imagination that keeps millions shuffling up each week.

The Landfall Series takes inspiration from Magic’s foundation—literally. The debut features all five Tarkir: Dragonstorm fetch lands in their showcase forms. For players who know that lands aren’t just mana sources but works of art in their own right, this series delivers both beauty and gameplay significance.

When and Where to Get Them

Magic fans attending MagicCon: Atlanta will get first access to these new products, including an exclusive “Dracogenesis” sleeve featuring artwork from the Tarkir Dragonstorm set—chosen specifically to symbolize this new partnership.

Worldwide retail availability is set for late 2025, giving players everywhere the chance to sleeve up with official Magic artwork.

What the Partnership Means

“Working with Hasbro and Wizards of the Coast marks an exciting new chapter for Dragon Shield,” said Kevin Isaacson, Dragon Shield’s CEO. “MAGIC: THE GATHERING has inspired players for decades, and this collaboration allows us to bring our passion for quality and design to a game and community we deeply admire.”

Rebecca Shepard, Vice President of Franchise for MAGIC: THE GATHERING at Wizards of the Coast, emphasized the natural fit: “Dragon Shield is a trusted name among fans, and this collaboration ensures players can protect the game they love with accessories that celebrate the stories, legends, and artistry that make MAGIC legendary.”

Why This Matters for Players

Dragon Shield has built its reputation on durability and design—sleeves that actually last through countless shuffles and gameplay sessions. Now that quality meets official Magic artwork, from the most iconic legendary creatures to the lands that fuel every strategy.

Whether you’re protecting a Commander deck built around The Ur-Dragon or keeping your fetch lands pristine, these new accessories blend practical protection with the visual storytelling that makes Magic more than just a card game.
