* This war of mine.
While it does take place in a war zone, you play from the perspective of the civilians that are trapped within a besieged city and struggle to survive. Violence here is incredibly dangerous for survival, and should be avoided at all costs.
* Papers please
You play as a border control employee that must validate that all people crossing the border have the correct documentation. Due to the nature of the environment there will be some guns/violence involved, but it is by far not the main focus of the game. Glory to Arstotzka.
These games may not be to your liking, depending on how hard you are on the "NO gun/violence" requirement. These approach the topics from a more civilian view than other games.
