I just finished Control and it’s really good! Jesse is a strong female lead and there’s no male option like some games.

Seconding Control. One of my favorites.

I would third control. I picked it up from the Humble female protagonist bundle and it was fantastic, loved everything about it.
Once you unlock all the powers the combat and exploration really open up, and the game still has a significant bit of story left giving you time to have some fun with them.

Also loved the environmental lore, all the notes and the vids with Dr. Darling are great. Highly recommend the game.

Amazing game, definitely one of my all-time favorites and the most fun I’ve had with a combat system. The atmosphere of the game is fantastic as well, pulling so much tension out of every new supernatural office space you discover. I’m absolutely thrilled they confirmed a Control 2 recently, I can’t wait to get back into that world with all its lore to discover. I feel like I need to play Alan Wake now too since they’re connected.

Life is Strange games! More story then anything, and the dialog is a bit cringy these days but there’s really no other games like it and I highly recommend them.

Specifically the first game (unarguably the best one), its prequel, and True Colours. Life Is Strange 2 has two brothers, instead. They’re all very, very good games that all have made me cry (some multiple times).

They’re also pretty gay if that interests you.

Subnautica (obviously?) - Female protagonist trying to survive long enough to figure out what happened to her sister on a frozen planet.

Gris - A very lovely and emotional story about grief.

Just to be explicit, Subnautica: Below Zero is the entry featuring the female protagonist, Robin, not the first game.
