So over the Christmas holiday I built a PC for my daughter (12) and my wife (35). I've been trying to find a game that we can all play and would enjoy together.

Some background:

Daughter likes Roblox and Minecraft. That's about it. She doesn't like survival mode in Minecraft, only creative. I don't mind Minecraft but not my go to.
Wife likes Stardew Valley and Animal Crossing. Doesn't care for Minecraft or Roblox
I'm a WoW veteran, enjoy RimWorld, and alot of Counter Strike 2 at the moment.

I'm trying to find something that might be able to meet all of our interests so we can do something together on a Friday/Saturday night. Would be nice to find a game that is somewhat of a dungeon crawl and has a story attached to it. BG3 might be too advanced for the 12 year old, as she probably won't hold the attention span to do it.

Not sure if there is an easier BG3 like game out there? Suggestions welcome!

I'm surprised no one has said Terraria yet. It's like a lil bit of everything on your list. You can go hardcore and try and beat all the bosses while powering up and mining, or you can take it easy and have fun with the building mechanics. There's an rpg aspect with it too by trying to find the NPCs. Great for lanning. I had many hours wasted with my roommates and my girlfriend/now wife back in the day. They've since added a lot more stuff so I might have to fire it up when my kids are old enough to play.
