Self hosting kids-friendly multiplayer games on Raspberry Pi 4
I'm working on a little project and I would like to have some multiplayer game that I can play with the kids. Ideally they should be little kids friendly, so no doom or quake.
I tried Minecraft, bedrock but the latency over wifi (and it needs to be over wifi for my project) is really bad.
In an ideal situation, I'd like to have one or more games that
Can be played in multiplayer mode
Ideally you only need the browser
Is relatively lightweight, so can be run on a Raspberry Pi with Wifi
Any suggestions besides the one I mentioned? Maybe some emulator that can be used? Thanks!

one fun trick though if you can carefully peel back the top half of one napkin and then pour a silly amount of salt inside, then tuck the napkin top back in… so when your dad comes back and yanks you guys out some napkins it triggers PTSD and then while you’re laughing thats when you realize thats the last time Dad will come back.
it’s like all sex is make up sex, but they also hate themselves and want you to agree with them. just because they are begging you to piss in their mouth doesn’t mean its awesome though.
