RimWorld

Great game, instant key delivery.

this game gave me a crippling warcrimes, mechanoid, family building. every DLCs recommended for full experience sadly.

Overall Impression (tl;dr) - Rimworld is an excellently designed colony-building simulator with rich storytelling, advanced relations between pawns and high influence of the environment and various factions on gameplay. It offers a very moddable environment - including mods allowing for multiplayer gameplay - and is a haven for creativity! Your playstyle might differ every single session, with your colonists being either blood-hungry organ harvesters; or maybe nice peaceful neighbours offering free beds trying to recruit others into their fold. If you were looking for an exciting colony management game, search no more. With Ludeon Studios being a small self-published developer that’s even eager to lower the prices of their product for the sake of availability… you would certainly be supporting the right guys. Final rating - ★★★★★ Experience (gameplay/lore) - In Rimworld - your primary task is to keep your colonists from dying and fend off potential attackers that might want to steal some of that wealth of yours. You’ll do that by providing means of defense: barricades, weapons, armour. Naturally, your colonists cannot live off their military lifestyle only. You will have to provide them with sustenance, clothing, recreation. Each pawn has its individual happiness meter that is influenced by its traits, Ideoreligion (if you decide to get the DLC) and relations with others. The ultimate goal of your plays is to leave the planet by building a space ship and flying into the unknown - but most likely you’d rather dwell on the surface of your rim planet for a longer time. Gameplay is vastly diverse and allows you to make money in various ways - selling organs to traders, becoming a drug baron, being a legitimate art-creator and large rug baron or maybe simply raiding nearby sites belonging to other factions: tribes outlanders, even a certain fallen empire - it is all possible. Virtually everything is gatherable and changeable - the only limit is the sky and… well, that overhead mountain roof that will fall on your colonists if you won't take measures while digging your underground base! One thing that isn't mechanically possible however is creating multi-layered bases. There are no first floors or cellars in Rimworld, which would likely bring it somewhat closer to Dwarf Fortress in terms of gameplay - but I feel there’s enough surface to manage the colonists' needs. If there is not - you can have more than one colony at the same time. It's a game about...

best game ever made. endless replayability
