Hi, I’m Lee
I’m the co-founder of TechQuik, and TechQuik Kids is the part of our company that’s closest to my heart. I grew up loving video games, spending all night on my Xbox 360 and all day on my PSP. I always wanted to make games, and now I finally do.
How TechQuik Kids started
When I met my business partner, we started TechQuik to design software for businesses. As a creative break from that work, we made a little game together: SuperFlight, a superhero flying game. We loved making it so much that it didn’t stay little for long.
While looking around for places to share it, we noticed something: there aren’t many children’s game sites that let kids simply play, without some kind of account or sign-up. So we built one. TechQuik Kids is a growing collection of free games that play straight in the browser, on phones, tablets and computers, with no accounts, no sign-up and no chat.
Tested by real kids
We design and build the games ourselves, and every one is tested by real children before it goes live: my business partner’s child and my niece are our toughest critics. They tell us straight away when something is too hard, too easy or just not fun.
Sometimes they surprise us, too. When I first showed my niece Alien Runner, she spent five whole minutes on the main menu dancing along with the alien before she even started running. That’s exactly the kind of joy we want every game to have.
What we care about
- Just play. No accounts, no sign-up and no personal details, ever.
- Safe by design. No chat, no way for strangers to contact children, and no in-game purchases.
- Fair fun. Coins and upgrades are earned by playing, and games are built to be beatable, not frustrating.
- Always growing. We add new games regularly, from action and puzzles to cooking, creating and seasonal favourites.
You can read more about how we keep the site safe on our For Parents page, and find tips for families in our Parent Guides.
Who we are
TechQuik Kids is made by TechQuik Ltd, a software company based in Scotland that also builds software for businesses.
