Games that involve managing a number of resources or building systems to automatically create resources.

  • Grow: Song of the Evertree

    Grow: Song of the Evertree

    Another life sim, but this one is about gardening. You’re the last of the Everheart Alchemists, a young apprentice trying to figure out if it’s even possible to beat back the Withering that’s destroyed the precious Evertree and silenced the Song of Myora, and after many years of experementing with your trusty partners Book and…

  • Sky Factory 4

    Sky Factory 4

    So Minecraft, amirite? I did say I’d do one of these eventually, but I don’t really know how to tag or categorise it, so uhhhh, time for a ‘Mods’ category, I suppose. Anyway, you’ll need Minecraft for this one, of course. Skyblock is a genre of map/modpack where you start from a tree on a…

  • Factory Town

    Factory Town

    This is a weird one to recommend, I saw it on the Jingle Jam bundle and thought why not give it a try. Turns out its actually an incredibly deep management simulation styled like a town simulation game, with a fairly wide range of things to manage and consider.

  • Potion Craft

    Potion Craft

This game has one of the most unique crafting systems I’ve personally ever seen. Each day you can pick up some plants from your garden, as well as buy some plants or minerals…

  • Cult of the Lamb

    Cult of the Lamb

    This game is so cute and adorable and it filled up a Moonlighter shaped hole in my heart that I didn’t even know was there, as well as introducing me to Animal Crossing kinda? I don’t know… All I know is that this scrimblo is adorable and everyone should forefit their earthly posessions to him.

  • Dyson Sphere Program

    Dyson Sphere Program

    A slightly different take on the factory management game, the whole thing takes place on a sphere. Or should I say a lot of spheres. You see, you get given ownership over an entire sector of space for you to use and exploit however you want to, and you have to use those resources to…

  • Shapez

    Shapez

    Shapez is the single most distilled form of a factory building and simulation game I have ever played. Most other games of the genre have something extra adding friction to the game, such as resource or money costs, enemies trying to break your stuff, having to manage a power grid, or even having to play…
