It is about the exact opposite of a kiddy franchise. Fire Emblem games are some of the toughest SRPGS out there. (aside from the ones made by the guys who made Stella Dues and Ruining Blue Earth.)
Kids could play it... but they'd have to be fairly smart kids... as it's the kind of game that would probably piss off your average gamer cause it usually requires thinking.
The battle system and control scheme are well... that of a SRPG. Though a little deeper since you have to worry about weapons breaking and similar things. Less customization then other games but that's one of the reasons why it's gameplay is go deep.
I like em.
