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.

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

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!

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.

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

Fire Emblem Blazing Blade GBA, Lyndis.

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
