PC Games to Play with my Five-Year-Old (lemmy.ca)

My daughter (5) loves to play games with me on my PC. Favorites of hers include Spyro Reignited, Untitled Goose Game, House Flipper, and Skyrim (she basically putts around whatever town I throw her in and steals from the locals' homes).

She is really into anything with simple mechanics, non-scary exploration, and minimal reading/menu navigation. Being able to go into various houses is a huge plus. She loves to snoop.

Tonight she was laughing her ass off while watching gameplay from a game called I Am Cat. I told her I'd get it for her, but unfortunately it's VR-only, and you can't strap those things to a little kid. I believe you have to be 12+ to use them safely without adverse effects on development and motor skills.

When asked just now for anything she'd like to add, she said, "Funny, happy, and beautiful!"

With all of that said, any recommendations?
