KidWatch › Channel Safety › Elchiki
Solid Clash of Clans content for older kids, but the casual big-spending habits are worth a conversation.
Best for ages 11+
Elchiki is a French-speaking Clash of Clans creator who posts gaming guides, base-building experiments, and progression content. The tone is enthusiastic and pretty friendly. He talks to his audience like they're already fans, uses a lot of game slang, and keeps things moving fast. Nothing crude or offensive in how he communicates.

KidWatch Assessment
Elchiki is a French-speaking Clash of Clans creator who posts gaming guides, base-building experiments, and progression content. The tone is enthusiastic and pretty friendly. He talks to his audience like they're already fans, uses a lot of game slang, and keeps things moving fast. Nothing crude or offensive in how he communicates.
The content itself is genuinely useful for CoC players. He covers strategy for different town hall levels, explains mistakes beginners make, and runs fun challenge-style videos. It's the kind of channel a kid who's into the game would actually learn something from. He clearly knows the game well and explains things clearly.
The one pattern that stands out is spending. He regularly drops real money on in-game purchases, sometimes over a hundred euros in a single video, and he promotes his creator code before purchases. He's not hiding it, but it normalizes pretty heavy spending on a mobile game. Worth talking to your kid about before they start watching regularly.
Flagged Moments from Top Videos
The creator spends over 130 euros in a single session on in-game purchases and actively reminds viewers to enter his creator code before each transaction, blending entertainment with embedded promotion.
Framing massive real-money spending as fun and spontaneous normalizes the idea that dropping large sums on a mobile game is just part of the experience.
The video involves repeated real-money pack purchases throughout, with the creator explicitly promoting his creator code and noting his main worry is his credit card failing, which treats heavy spending as entertainment.
The title and framing around 'best packs' could be read as shopping guidance aimed at players who want to spend, though the content itself is mostly strategic.
What Parents Should Know
Talk to your kid about the difference between watching someone spend money for content and it being a normal or expected part of playing the game.
Make sure your child understands that the creator has a financial incentive when he promotes his creator code before purchases - it's not just a fun game moment.
Check whether in-app purchases are locked on your kid's device before they start watching, since this channel makes spending look exciting and easy.
The strategy and tips content is actually pretty good for kids who are serious about the game, so don't feel like you need to avoid the channel entirely.
Younger kids under 10 might find the pacing and game complexity hard to follow - this channel really lands better with kids who already play Clash of Clans.
If your kid starts talking about wanting to 'max out' their account or buy packs, use it as a chance to discuss how free-to-play games are designed to encourage spending.
Recommended for ages 11+.
