Dad simulator games

I’m looking for games similar to The Last of Us or Pragmata. What I really enjoy is the emotional, story-driven experience and the relationship between the main character and their companion, especially the parent/guardian and child dynamic. It doesn’t have to be post-apocalyptic, but I’d love something with strong character development, a memorable journey, and a bond that feels central to the story.

I’ve already played The Last of Us 1+2 and am almost done with Pragmata, so I’m looking for other recommendations. What games would you suggest? Thanks :)

I’ve watched my gf play 9 and I didn’t really feel like it had “dad” vibes haha
