+1 for the LEGO games. Sort of my go to sleeper pick for surprisingly good games. The humor is good, gameplay is decent though I have to go on big breaks between playing through one because gameplay game to game can be a bit samey.

A Hat in Time Trine Spiritfarer The lego games Knights and bikes Human fall flat Cassette beasts Chariot Octodad Monaco
I don’t remember these being particularly violent but maybe are worth a look: Pit people BattleBlock Theater
I also liked Moon Hunters and Children of Morta but those are harder.
Divinity Original Sin 1 is also good but definitely falls into the violent category. Its kind of goofy too so it could be worth considering. The second game + BG3 are significantly more violent and serious so are harder to recommend with that criteria.

Trine
I do own the first 2, I totally forget about this game. Definitely gonna give it a try.
Spiritfarer
I already played and loved SpiritFarer, it was an amazing journey. I don’t want to say too much but I just can’t repeat it any time soon.
The lego games
I forgot to mention in the original post that we did play the lord of the rings lego game and I really hated it. I found the gameplay so boring…
Knights And Bikes
This one looks intriguing, I’ll check it out!
Monaco
I do own Monaco, maybe i’ll give it a try!
Thanks!

I’ll add a +1 to Battleblock Theater! Such a well done game that can be true co-op or “co-op with shenanigans” if that’s more your vibe. The story is entertaining and lighthearted and the levels introduce new mechanics throughout.

Dude, Octodad in the random arm-leg mode is so fucking funny. My wife and I had so much fun with that too back the game is so short!
