Good advice. Solo player games where you actually buy them is usually a safe bet. If it's free, they'll want your money later or make it an impossible grind. It's a bit of the same on the mobile side so OP is probably aware.
You can make some searches about good games for new comers because of all the games I'm currently playing, none would be a good start.
Done recently that could work :
Baldur's Gate 3. It's turn by turn so not reliant on mechanical skills. Can be played on concoles or pc with keyboard or controller. The story is so amazing. The acting, the branching, the choices... Loved it.
Frostpunk. Game where you try to save people gathered around a generator cause the earth is now ice cold. You manage ressources and tech to meet people expectations. They'll have demands but you can't say yes to everything. Hard choice. Can be kinda hard but you just start over the scenario with the knowledge you just got. It's mostly just figuring things out...
Skyrim? I liked the story / setting. I don't know if that aged alright or if there's something better in the same genre that could be welcoming. I remember that it wasn't particularly hard. On easy it should be more focused on the story / immersion.
