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

Main character:

Lost in random Beyond good and evil Night in the woods Infamous first light A hat in time Spiritfarer Celeste

Good overall:

Final Fantasy X Bioshock Infinite ( saw your age update lol) Ratchet and Clank rift apart

That’s what I can think of from the top of my head. I’ll see if I can come up with some more.

From the link you posted I highly recommend “Kena: Bridge of Spirits”. Gorgeous game with a solid story and fun gameplay. Great job for a small studios first game.

Ignore the age inappropriate ones obviously

Kena: Bridge of Spirits and Horizon Zero Dawn would be my recommendations.

If you have a switch Pikmin 4 lets you make your own little character person. Its quite fun. There are quite a few Digimon games too. Other than that the ones that stick out in my mind aren't really age appropriate. There was a Drakenguarde that had a woman as the main character. I heard they're making a new Princess Peach game tho.

To be quite honest I did not read through all the comments to see if this has been suggested already, but Child of Light comes to mind!

I just finished playing Lost in Random. The graphics are a bit dark, but the story and action is good. No blood or gore or anything though.

It was surprisingly good and, if you've got a Xbox, it's on Game Pass for free.

They're not particularly old. There's a few games as recent as this year there. But then, can you really trust the quality of a list that includes 'Laura' (sic) Croft?

What platforms do you play, and how old is she? Because there's no point in us recommending particularly grisly PS exclusives like The Last of Us Part 2 if you're an Xbox player with a 6 year old.

Ugh, sorry - my original wording wasn't clear. I meant "too old for her". Post has been edited

[–] Vordus@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 years ago

Ah, I suspected as much immediately after posting but didn't connect the dots in time!

I originally bought this game years ago to play co-op with my then girlfriend, but I think it can work for your purposes too - Never Alone
