I was just scrolling through my most played on Steam and the closest one to average that I can think of is probably Planetbase. It's basically a space colony building simulator. This is the kind of game that you boot up once every 3-4 years, play through a whole colony, and then uninstall and forget about. Not bad by any means, but I wouldn't say it's very exceptional either. While it has some challenge scenarios and different planets with their own characteristics, the game boils down to the exact same formula once you get a self-sufficient base started, and therefore replayability is really not there. However, it has entertained me for over 100 hours in the past 8 years, so do with that information what you will.

A perfect 5 or 6 out of 10.
