There's a genre of game I've always wanted to get into, but I can't think of any titles off the top of my head.

Usually the game is colonial, pirate, or sci-fi themed. You go around buying and selling stuff, maintaining and upgrading your ship, and dealing with stuff that happens.

I want to play a game like that what should I play.

Is combat focus a deal breaker? If not: Faster Than Light Volcanoids (early access) Darkest dungeon (kind of) Xcom

If you step away from the ship, things like mass effect and outer worlds come to mind. If the ship can be a base there's a whole world there. Astroneer, planet crafter (early access), Starbound, terraria, Subnautica If exploration/colony sim is cool you're looking at factorio, rift breaker, frostpunk, ixion (hardcore!), satisfactory

I expect I've stayed from your prompt at this point. It's a tough niche. Good luck with your search!

Edit: on mobile, don't know why my line breaks didn't work. Forgive the formatting.
