Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

Edit: Daughter is only 5 so she's unlikely to play much but she watches me and as long as it's not too violent, it should be fine

Sayonara Wildhearts. I bet she could play it herself

[–] Iceblade02@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Old but gold, the Longest Journey, since you seem to want something story centered.

Ōkami.

Well, she's a wolf, but she's the Sun Goddess too.

[–] OscarRobin@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

I think Tchia may be just what you're looking for!

[–] BroBot9000@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Oh! For a solid coop experience check out any of the little big planets. Lots of cute costumes for character customization.

For a gender neutral character I can recommend Toem! It’s incredibly cute and charming.

Celeste. It's tough as nails, but it's so rewarding and the story is.....gah!

[–] Stinkywinks@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

There's that Disney dream light game or something like that, definitely seems child friendly.

[–] SgtAStrawberry@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Very child friendly and lots of fun, at least last I played, and I can’t imagine Disney of all people really changing that to much.

Baldur's Gate 3

[–] firewalk@feddit.de 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Alba: A Wildlife Adventure

It's very wholesome and relaxing. She can probably play this herself.

Hey!

It's not coop, but I recently played "The Big Con" (with Gamepass) and it's more of a fun ride with an easy control scheme and decent puzzles. While the FeMC isn't the classic "strong female lead", she is a teenager growing up and develops throughout the game and it's story.

I found it very funny (your daughter might not get every joke, tough), depicts some good topics (trust, family and responsibility) in a very lighthearted way with a cute art style. :)

The Longest Journey / Dreamfall / Dreamfall Chapters. Absolutely magical games.

[–] B0NK3RS@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Roughly what age are we talking? The list you linked is accurate and pretty much all the mainstream ones. Also,

  • Telltales The Walking Dead

  • Minecraft Story Mode

[–] ArugulaZ@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Ms. Pac-Man, but of course!

There's always Animal Crossing and its many sequels... you're not obligated to play as a female, but it's at least an option. Metroid has a female lead, but those games are probably a little beyond your daughter's grasp at the moment.

Beyond good and evil

[–] detour@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

One I haven't seen mentioned yet, Dreamscaper. Its an action roguelite about a girl who battles her inner "demons" at night and lives her life in a new town during the day.
