          It’s automation focused. There is survival, but in the sense of like repelling a wave of aliens coming to attack you, usually via automation.

          It’s still a pretty addicting game as you work out how to do things and laying out plans for how certain processes will look. I’d still recommend checking it out regardless.

          It is different as other poster mentioned. But it hits the same spot in the brain for me. It’s worth at least checking out

      RimWorld is al all time classic for me. When I boot it up nowadays it’s with a gargantuan modlist, over 500+ by now, and I love that the game’s core systems are good enough to support all these mods.

      The other recommendations you got are good, but add a slightly different style check out This War Of Mine. Disclaimer : it’s. Heavy topic game. You survive as a civilian in an ongoing warzone (in short). You craft you home base during the day, and either scavenge for meager supplies at night (suffering exhaustion) or sleep at night. It’s a fairly brutal game, emotional, but some people are into that stuff… A friend, yeah! Not me.
