RimWorld is a sci-fi colony sim driven by an intelligent AI storyteller. Inspired by Dwar

The game probably needs no introduction, but hey, a story generator sim colony type game.

Bizarre and lots of fun. Whether it’s getting attacked by pirates, or angry rats, fighting infections or drug addictions to save your colonists. I feel a little part of me dies every time I lose a colonist. Intense.

I’m 83 hours in, and barely getting started. It’s wonderful.

Have you played RimWorld? How long for? Any interesting stories? (the steam reviews are a gold mine for this)

      I keep saying that I’ll finish a vanilla playthrough before getting into mods.

      But they keep adding expansive and amazing DLC, so I keep doing more vanilla playthroughs.

      I can say that even with official content, it’s still a very expansive war crimes simulator.

        Honestly, it’s worth looking into a few quality of life mods. The base game is great, but there are mods that allow you to automate a lot of the smaller frustrations so you don’t get so bogged down in micromanagement. Like why the hell did you just drop that food in the middle of the doorway so now the freezer’s automatic door is stuck open and all the food inside is rotting.
