As a rule, I don’t play Mature-rated games with my kids around (who are 5 and 2.5 years old). However, I bend the rule a bit if what I’m doing in the game is not mature oriented stuff.

For example, in working to get all the achievement points in Assassin’s Creed, I spent some extra time just running around the cities and climbing all the high point towers. Since that involves no violence/etc, I allowed my son to watch me play (as a side note it was actually educational as we talked about the time period and the types of houses/buildings, and the fact there were no cars, etc).

Anyway, a few weeks later, out of the blue, he drew me the below rendition of Altair at the top of a tower and the two carts of hay to jump into.
