My girlfriend has never really gamed. But she’s now forced to move less than she would like to (health problem) and she’s getting bored. I was thinking of introducing her to a game or two that we could play together. She’s not the real action game type, and seeing as she has no experience with controller/mouse and keyboard I was thinking starting simple.

I can’t think of anything else than Factorio, as she likes organizing/keeping track of stuff.

Would you recommend against that or have anything better in mind? Let me know!

Stardew valley is 2D so fewer controls to learn than a 3D game. It also has a cute art style.

And lots of additional content in mods (you can do that for her, it’s pretty simple).

Another one, Universim. Oh, and Roller Coaster Tycoon 2, maybe Sims 3/4.
