Little Player

Content

Little Player was (is?) an ongoing bi-monthly magazine intended for the 5-12 age demographic and their parents. Helmed by EGM veteran Martin Alessi, the magazine attempted a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign in 2015 - complete with prototype issue 0 - but failed to reach their intended goal. Shortly after, Martin announced the project would continue. The premiere issue was released in April 2016. Select Barnes & Noble newsstand distribution was announced in July 2016 with issue two.

In January 2019, the public was notified the magazine had been on hold for several months.  Additional status updates and details were announced thru January 2020.  With the passing of Martin Alessi in January of 2022, the magazine is presumed defunct although some back issues are still available via various online digital magazine outlets and www.littleplayermag.com.

Like many modern day 'zines, Little Player was offered in both digital PDF and print formats - the exception being issue #0, which was made available digitally only.  Single issues, subscriptions, and bulk "wholesale" packs were available via the magazine's website for a time.

MISSION STATEMENT:

Little Player Magazine's mission is to provide a safe, fun and advertising-free reading experience that parents can feel good about giving to their kids.  We also want to inspire and teach kids to make good gaming choices and play what is appropriate for their age group.  We only cover and review games that are rated EC, E, and E10+ to ensure that young children are not exposed to content meant for teens or mature audiences.
