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!

If she would like to get in to more action games, one with a strong story, like the last of us could be a pathway, played on easy/story mode.

Id also second casual games as a pathway to more involved games. Overcooked is white hectic and introduced a few gaming mechanics from others. It's essentially crafting against a timer. To progress, she'll need to get better at controls, but the learning curve is gradual enough that she'll.have fun.

Rayman (legends?), I play coop with my kid. He dies often ,but it's not an issue as you only lose progress when you both die.
