Looking for games with strong female leads for my daughter (even just to watch as I play). Came across this link, but they're a bit age-inappropriate. Any suggestions from the community? (gameranx.com)

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

I liked horizon zero dawn a lot. It's mild violence, but mostly with mech dinosaurs.

Aloy is a fantastic protagonist in it, too! Some of the scenes might be a little much for a 5 year old, though. I remember a whole town getting slaughtered in the 1st one.

Yeah I’d say it’s probably appropriate for like a 10 year old but a 5 year old is probably not only going to not be ok with some of the content but also will get extremely frustrated with how the game is stealth and tactics driven

My daughter played the first one while she was kinda young. Explored mostly, picked of a few robo dinos in the beginning section, but absolutely loves it. Don't need to complete it to enjoy it.
