Games for my girlfriend?

I'm looking to buy my girlfriend a game she'll enjoy but I can't seem to find much.
She is into Terraria, Minecraft and she somewhat likes Starbound.

So far I can only think of getting her Prison Architect. Any ideas people of basilmarket?

Otherwise, the Sims is a really good option.

Try older games rather than newer ones. I honestly think gaming was much better 5-10 years ago than it is now.[/quote]

It's more like you are getting older and you have seen most of what is out there the gaming industry has to offer. There is nothing new under the sun, we just get rehashed things every other year and think it's new and original because we are ignorant of the past.

@ox0Shad0w0xo I've considered this and had her try many games I own. None of which have stuck but the ones listed.
@CaffeLatte Calm down. She doesn't have a steam account, she plays through mine for the games I listed. I intended to make her a steam account upon getting her some games.
@MomoSnipes I agree with you and have had her play on an emulator before Never had her try that game though, I shall consider it.

It's hard to say really. If she likes building things she [i]may[/i] like other simulation games, but there's no way to be sure. You could try the Sims (3 has lots to do if she wants to make her own houses, it gets pretty detailed), the tycoon type games (roller coaster tycoon, zoo tycoon, airport tycoon, mall tycoon, etc), Spore, and maybe Sim City.

Having said all of that though, you'd be surprised what your girlfriend might end up enjoying, so get her to try different games, test the water, and she may end up with some new favorites. Like, I didn't think my girlfriend would have the patience to sit through most rpg's (she quickly lost interest in a few I had her try), but she really got into FF13 and FF13-2. She also really ended up liking grand theft auto (although it's a bit boring to watch because she fails missions over and over lol). So just have your girlfriend try some games you think are really good and see how she feels about them.
