** All three girls in both the original ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII'' and the ''[[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIIRemake Remake]]'', four girls if you count Jessie, in different ways. Aeris (Aerith), the most feminine in terms of physical appearance, has a girly outfit, loves flowers and fights using the conventionally feminine setup (in ''Final Fantasy'' [[MythologyGag mythology]]) of a staff and White Magic, but she wears big boots, has a pushy and fearless personality, takes the lead when flirting and talks in tough-girl, tomboyish slang in the Japanese version; however, she also has a terrifying fear of being abandoned and left alone. Tifa, who is relatively centrist on the {{Tomboy}} - GirlyGirl spectrum in comparison to the other two girls in terms of both appearance and personality, is an ass-kicking martial artist in minimalist clothing, but her personality is defined by her loyalty, supportiveness, [[ShrinkingViolet shyness]], empathy, and general 'quiet inner strength', as well as her desire for Cloud to rescue her someday. Yuffie, the most tomboyish, is a loudmouthed, fast-talking thief with a hugely inflated opinion of herself, but she talks in girly-girl-style ValleyGirl slang and is less brave than the other girls, often looking to Cloud to comfort her when she gets panicked or upset. And in the ''Remake'', Jessie tends to be somewhat aggressively flirtatious with Cloud, but she's also very bubbly, sweet, and kind, and although she is an ActionGirl, she sometimes still needs Cloud to rescue her every now and then.

* Most tomboys in ''Franchise/StreetFighter'' fall under this rule. Characters who are supposed to be the tomboy half to girly girls such as Cammy and Sakura wear dresses or skirts in at least a willing capacity. The only pure "Tomboy" character is probably Makoto, who is the Tomboy to probably the second most Girly character in the series Ibuki. Makoto only wears one feminine outfit which is her schoolgirl outfit but it has some battle damage and her legs have some wraps and her face has a bandaid making it arguably less feminine than Ibuki and Sakura's.

* Most tomboys in ''Franchise/StreetFighter'' fall under this rule. Characters who are supposed to be the tomboy half to girly girls such as Cammy and Sakura wear dresses or skirts in at least a willing capacity. The new-comer, Marisa, is primarily interested in fighting, sees herself as a descendant of ancient Greek warriors and is very muscular to boot and towers above even most male characters. But outside of fighting, she is also highly interested in fine arts, works as a jewelry designer and wears makeup and nail polish.

** Sisterly villagers who appear in New Leaf onward are very tomboyish; they love sports and are very rough-and-tumble but some of them have girly designs. Also, getting to know them more in New Horizons will reveal that they love gardening and flowers.
** Mabel of the Able Sisters is a very perky hedgehog who loves footballs but also dolls.
* Ami from ''VideoGame/CrashTeamRacingNitroFueled'' is a very athletic and competitive racer, with high-speed stats, who likes to flex her muscles whenever she wins, but also wears a dress and makeup.

* ''{{VideoGame/Cyberpunk 2077}}'': Panam Palmer is a nomad and badass smuggler who drives and fixes cars, dodges corpsec drones, shoots bandits, and knocks back Broseph beers with the best of them, but also wears very high-maintenance make-up and long, immaculate nails, and styles her hair in an elaborate bun.
* Cassandra from ''VideoGame/DragonAgeInquisition''. Blunt, uncompromising, uptight, ChurchMilitant MagicKnight...who secretly loves romance novels, [[GuiltyPleasures especially the ones written by party member and part-time author Varric]] (whom she [[VitriolicBestBuds openly loathes]]). If you pursue her as a love interest, it turns out she's a romantic at heart and requires proper courtship, and she'll let her [[DefrostingIceQueen softer side show once she warms up to you]].
* The Drauk in ''VideoGame/EverOasis'' are an [[OneGenderRace all-female]] ProudWarriorRace who collectively have a girly streak. Their culture puts emphasis both on personal strength and personal appearance, meaning that in between training and battle they enjoy wearing fancy fashions and jewelry. [[spoiler: In the ending credits, you even get to see Miura, your prominent Drauk friend, twirling around in a pretty new dress.]]
* Veronica from ''VideoGame/FalloutNewVegas''. She's a GadgeteerGenius whose follower perk lets you make certain things without the assistance of a workbench, as well as a proficient martial artist who favors a PowerFist as her weapon of choice. She also really wants to own a formal dress. If you give her one of the fanciest ones in the game, she'll teach you a secret martial arts technique to show her gratitude.
* ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'':
** Understated with ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyIII'''s Refia. She's the adoptive daughter of a blacksmith and has no problem with fighting, traveling, etc. But there is a bit of frill in her outfit and she sports a pair of earrings, plus she readily befriends girly-girl Salina and sympathizes with her boyfriend trouble.

** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyX2'' Paine is the most tomboyish of the three girls - with BoyishShortHair and an aggressive personality. However, a few of her Dressphere outfits are quite feminine (Songstress, Black Mage, Lady Luck, White Mage) and she enjoys giggling about boys with Rikku once or twice. Also, when the party is wondering whether it's really right for them to take a relaxing dip in a hot spring on sacred Mt. Gagazet grounds, she's the one who comments "No one's looking."
* ''Franchise/FireEmblem'' has many female characters of all kinds, so more than one of these girly tomboys show up:
** In the remake of ''VideoGame/FireEmblemMysteryOfTheEmblem'', Princess Sheena is a badass General... and has a doll collection.
** In ''VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening'', the {{tsundere}} mercenary girl Severa has a weakness for make-up and jewelry and wears her incredibly long hair in GirlishPigtails. Similarly, Cynthia also has GirlishPigtails and makes [[InnocentFlowerGirl flower fortunes]].
** In ''VideoGame/FireEmblemFates'', Hana is a tomboyish ActionGirl with a straightforward attitude... and a [[LongHairIsFeminine longhaired]] ProudBeauty who takes care of her looks quite a bit and loves cute things to death. Also, Charlotte loves fist-fighting, but that doesn't stop her from enjoying feminine activities such as shopping, primping, or cooking.
** Like Hana above, Hinoka is a tomboyish ActionGirl, instead with shorter red hair, but she has her own pegasus, is very much a PrincessClassic, and not afraid to cry every now and then. And surprisingly, according to her siblings and retainers, she is a SupremeChef.
** In ''VideoGame/FireEmblemEchoesShadowsOfValentia'', the mage Mae has pink hair and wears a predominantly pink and red dress, but is also very boisterous and likes to brag about her abilities on the battlefield. She discusses this with Celica, wondering if [[NoGuyWantsAnAmazon guys won't see her as a prospect girlfriend]].
* Kira Woodville from ''VideoGame/HiddenCity'' is a HotBlooded ActionGirl who serves as the primary fighter among the Security Service members. Despite being a tough law enforcement officer, she is still very much concerned about beauty and fashion.
* Kyu Sugardust from ''VideoGame/HuniePop'' is a rather hilarious example as she looks like the classic fairy down pat... right up until [[HardDrinkingPartyGirl she drinks]] or [[SirSwearsALot she opens her mouth]].
-->'''Kyu''': ''[just eaten a slice of pizza]'' Mmmmmm, ''fuck'', that's good! Yo, I'm about to bust a '''nut''' over here!
-->'''Kyu''': ''[asking her favourite colour]'' Seriously? You're ''seriously'' going to ask me that? It's fuckin' pink, bitch!
-->'''Kyu''': ''[reacts to [[SpicyLatina Kyanna]]]'' Man! Will you get a load of these two? I'd KILL to have tits like that!
* Kairi from ''Franchise/KingdomHearts'' is described as a tomboy by WordOfGod, particularly in the original game, but is also [[GenkiGirl very giggly]], [[PinkMeansFeminine wears pink]], and has a penchant for making jewelry out of seashells.
* Aleksandra "Zarya" Zaryanova from ''VideoGame/{{Overwatch}}'' is a GentleGiant bodybuilder war hero Tank who proudly rocks pink hair and fingernails.
* The ''Franchise/MassEffect'' trilogy gives us Ashley Williams. She wears heavy PoweredArmor, is a SpaceMarine Gunnery Chief who can fire pretty much anything that shoots. She is also a huge fan of sensitive poetry and indicates a desire to go dancing at a local nightclub. And her favorite armor is pink! Between games she gets a GirlinessUpgrade growing her hair out and wearing more [[SpyCatsuit catsuit-y battle outfits]]. In the Citadel DLC, she shows up to the casino infiltration mission in a cocktail dress and sandals.
-->'''Ashley''': ”Just because I can drill you between the eyes at two hundred meters, doesn’t mean I can’t like sensitive stuff!”
* ''Franchise/{{Persona}}'':
** ''VideoGame/Persona3'' has the female PlayerCharacter. Her willingness to fight with the rest of SEES, combined with her being chosen as the field leader, gets her pegged as a tomboy by both Junpei and Shinjiro in passing, while the "girly" part comes from her more feminine style of casual clothes and the fact that [[SupremeChef she's a great cook, particularly of sweets]].
** ''VideoGame/Persona4'':
*** Chie Satonaka is a straightforward {{Tomboy}} who's also a Creator/BruceLee loving KickChick with BoyishShortHair. Though in spite of her boyish ways Chie also is scared of bugs, is attracted to cute boys, [[SheCleansUpNicely looks beautiful when she dolls up]] and if the protagonist boosts her social link Chie will cook food for him... unfortunately she's a LethalChef. But it's the thought that counts.
*** Naoto Shirogane (a {{bifauxnen}} has a hidden ShrinkingViolet side (and [[spoiler: occasionally drops her bifauxnen look in favor of a girlish school uniform, but only if the protagonist romances her ''and'' directly asks her to]]).
* Alys Brangwin from ''VideoGame/PhantasyStarIV'', although you have to talk to a few {{NPC}}s to find the girly streak. She's one of the most feared bounty hunters on Motavia, but an elderly neighbor mentions that Alys likes poetry and regularly cooks for her.
* ''Franchise/ResidentEvil'':
** Claire Redfield. On one hand, she is a motorcycle enthusiast, a skilled fighter and markswoman, and fond of denim. On the other, she is scared of bugs (particularly giant mutated ones) and Hunters, [[MamaBear great with kids]] and fond of pink. Claire seems even more tomboyish in ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil2Remake'' since she not only dresses [[AdaptationalModesty practically]] in this version but she also swears like a sailor, rages out at those who cross her, and is generally sarcastic to most people she meets. On the flip-side, remake Claire always wears a necklace, dotes on Sherry, does a GirlyRun towards [[ChickMagnet Leon]], and then proceeds to playfully flirt with him through a fence. Claire also is more audibly grossed out than Leon at discovering the cockroaches in the morgue.
** Jill Valentine is mostly a practical ActionGirl, but ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil3Nemesis'' shows in her off-time she happily ditches the pouched combat gear for a tube top and short skirt.
* ''VideoGame/ShiningResonance'': The people of Astoria think Sonia is masculine because she's a knight and because of her strength. However, Sonia explains that she's only carrying out her duties as Astoria's princess, and attributes her strength to Captain Burrough's regimen. Otherwise, she's actually quite feminine; including owning lavish ballroom gowns, she's had dancing lessons for formal occasions, and also enjoys reading romance novels in her spare time. The reason most don't get to see that side of her is that she's almost always on active duty.
* ''[[VideoGame/SkiesOfArcadia Skies of Arcadia: Legends]]'': Aika was an orphan, who grew up to become an [[SkyPirate Air Pirate]], along with [[ChildhoodFriends her best friend]], Vyse, who regards her as [[OneOfTheBoys one of the guys]].[[note]]Though he still respects her privacy as a girl.[[/note]] But she's not entirely devoid of femininity. She wears jeweled earrings and blue hair ribbons at the ends of her pigtails, for one thing. And while she'll readily face the Valuan Armada, the ''mere thought'' of ghosts [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments can paralyze her with fear.]]
* In ''VideoGame/SoulcaliburVI'', Seong Mi-na wears a bright pink outfit with flowers and also has a complex and feminine braid. She also preferred playing with a weapon over dolls when she was younger.
* Most tomboys in ''Franchise/StreetFighter'' fall under this rule. Characters who are supposed to be the tomboy half to girly girls such as Cammy and Sakura wear dresses or skirts in at least a willing capacity. The only pure "Tomboy" character is probably Makoto, who is the Tomboy to probably the second most Girly character in the series Ibuki. Makoto only wears one feminine outfit which is her schoolgirl outfit but it has some battle damage and her legs have some wraps and her face has a bandaid making it arguably less feminine than Ibuki and Sakura's. Makoto's other outfits can make her gender ambiguous.
* Princess Daisy from ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'' While she's described as a TomboyPrincess in the series, she wears a dress that's nearly as [[PimpedOutDress pimped-out]] and girly as [[PrincessesPreferPink Princess Peach]], she has a FlowerMotif in all of her outfits, and she prides herself as being the "fairest of them all".
* Nanaly from ''VideoGame/TalesOfDestiny2'' initially strikes everyone as a {{Tomboy}}, but she, much like Rutee in the first game, runs an orphanage and is very good at both sewing and [[SupremeChef cooking]]. She actually ''dislikes'' being called a tomboy and will get anyone calling her one (mostly [[ButtMonkey Loni]]) in a bone-crushing hold.
* ''VideoGame/TalesOfSymphonia'':
** While Sheena's very tomboyish, she actually likes cooking and wears pink accessories in her outfit, plus she's seen sniffing a vase of flowers when the party stays in Zelos' mansion.
** Presea has elements of this too, being a young-looking girl who worked as a lumberjack, wielding a huge ax in battle and is [[PintSizedPowerhouse the strongest member of the party]], but also fights in a purple dress, has pink GirlishPigtails and in one skit is seen playing with [[NonHumanSidekick Corrine]] by [[CutenessProximity poking his paw pads.]]
* The ''VideoGame/{{Tekken}}'' tomboys are in a similar boat to the SF girls. Tomboys such as Nina Williams and Asuka Kazama have some very girly-looking dresses or 1 piece suits that rival the outfits of their girly-girl counterparts Anna Williams and Lili respectively. Leo is the only "true" tomboy, that is if you want to consider Leo female since according to the developers, Leo's gender is up to the player to decide, since their default outfit makes them gender-ambiguous (even more than SF's Makoto) while ''Tekken Tag Tournament 2'' gives them both male and female customization options.
* ''VideoGame/ScarletNexus'': One of the two protagonists Kasane is cold and aloof with BrutalHonesty, with this contrasting to her sister Naomi in a TomboyAndGirlyGirl dynamic… But the gifts Kasane loves in the Yuito route are flowers and love poetry. Ostensibly because those are things her sister likes.
* Marina Wulfstan from ''VideoGame/ValkyriaChronicles'' is a cold, aloof hunter with short hair and an athletic build who considers her most important interpersonal relationship to be with her rifle. She actually performs better when alone and worse when with the company - and she has such a soft spot for cuddly animals that in one of the DLC's ''she gets her entire squad into serious trouble chasing one.'' She ends up being the primary caretaker of Squad 7's mascot, a little piglet... but otherwise, remains completely the exact same person.
* ''VideoGame/TheWalkingDead'': [[PlayerCharacter Clementine]] is described as [[OutdoorsyGal "preferring to play in her treehouse rather than with dolls"]] in season one. She wears a dress and a baseball cap as her outfit. She spends most of her time drawing, but will also happily lick a salt lick for cows she and her friend Duck found in a barn. In [[VideoGame/TheWalkingDeadSeasonFour season four]] she can reminisce about how she used to imagine she's a warrior princess before the ZombieApocalypse broke out, noting that she was a "cool" princess, who got to wear a fancy dress and fight bad guys with a sword. Future seasons force her to lean slightly more into her tomboyishness (mostly due to logistics of the setting), keeping her hair short, wearing practical clothes, and fighting zombies, but her favorite color is still [[PurpleIsPowerful purple]], she immediately bonds with baby [=AJ=] and acts adorably awkward around people she has a crush on.
* ''VideoGame/{{WET}}'' features a whiskey-drinking, sword-wielding, tattooed DarkActionGirl who also has a [[GirlyRun dainty run]].
* Katie from ''VideoGame/YokaiWatch'' as the protagonist (and to a lesser degree, as Nate's classmate). She is an adventurous girl with a TomboyishPonytail who likes BugCatching, but she also has a GirlyRun and most of her stuff is in pink.
** Sisterly villagers who appear in New Leaf onward are very tomboyish; they love sports and are very rough-and-tumble but some of them have girly designs. Also, getting to know them more in New Horizons will reveal that they love gardening and flowers.

She's the adoptive daughter of a blacksmith and has no problem with fighting, traveling, etc. But there is a bit of frill in her outfit and she sports a pair of earrings, plus she readily befriends girly-girl Salina and sympathizes with her boyfriend trouble.
** All three girls in both the original ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII'' and the ''[[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIIRemake Remake]]'', four girls if you count Jessie, in different ways. Aeris (Aerith), the most feminine in terms of physical appearance, has a girly outfit, loves flowers and fights using the conventionally feminine setup (in ''Final Fantasy'' [[MythologyGag mythology]]) of a staff and White Magic, but she wears big boots, has a pushy and fearless personality, takes the lead when flirting and talks in tough-girl, tomboyish slang in the Japanese version; however, she also has a terrifying fear of being abandoned and left alone. Tifa, who is relatively centrist on the {{Tomboy}} - GirlyGirl spectrum in comparison to the other two girls in terms of both appearance and personality, is an ass-kicking martial artist in minimalist clothing, but her personality is defined by her loyalty, supportiveness, [[ShrinkingViolet shyness]], empathy, and general 'quiet inner strength', as well as her desire for Cloud to rescue her someday. Yuffie, the most tomboyish, is a loudmouthed, fast-talking thief with a hugely inflated opinion of herself, but she talks in girly-girl-style ValleyGirl slang and is less brave than the other girls, often looking to Cloud to comfort her when she gets panicked or upset. And in the ''Remake'', Jessie tends to be somewhat aggressively flirtatious with Cloud, but she's also very bubbly, sweet, and kind, and although she is an ActionGirl, she sometimes still needs Cloud to rescue her every now and then.

She is also a huge fan of sensitive poetry and indicates a desire to go dancing at a local nightclub. And her favorite armor is pink! Between games she gets a GirlinessUpgrade growing her hair out and wearing more [[SpyCatsuit catsuit-y battle outfits]]. In the Citadel DLC, she shows up to the casino infiltration mission in a cocktail dress and sandals.
-->'''Ashley''': ”Just because I can drill you between the eyes at two hundred meters, doesn’t mean I can’t like sensitive stuff!”
* ''Franchise/{{Persona}}'':
** ''VideoGame/Persona3'' has the female PlayerCharacter. Her willingness to fight with the rest of SEES, combined with her being chosen as the field leader, gets her pegged as a tomboy by both Junpei and Shinjiro in passing, while the "girly" part comes from her more feminine style of casual clothes and the fact that [[SupremeChef she's a great cook, particularly of sweets]].
** ''VideoGame/Persona4'':
*** Chie Satonaka is a straightforward {{Tomboy}} who's also a Creator/BruceLee loving KickChick with BoyishShortHair. Though in spite of her boyish ways Chie also is scared of bugs, is attracted to cute boys, [[SheCleansUpNicely looks beautiful when she dolls up]] and if the protagonist boosts her social link Chie will cook food for him... unfortunately she's a LethalChef. But it's the thought that counts.
*** Naoto Shirogane (a {{bifauxnen}} has a hidden ShrinkingViolet side (and [[spoiler: occasionally drops her bifauxnen look in favor of a girlish school uniform, but only if the protagonist romances her ''and'' directly asks her to]]).
* Alys Brangwin from ''VideoGame/PhantasyStarIV'', although you have to talk to a few {{NPC}}s to find the girly streak. She's one of the most feared bounty hunters on Motavia, but an elderly neighbor mentions that Alys likes poetry and regularly cooks for her.
* ''Franchise/ResidentEvil'':
** Claire Redfield. On one hand, she is a motorcycle enthusiast, a skilled fighter and markswoman, and fond of denim. On the other, she is scared of bugs (particularly giant mutated ones) and Hunters, [[MamaBear great with kids]] and fond of pink. Claire seems even more tomboyish in ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil2Remake'' since she not only dresses [[AdaptationalModesty practically]] in this version but she also swears like a sailor, rages out at those who cross her, and is generally sarcastic to most people she meets. On the flip-side, remake Claire always wears a necklace, dotes on Sherry, does a GirlyRun towards [[ChickMagnet Leon]], and then proceeds to playfully flirt with him through a fence. Claire also is more audibly grossed out than Leon at discovering the cockroaches in the morgue.
** Jill Valentine is mostly a practical ActionGirl, but ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil3Nemesis'' shows in her off-time she happily ditches the pouched combat gear for a tube top and short skirt.
* ''VideoGame/ShiningResonance'': The people of Astoria think Sonia is masculine because she's a knight and because of her strength. However, Sonia explains that she's only carrying out her duties as Astoria's princess, and attributes her strength to Captain Burrough's regimen. Otherwise, she's actually quite feminine; including owning lavish ballroom gowns, she's had dancing lessons for formal occasions, and also enjoys reading romance novels in her spare time. The reason most don't get to see that side of her is that she's almost always on active duty.
* ''[[VideoGame/SkiesOfArcadia Skies of Arcadia: Legends]]'': Aika was an orphan, who grew up to become an [[SkyPirate Air Pirate]], along with [[ChildhoodFriends her best friend]], Vyse, who regards her as [[OneOfTheBoys one of the guys]].[[note]]Though he still respects her privacy as a girl.[[/note]] But she's not entirely devoid of femininity. She wears jeweled earrings and blue hair ribbons at the ends of her pigtails, for one thing. And while she'll readily face the Valuan Armada, the ''mere thought'' of ghosts [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments can paralyze her with fear.]]
* In ''VideoGame/SoulcaliburVI'', Seong Mi-na wears a bright pink outfit with flowers and also has a complex and feminine braid. She also preferred playing with a weapon over dolls when she was younger.
* Most tomboys in ''Franchise/StreetFighter'' fall under this rule. Characters who are supposed to be the tomboy half to girly girls such as Cammy and Sakura wear dresses or skirts in at least a willing capacity. The only pure "Tomboy" character is probably Makoto, who is the Tomboy to probably the second most Girly character in the series Ibuki. Makoto only wears one feminine outfit which is her schoolgirl outfit but it has some battle damage and her legs have some wraps and her face has a bandaid making it arguably less feminine than Ibuki and Sakura's. Makoto's other outfits can make her gender ambiguous.
* Princess Daisy from ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'' While she's described as a TomboyPrincess in the series, she wears a dress that's nearly as [[PimpedOutDress pimped-out]] and girly as [[PrincessesPreferPink Princess Peach]], she has a FlowerMotif in all of her outfits, and she prides herself as being the "fairest of them all".
* Nanaly from ''VideoGame/TalesOfDestiny2'' initially strikes everyone as a {{Tomboy}}, but she, much like Rutee in the first game, runs an orphanage and is very good at both sewing and [[SupremeChef cooking]]. She actually ''dislikes'' being called a tomboy and will get anyone calling her one (mostly [[ButtMonkey Loni]]) in a bone-crushing hold.
* ''VideoGame/TalesOfSymphonia'':
** While Sheena's very tomboyish, she actually likes cooking and wears pink accessories in her outfit, plus she's seen sniffing a vase of flowers when the party stays in Zelos' mansion.
** Presea has elements of this too, being a young-looking girl who worked as a lumberjack, wielding a huge ax in battle and is [[PintSizedPowerhouse the strongest member of the party]], but also fights in a purple dress, has pink GirlishPigtails and in one skit is seen playing with [[NonHumanSidekick Corrine]] by [[CutenessProximity poking his paw pads.]]
* The ''VideoGame/{{Tekken}}'' tomboys are in a similar boat to the SF girls. Tomboys such as Nina Williams and Asuka Kazama have some very girly-looking dresses or 1 piece suits that rival the outfits of their girly-girl counterparts Anna Williams and Lili respectively. Leo is the only "true" tomboy, that is if you want to consider Leo female since according to the developers, Leo's gender is up to the player to decide, since their default outfit makes them gender-ambiguous (even more than SF's Makoto) while ''Tekken Tag Tournament 2'' gives them both male and female customization options.
* ''VideoGame/ScarletNexus'': One of the two protagonists Kasane is cold and aloof with BrutalHonesty, with this contrasting to her sister Naomi in a TomboyAndGirlyGirl dynamic… But the gifts Kasane loves in the Yuito route are flowers and love poetry. Ostensibly because those are things her sister likes.
* Marina Wulfstan from ''VideoGame/ValkyriaChronicles'' is a cold, aloof hunter with short hair and an athletic build who considers her most important interpersonal relationship to be with her rifle. She actually performs better when alone and worse when with the company - and she has such a soft spot for cuddly animals that in one of the DLC's ''she gets her entire squad into serious trouble chasing one.'' She ends up being the primary caretaker of Squad 7's mascot, a little piglet... but otherwise, remains completely the exact same person.
* ''VideoGame/TheWalkingDead'': [[PlayerCharacter Clementine]] is described as [[OutdoorsyGal "preferring to play in her treehouse rather than with dolls"]] in season one. She wears a dress and a baseball cap as her outfit. She spends most of her time drawing, but will also happily lick a salt lick for cows she and her friend Duck found in a barn. In [[VideoGame/TheWalkingDeadSeasonFour season four]] she can reminisce about how she used to imagine she's a warrior princess before the ZombieApocalypse broke out, noting that she was a "cool" princess, who got to wear a fancy dress and fight bad guys with a sword. Future seasons force her to lean slightly more into her tomboyishness (mostly due to logistics of the setting), keeping her hair short, wearing practical clothes, and fighting zombies, but her favorite color is still [[PurpleIsPowerful purple]], she immediately bonds with baby [=AJ=] and acts adorably awkward around people she has a crush on.
* ''VideoGame/{{WET}}'' features a whiskey-drinking, sword-wielding, tattooed DarkActionGirl who also has a [[GirlyRun dainty run]].
* Katie from ''VideoGame/YokaiWatch'' as the protagonist (and to a lesser degree, as Nate's classmate). She is an adventurous girl with a TomboyishPonytail who likes BugCatching, but she also has a GirlyRun and most of her stuff is in pink.
