I had the Island of Doctor Brain as a kid, I enjoyed it and was able to beat it at seven or eight years old but the puzzles might be a bit much for any younger kids (iirc there was a tower of hanoi puzzle that was an interesting challenge) and I’m guessing the first game, Castle of Dr Brain, was at a similar level.
Those were aimed at kids but even those might be too much of a challenge depending on the age of the kids in question. And we’re not even going to talk about how quickly I got stuck in Space Quest as an adult.
@5ibelius9insterberg@feddit.org could you give some examples ?? Suitable for absolute beginners ??🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓

Old LucasArts or Sierra games like Escape from monkey island or Kings Quest would be good.
Plus they teach kids to hoard everything because you never know if you needed that custard pie to defeat the Minotaur in act 4.
