For uplifting, I like chill games where people are nice to each other.
Hades has you piece back together your family and has a lot of great dialog.
Carto is a cute puzzle game involving rearranging maps where you help people on your way back home.
Haven is a young couple trying to make it on an alien planet.
Children of Morta is a family fighting together against an apocalypse.
Dreamscaper is a rogue lite where you get mechanically stronger through self care as you work your way through trauma by hitting it in your dreams.
Ni no Kuni 1 and 2 are longer jrpgs in a Studio Ghibli style world.
Grandia is another jrpg that does a good job at capturing an adventurous spirit.
JNCOs are back in!
