By “girly” games I mean : games that have a soft/pink color scheme. About slice of life (preferably with romance elements), and non-violent with no/minimal combat.
I’ve already played Stardew Valley, Minecraft and Animal Crossing.
I’ve never played it but ‘Pony Island’ seems to have a pink color scheme and I’m guessing it’s about ponies, so maybe?
I can’t recommend Celeste enough, personally.
I will warn you that the platforming can be challenging, but if it’s too stressful Celeste offers almost unparalleled accessibility options that will allow you fine control over the difficulty so no matter your skill level you’ll be able to progress.
Great story, cozy atmosphere but still emotional impact, and the only “fighting” you do is against yourself.
Amazing game, highly recommend Celeste

My daughter loves A Short Hike and Wobbly Life.
And on her phone Toca Boca World. Though it has a tendency to crash every few months, taking her progress with it.
She also likes Spider-Man but I guess that’s not very “girly”.
A Short Hike is ace!
And it’s not that short; the island to me seems to be an actual mile wide in circumference. There’s lots to do in the one environment.
The Hike itself is short. Took me only a few minutes.
Smushi come home is similar vibes to a short hike and I loved it.
Team Fortress 2 is a fun game about hats. There is a combat element, but it’s not really the important bit.
Unpacking, it’s a relaxing puzzle game with some great environmental storytelling. Gameplay amounts to unpacking after various times moving house throughout a woman’s life. It’s really interesting to see how the different stages of her life are shown by the different living situations she moves into.
I was going to suggest this one!

My wife loves Stardew Valley and Animal Crossing, and she’s been way into Hello Kitty: Island Adventure lately. It seems to split the difference between those things and add some of its own spice on top.
I had childhood PTSD flashbacks reading “adventure Island” without ever having played any animal crossing games.
Reply wrong answers only here! xD
Duke Nukem 3D…Because it has strippers and manly muscles on the front cover.
Doom is the only right answer. That soft pink mist as the light catches the spray of blood from your vanquished enemies.
That Dead or Alive beach game
It’s all about girls!
Manhunt is a classic girly game
Gris
Darktide?
I feel like spiritfarer is in this vein. Really cozy game
But prepare to cry 🥲.

Oh, also the Life is Strange games are great.
I enjoyed the first one very much.
The latest one is one of the worst, most awkward, uninspired, terribly written, bullshit games I’ve ever seen, though. It’s absolutely hilarious.
Oh yes, definitely avoid the last one, Double Exposure.
But Lost Records: Bloom & Rage, by the same dev as the first Life is Strange is supposed to be decent. But I want to wait until all episodes are available before I play that.
Oh no, I meant Lost Records hahaha. It’s completely horrible in every aspect, to the point of being hilarious. The reviews it’s getting baffle me. It’s easily the worst of them all.

It’s not an action/combat game but there are violent parts in the story
