So over the Christmas holiday I built a PC for my daughter (12) and my wife (35). I've been trying to find a game that we can all play and would enjoy together.

Some background:

Daughter likes Roblox and Minecraft. That's about it. She doesn't like survival mode in Minecraft, only creative. I don't mind Minecraft but not my go to.
Wife likes Stardew Valley and Animal Crossing. Doesn't care for Minecraft or Roblox
I'm a WoW veteran, enjoy RimWorld, and alot of Counter Strike 2 at the moment.

I'm trying to find something that might be able to meet all of our interests so we can do something together on a Friday/Saturday night. Would be nice to find a game that is somewhat of a dungeon crawl and has a story attached to it. BG3 might be too advanced for the 12 year old, as she probably won't hold the attention span to do it.

Not sure if there is an easier BG3 like game out there? Suggestions welcome!

Give Trine 2 a shot. It's three players, is very easy on the eyes, and is good for keeping stress relatively low. Since all three of you like games, playing games isn't unnatural for you, but playing together is something that can potentially cause some stress between you. A game like Trine keeps that fairly low and is a good entry point that once you done with it, hopefully the experience was positive and you can move on to some other things together.
