Games Directed by Women
Very obviously inspired by this list on Letterboxd.
This list was also a big help
Game directors aren't nearly as notable as film directors so I will be taking some liberties in what directing a game actually is, since a lot of the time, the actual director is just unknown e.g. Centipede (1981). So lead designers will probably be popping up a lot.

Add the Freedom Planets too, trans woman. She may have directed Grapple Force Rena too.
@Lehuan thanks I'll add those. I'll need to double check the king's quest games.
