There are a few games that are fixtures on my PC and get reinstalled every time I get a new one. RimWorld is one of them.

RimWorld the basic game has a lot to it. With the multi-verse of Mods it gets crazy. For those who like to micromanage, build, experiment, enjoy data overload/metrics, enjoy steady progress, challenges to that progression, and general "WTF just happened?!?" moments... well, that basically describes RimWorld game play.

You basically start with one or more people w/ limited resources, build a settlement entirely from the ground up, completely sustain that settlement (food, power, etc. using finite resources), fend off attackers (insects, mechanoids, people), build relationships (or not) with other factions, interact with wildlife or be eaten/trampled/mauled/gored by them.

I do not play the base game any more. I have a set of mods I use that have been fixtures over the years. I am thankful for the modding community who have maintained some of them over five game versions and four years.

I also do not do the endgame scenarios either. For some reason I want to rid the world of ALL -100 settlements and see what happens. I still working on that.. I'll get there one day. Just give me another 2000 hours...
