M2 Air for casual gaming? (alien.top)

Looking to get my fiancée either a 15” Air or a 14” Pro for Christmas, and can’t decide. I’ve never owned a Mac myself, so I don’t have a lot of experience to draw from. She’ll be doing a lot of typing for work, and she wants to be able to play a couple of games like the Sims and Stardew Valley. My main question is, how is the keyboard on the Air vs the Pro, and can it handle the graphics of the Sims? Thanks in advance everyone

Played Stardew on M2 with ps5 controller and it was great , from GOG application. Also tried NMS which was surprisingly nice but did get hot since there are no fans. So gaming is pretty light weight. I have the pro model now and the keyboard feels like the m2 which are both amazing keyboards battery life for air was 10hour ish , pro is more like 5hr since i keep the brightness so high . I felt some lag sometimes running multiple applications on the air , none with the pro and have yet to hear the fans kick in
