Mods - I am not sure how to read the rule against game suggestions. If it means no asking for suggestions please just wipe the post. No harm, no foul.

Fall is usually my busiest time of year preparing for winter in our little forest home. But I have been given orders from the doctors to basically take bedrest for up to 3 months, but I’m allowed to be sitting up… So books and games are basically all that is on the menu.

I enjoy automation games, tower defense, survival/building games, and exploration games.

I dislike ‘souls-like’ experiences where combat is tight and requires perfect timing. In fact in most games where combat can be disabled I usually do that.

My top games of all time would be factorio, minecraft, WoW/FFXIV (yeah… i know. But they count as one), Dyson sphere program, vampire survivors (and many of that type), and gemcraft type TD games.

Some games that have been recommended and tried, but don’t work for me right now or I have already finished:
mindustry, satisfactory, valheim, no man’s sky, alchemy factory, luanti, terraria.

Thanks in advance for your time. Much appreciated.

    I know you’ve said Satisfactory and Mindustry… but I can’t believe no one has suggested Factorio…

    That game is good at keeping me up at night til 2am wanting to expand and remake my factory.

    You can think of it like 2D satisfactory, but there’s much more of a base defense mechanic because you get periodically rushed at by groups of bugs annoyed at your pollution.

      I think I buried factorio in my post but should have put more emphasis on it. I love factorio. Will always. But I need a break.
