There are only a few games that have achieved as much popularity as the GTA franchise, but they're not exactly targeted at kids.

Players love the open-world genre popularised games like GTA, but the content in those games isn't suited for kids. The GTA franchise is filled with games that are extremely violent and suggestive.

However, there are plenty of great open-world games like GTA that are appropriate for kids. These are 5 of the best games in the open-world genre that even kids can enjoy.

Minecraft is an open-world game in every sense of the word. The game is only limited by one's imagination. Minecraft is one of the best games that fully embodies the 'sandbox-style' games popularized by GTA.

The game gives you full control of the world. Although there is combat in the game, it isn't close to what the GTA series has.

4) Lego City Undercover

Lego City Undercover is an extremely fun action/adventure game that borrows heavily from the GTA franchise, but the content is age-appropriate for kids.

Grow Home takes a lot of inspiration from movies like Wall-E and Hitchhiker's Guide to Galaxy.

The game gives you control of a robot named BUD (Botanical Utility Droid), and is tasked with oxygenating its homeworld by growing and climbing a 'Star Plant'.

The players can freely explore the open-world akin to GTA games but share no other similarities apart from that.

2) Super Mario Odyssey
