Reading a complex rulebook is a solitary, cerebral task. It requires one person to act as the interpreter while the others wait. A video walkthrough, however, is a shared visual experience. Within ten minutes, a good video can explain the theme, the setup, and the core mechanics of a game that might take an hour to decipher on paper.

When a family hits a "roadblock" in a game—a difficult puzzle or a complex boss—the collective brainpower of the group is brought to bear.
