We’re going to highlight fifteen games that we enjoy and happened to feature a female lead protagonist as well.

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

Heyyy, I censored it after OP gave the age. :D

But if your 5yo can handle that game, they are destined for great things 🤘😐🤘

Alien Isolation for a 5 year old. What could possibly go wrong.

Transistor is just a great game.

Once Hades 2 comes out, that is also an option

From what I remember, Ittle Dew would be great to play with a 5 year old. Some good recommendations there!

Spiritfarer is utterly excellent but also extremely sad (the entire game is a hospice care allegory), so if you go into that one keep in mind that at least one of you will probably be crying your eyes out at some point.
