Same for Dwarf Fortress and Factorio... I've heard they're all pretty great though. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] toynbee@piefed.social 3 points 7 months ago (1 child) It's okay, it's not like any of those games claim a lot of your time. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] _haha_oh_wow_@sh.itjust.works 3 points 7 months ago* Oh good, as long as they aren't like Civ or Slay the Spire. Can't wait to try out these totally casual games that will only take up a little bit of my time! permalink fedilink source parent [–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 7 months ago* DF has the deeper and more impressive simulation, but Rimworld is more fun to play imo.
