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.


Timberborn definitely. Also, Factorio, which has a better balance of simplicity, complexity, and interface automation than Satisfactory or Mindustry, as well as a different goal. Also mods lmao
I probably should have been more clear about cracktorio - It is on my list of top games because it is my most played game of all time. Possibly even surpassing the MMOs from my 20s.
Definitely a solid rec - but I’m on a factorio break right now with over 6k hours under my engineer’s belt.
Definitely Timberborn then
