syltefar.com: Female Protagonist

Female Protagonist

A game where you can play through most of the game with a female protagonist. In many of these games, you can choose a male protagonist as well. This category exists because even having the option to choose a female lead in a video game was very rare before the 2010s.
Games where the player can create their own female character are not included.
