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?

I’ll second Timberborn, it seems like a simple game but it gets complicated towards the end.

If factory games are your jam then I can’t recommend Captian Of Industry and Dyson Sphere Program enough, both are S tier factory games for me. The Riftbreaker is another interesting combo of colony building and tower defense as well.

How can you even mention factory games without pointing out Factorio.

Oh that’s definitely on the list, I thought I saw someone else mention it facepalm
