What are some comfy colony sims in the same vein as Rimworld?
that beaver game
Dwarf Fortress
Amazing Cultivation SimulatorIt's more about leveling overpowered magical kung-fu warriors than managing moods and resources for survival, but it's comfy and you can clearly see the Rimworld influence.It's quite the wiki-game though, there's tons of mechanics and details the game doesn't tell you, but I think it's the best and most interesting wuxia game out there.
Its like Rimworld with that one medieval mod but you can build in 3D.
>>737358801Rimworld is basically a streamlined Dward Fortress.
>>737359237>>737359414>>737359415I just wish these other games had the same moddability and modding community as Rimworld
>>737358582Banished, preferably modded.
>>737359921survival builder, not a colony sim
>>737359415Is whiskerwood just Timberborn with rats?
>>737361473no, its 3d oxygen not included/factorio with rats
>>737361702How does it compare with that other rat colony that is 2d like ONI, besides the number of dimensions?
Songs of Syx
>>737362234ratopia is a basic medieval survival builder in 2d. You're tunneled vision into the artstyle when gameplay is what matters with colony sims compared to abstracted builders
>>737361702That makes it seem a lot more interesting.
>>737362360looks exactly my flavor of autism. Thanks
>>737362360The game is fantastic but everyday I pray we get a modding community going similar to rimworld.
>>737358719Beaver game blows once you realize the only challenges are routing bad water 180° back into the edge of the map and storing enough water for 30 daysAfter that you are basically just playing sandbox and even before that it isn't difficult to stockpile thousands of units of water and food
>>737365894This, but it's comfy
>>737365894>challengeit's about seeing how many beavers you can fit on one map. rimworld has zero challenge too once you realise to just abuse the pathfinding ai.
>>737365980it's pretty comfy and has nice water, I'll give it that
Foundation was pretty promising when I played it a couple of months ago. Very comfy, too.
>>737365894it was very fun to get all the achievements but i've certainly had my fill of it. got my money's worth, for sure. something nuts like beating every map with both factions is something i'd have done 20 years ago but i'm not that dedicated anymore.
>>737365992You are not wrong and maybe I'm being too harsh, it's just a bit disappointing
>>737358582ratopia
>>737366171it's very cozy but also very slow feeling. by the time i'm halfway through unlocking stuff i'm bored of looking at the same little village for so long
>>737359415ONI is such a wacky fucking game. actually had me pondering sustainability and recycling IRL in between raging at my most recent fuckup or being baffled by some 'simple' design i finally decided to look up
>>737366407It's a truely great game that I don't play often because the dupe artstyle is kind of vomit inducing to me turning me off it.
>>737358582KeeperRL is pretty good, it's like a beginner's version of Dwarf Fortress, so if you like the idea of DF but don't like the insane granularity, play KeeperRL
was anyone else here around for the Urist McOP threads? the quest to become a necromancer, where he has his severed hand as a pet for while? had to become a vampire to traverse the ocean?good shit. made a lot of OC for those threads that i haven't seen in ages
>>737359490>>737365765Rimworld being 2D with simplistic artstyle makes it easy to mod so I doubt there will be an another colony sim with so many mods.>>737366280I thought about getting it for qt rat princess.is it actually good? Looks kinda like Craft the World but with rats they actually look like mice desu
Its not quite the same but i like against the stormIts kinda a citybuilder roguelite where you basically just have to get a small town set up and running for a couple years, but you have multiple races have specializations and need to have all their different needs met, which is the part that reminds me of rimworld
>>737358582Starmancer, space haven, Stardeus, Going medieval, CryoFall
>>737366303I didn't get that sense, but I understand what you mean. It has mod support, so maybe this can simply be fixed with a mod.
>>737367228i played both and ratopia was much more enjoyable
>>737358582not with the same sheer amount of mods available
>>737367228also yes it is basically craft the world but mice
also if anyone was curiousmanor lords is still shit
>>737362360Playing the demo right now.Looks like this is where i'll sink the next 500 hours of my life.
>>737368227This is the Dragons Dogma of city builders. Full of potential, terrible delivery.
>>737368435>not patiently waiting for the full course mEAl
>>737367503real fun lite citybuilder but it got soooo repetitive. once i was on the third or 4th cycle or whatever, i was incapable of continuing. i bet the DLC adds some more variety though
>>737368227good to know, thank you
>>737368541this is what i'm doing. when syx is 1.0 i'm buying it immediately and going in blind.
