I am a complete necroposter here, i know. But i just HAD to post about my experience. It was the same issue, me and my girl wanted to play games together. I like adventures a LOT, also some shooting/fighting can tingle me behind the ears *wink*, but shes not too much into shooting. Shes more like the housekeeper and adventurer. 
So here's  what we have tried: 

Portal 2 Co-Op Campaign - We actually turned down a party, opened a vodka home and played this because we got SO into it at the first try. Theres no shooting, the single player story is just amazing (as Valve always has been in their games) and the Co-Op story is pretty good too. And not to mention the millions of levels designed by other players to conquer in co-op more...just amazing experience. 
Basically its the puzzle/arcade games brought up to a whole new, modern level. Just amazing. 

Then the unfortunate fortune happened to us - Minecraft! Avoid this one like the plague! Or not. Amazing WIDE world to experience, find stuff, build a home and craft items you need. She did all the farming and helped me with mining, i did the crafting and building. Together we explored the world. A TON of fun really, friendly game too. Not too many encounters, but youd still have to draw thy sword every now and then. 
So why did i say avoid Minecraft like the plague? Because it will not get you caught up for hours, not for days. We have played Minecraft for 8 months now :D It's a disease! 


We have tried some other games, which wasn't too much: 
Dead Island Co-Op - Cool game for a guy, single player can get real scary and jumpy for the zombie theme. Why we didnt like it was due to the repetitive quests, which pretty much each one (the main story and sidequests) was just fetch missions. Bring this from there, so you could take this here to a third place. Boring. 

Battlefield 3 - We joined a server, i thought she would be a good aim in my tank or my chopper and we would master the war grounds :D But it was too gory and bloody for her. Too much shooty-bangy-run'y ;D 


Now we are also looking for a good adventure game to take a pause from Minecraft. A good story to explore through together. They just dont make these and i dont understand why. What could be better then a co-op game? I mean EVERY sale is a double sale...think about it, oh mighty game developers. 


Sorry again to raise the post from the dead :D Hope it helps someone, whos
