I like community builders and games that I can keep a world for years and grow, watch it evolve. I enjoy Rimworld. ARK evolved series is good.

Bonus if it's multiplayer capable LAN and not online.

Oxygen not included is nice but mentally taxing sometimes. I prefer laid back chill games with economy and farming. 2d or 3d doesn't matter. I don't mind trying indie games. Survival based games are nice. I'm not super pick and choose.

Give me your greatest joy in game form. I've heard Stardew Valley is good. I tried it, reminds me of a gameboy game. I could not get into the game. My character kept falling asleep like 14 times in a day.

The only reason for your character to pass out is if you don't pay attention to your energy bar. Which can be easily renewed with food once you start getting money and production coming in.

I got so aggravated. My character I'd make go sleep inside and then come back and the guy couldn't even walk outside to plant because I had to remove the trees. Dude fell asleep like 30 times and I gave up. I might try the game again when I have more patience. Sometime. Already have a small backlog of steam games.
