I’m a 30 year old woman who’s only really played card and puzzle games on my phone. Im considering new hobbies. Is it worth trying to get into video games for the first time. Where would I even start.

There are lots of different kinds of games out there. If you’re new to games and like puzzles, here are a few I can recommend.
Portal is humorous and has fun puzzles, pretty easy to get into. Viewfinder is another similar type of game, also The Stanley Parable
Baba Is You is a creative puzzle game.
Planet of Lana, and Limbo, and Somerville are neat puzzle/platformer games.
Torchlight us a good example of an action RPG genre, Children of Morta is another.
FTL is a neat roguelike game.
Faeria is a card deck building game.
Turn based tactics games can be pretty fun, and are easy to get into. [Triangle Strategy](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1850510/TRIANGLE_STRATEGY/ is a good one to try.
I also find narrative driven games really fun. For example, The Wolf Among Us is really excellent. Afterparty is pretty entertaining.
All of these should be fairly easy to get into if you’re just starting gaming.
