Okay so work with me a little here. You've just been tasked with recommending a game to someone who's got very little experience with gaming.

Maybe they're a kid who's just starting out, or maybe they've just never had much interest in videogames.

What one game are you giving to them to show what videogames can be

Pong, walk them through the generations.

IDK it kind of depends on what they might be into. Maybe something like Minecraft, Portal/Portal 2, or Skyrim where the mechanics aren't too complicated. I think multiplayer can be a big way to keep people interested too. I've gotten my parents who dislike video games to enjoy Golf with Friends and Jackbox games.

If they like puzzles that's also kinda easy there's tons of low barrier to entry stuff.
