Let’s say a middle-aged librarian/writer had never played a video game. This person loves stories, language, and history and is not comfortable with graphic depictions of violence. This person would like to be immersed in a story that is also a game, and would prefer not to buy a whole bunch of stuff or acquire an entirely new skillset.
What’s the one game you would recommend?
@Julie here modernized for current-gen graphics, but the original series from '93 is still playable and sold on steam.
I believe it's in the Top 5 most influential games of all time. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1255560/Myst/

多くの人に愛されてきた名作を生み出したインディースタジオ「Cyan」がMystを再創造しました。従来のフラットスクリーンディスプレイのみならず、VRでも楽しめるように全てが一から再構築されたMyst は新しいビジュアル、新しいサウンド、再構成されたアクションパート、そしてパズルのランダム要素（オプション）にあふれています。ついに…待ちに待ったMyst の2D/VR体験がこの世に現れたのです！
@ladyparabellum I think that may be the only game I ever played!
