The Sims 2: Castaway

Accessible and relaxed

Your Sims are shipwrecked on a deserted tropical island and must manage food, shelter and needs from scratch. You explore the island, gather resources and gradually uncover its secrets.

Mon Bazou

Strong character progression

Mon Bazou is an open-world car-tinkering sim with Quebecois flavor: you rebuild a beat-up junker part by part, earn cash through logging, pizza delivery or night races, and gradually grow your own business and garage.

Internet Cafe Simulator

Strong character progression

You run an internet cafe in a Chinese city, buying computers and furniture and expanding your shop to earn money. Shady side jobs on the side make the business sim chaotic and entertaining.

Euro Truck Simulator 2

Bright, upbeat tone

A relaxing, surprisingly meditative trucking sim where you haul cargo across a huge, lovingly recreated Europe while slowly growing your own logistics company. The long drives down motorways and country roads are the whole appeal.

Rising World

Gameplay comes before story

A sandbox survival game with a procedurally generated, fully destructible world where you gather resources and build freely, from small huts to huge cities. Playable solo or with friends online.

cyubeVR

Accessible and relaxed

A VR voxel sandbox set in an endless procedurally generated world where you gather resources, craft and build freely. Roomscale VR controls and a dynamic day/night cycle make the building feel immersive.

Derail Valley

Bright, upbeat tone

A train simulator where you hand-drive locomotives, couple and uncouple cars, and take freight jobs across an open rail network. Convincing physics and free movement around the trains are the draw, including in VR.
