What the title says. If I was to best describe what I liked so much about it, I would say that it was how it had both a serious 'cozy factor' (ex: anno 1800) while still being difficult and requiring effort+skill to win. What other games scratch that itch?

There's actually a game option that let's you censor them. I heard they built it in because one of the developers has arachnophobia. :)

@Namstel @RobotZap10000 the result is imho even more frightening. Mew mew 🤣

I've actually already got a couple hundred hours in CoI lol, but it's definitely something to check out for others reading this.

I will also say that it's VERY dangerous to play while stoned lol.

The other two are obviously good, but seriously try Captain of Industry! Nothing like watching your mining operations slowly but surely terraform the face of your island lol

Dyson Sphere Program is like Satisfactory if it had good game design and less bugs.

I've never played Industries of Titan, but what I can garner from screenshots and such is that it's a management/base building game, so:

Satisfactory (especially the cosiness)

Factorio - peak management (2.0 coming out soon also)

Stardew Valley - peak cozy, the world is the total opposite of a dystopia though.

At least half a year before Factorio 2.0 comes out. Maybe more. But goddamn, it's shaping up to be good. Honestly can't wait
