It's a beautifully crafted 2D / sprite based 16bit / SNES era inspired RPG with a fast paced action combat system and puzzle filled dungeons, as well as big boss fights. Although the trailers do not do it justice imo. It contains one of my favorite protagonists, which is sort of mute, which is also part of the story and cause of some hilarious but also sad moments. Pretty wholesome friendship based storytelling for the most part, although it does contain one suicide towards the end, which gets a little darker too. It's not graphic though and will topically probably fly over her head anyway. The spoiler free premise is that you play in sort of a MMORPG, which is located physically on another planet where they build something akin to a Westworld theme park out of something similar to nanobots, in which you control your avatar remotely made out of the same material. It has tons of accessibility options to adjust the difficulty too, in case something isn't quite your cup of tea.

Seconding this. It's a masterpiece. If she's 5, I don't think she'd really pay too much attention to the dialogue anyway.

Honestly, yes. This game is so good that it inspired my girlfriend to take up game development, which shes been doing for two years now

I never got to play the whole game but the HTML5 demo was outstanding!

Good point actually. I completely forgot that it had one, even though that's what made me buy the early access back then too. Makes it easy for OP to check the game out. At least in regards to some very basic gameplay.
