      +1 for Timberborn. My only add is that if you want relaxed play there are fully custom options to make the game laid back if you want to just build settlements and not worry about droughts / floods. Also make sure to save often when unlocking science because you can unlock tech and find out after that you need other things unlocked / done first. Example would be unlocking something that requires gears to build but you aren’t making gears yet.

    I started a new Timberborn save last weekend now that the 3D terrain update has an experimental release. It needs some optimization but it’s quite fun

    After the 1.0 update I picked up “Foundation” again. Unfortunately the game is still haunted by quite a number of bugs. I am sure those will be fixed, but for the moment it requires a certain tolerance to enjoy the game.

    my last dip into the genre was with urbek. it’s very explicitly about balancing so i didn’t get very far but I find it very interesting.

    One that I’m hoping to start soon is Songs of Syx. It has city biker elements kind of the realm of Dwarf Fortress or Rimworld, but with a greater focus on economy. And, it zooms it to a much better-defined world map game than either of those two offer.

    I’ve had Anno 1800 for years, never played it till about two weeks ago. So it’s between that and Timberborn currently.
