I’m looking for a new colony sim on PC. What I’ve played so far are:

  • Rimworld
  • Oxygen Not Included
  • Banished
  • Timberworld
  • Frostpunk
  • Anno 1800

I know some of these might not be strictly colony sims. What I’m really looking forward to is Manor Lords, but we don’t have a definite release date on that.

What are your recommendations?

    Also want to second Against the Storm, with the caveat that if you enjoy seeing your colony go self-sufficient, this isn’t really the game. The instant your colony goes self-sufficient here, the game is basically over, and the gameplay loop consists entirely of the struggle in getting there based on a randomised set of variables.

    … which makes it my favourite colony sim by a mile. I think I have over two hundred hours in it, and it’s still getting improved by the active devs.
