doom
Rollercoaster Tycoon / OpenRCT2
Transport Tycoon Deluxe / OpenTTD
While they do now have multiplayer modes thanks to their corresponding open source projects, I still think the spirit of these games is firmly in the single player pc game category. Best of all they’re both free and available on any OS!
FTL. Theme song triggers ptsd in my wife.
Skyrim is always up there.
Cyberpunk. They fixed most of the issues the game had at launch. There’s a dlc coming out soon too that will add a bunch of hours, and with it they are reworking loads of mechanics for free. Can’t recommend it enough.

I did much of the same thing
It turns out building a better pc and playing cyberpunk has the same effect as walking around a city on acid.
Who would’ve thought
There’s so much variation… I do the same, wandering around at night, just looking around.
One time I found myself in some dilapidated area with oil derrigs (the big pumps idk wht they’re called) and it was all foggy, almost monochrome. mud everywhere.
It was so beautiful.
Rimworld
RimWorld is a time machine. I start it up and then look at the clock and I’m 5 hours in the future.
I’ve once started a colony right before exams period. It was tough.
Binding of Isaac
+1. Just turned 300hours corner, and I’m not done at all.
Zombies vs Plants.
Vampire Survivors on the steam deck.
The Binding of Isaac. One of the GOATs for me.
Dwarf Fortress is beautiful.
This is my answer. Donated to Toady1 a couple times, then bought it on steam.
Same here, donated to Toady and played for years before moving to masterwork DF, and years there too. Once the keyboard only mode is added to the steam version I’m sure I’ll be playing for years there too!
Rogue Legacy 2
If you enjoy platformers and roguelikes, you’ll like this.
Ultima and Wing Commander, I know I’m showing my age but I guess it’s the nostalgia. I still go back and play through them.

Good ol’ Skyrim. The possibilities to break the game are nigh endless.
You know there is a skyrim mods community here on lemmy? Come break the game with us!
The Binding of Isaac. It is too addictive
I understand that this game is popular and has a significant fanbase. However, I’ve never played it. Could you share the features that drew you into playing this game? I’d like to enjoy it, but simply watching the gameplay didn’t suffice to persuade me.
The random generated dungeons and amount of different items do it for me. The game might have a steep learning curve initially though until you figure out the core mechanics
