Pretty much how I felt too. I looooved Frostpunk and wanted more games like that. 100+ hours and loved every second, but eventually gotta move on. Tried Anno 1800 and liked it but not as much, got maybe 50 hours out of it. Tried Against the Storm and after 10 hours of not feeling anything I uninstalled. Really don’t get why Frostpunk and Against the Storm get lumped together, other than both having mechanics of building buildings and assigning workers. There’s sooooo much more to Frostpunk beyond that.

Have you tried Factorio? If you want something that you can invest some time in the then that might be what you want.

Ooooh yeah Factorio and I are well acquainted, think I’m probably close to 500 hours on that. Definitely closer to Frostpunk than AtS
