No Man's Sky

Strong character progression

A near-infinite procedurally generated universe where you hop freely between vivid alien planets, gather resources, build bases and upgrade your ships. Years of free updates have turned it into a relaxed sci-fi sandbox with optional co-op.

Slime Rancher

Strong soundtrack

As rancher Beatrix, you vacuum up adorable slimes on a distant planet, feed them and sell their plorts to expand your ranch. It pairs a laid-back farming loop with relaxed exploration of a colorful world full of secrets and new slime species.

Welcome to Elderfield

Dread and tension

A spooky farming sim with RPG elements: alongside farming, fishing, mining and cooking, you befriend townsfolk, investigate mysteries, wander eerie places like the dead mall and appeal to old gods. Its unsettling tone is the hook.

Pacific Drive

Lore and world history

You drive a car you repair and upgrade into a supernaturally warped exclusion zone in the Pacific Northwest, scavenging resources before returning to your garage. The car becomes your companion and main survival tool, while each run uncovers more of the zone's mystery.

Rebel Galaxy

Loot and gear

A swashbuckling space adventure where you pilot broadside-firing capital ships, fight pirates, trade, mine asteroids and upgrade your vessel. A rock and country soundtrack gives it a distinct space-western flavor.

Elite: Dangerous

Strong soundtrack

A space sim recreating the entire Milky Way at 1:1 scale, letting you pilot your own ship as a trader, bounty hunter, miner or explorer across billions of star systems. Demanding flight controls and sheer vastness create an unmatched sense of scale and solitude.
