Crusader Kings 2

Mount & Blade

Stoneheart

The Forest

The Long Dark

Rimworld
I have Mount & Blade, rimworld, and long dark. All 3 of them are absolutely fantastic. If you go with M&B, though, make sure you get the Warband version - it's the best of the bunch.
I also own CK2, but hardly ever play it. I vastly prefer EU4 (paradox's other big seller), but your taste may vary.

CK is about managing intricate politics and intrigue, while running a medieval kingdom. EU is about managing intricate economic and influences while running a renaissance nation.

She'd prefer CKII. The character plots and such would be more interesting to her.

It's just difficult at first because of how complex it all seems at first. Maybe watch a gameplay video on youtube. Start with a kingdom in early Spain (before Reconquista) or maybe Ireland.

Rimworld. Its the best game ive ever played. Most games bore me after a couple weeks, but rimworld keeps dragging me back in.

I'm playing men of war 2 lately. More tactical than any RTS I ever played. Vehicles get penetrated and they die instead of some health bar.

Don't like EU4 compared to 3 or hoi4 compared to 3 either lol.

CK2 is fun, just bored of it lately.

Rimworld is amazing.

Kinda disappointed with this Steam Summer Sale.
I'd say it largely sucks.

To those who disagree, I'd point out that all week their #1 seller has been PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds - a game that isn't even on sale.

It's only a month or two old. Fall sale will have a discount, if you wait.

Let me know if you want to do co-op. It looks like a blast playing with a team.
