Games Like Per Aspera (2026)

Shared: Colony Management

Hundreds of hours in and I still haven't seen everything RimWorld can throw at a colony, that alone tells you whether this one deserves a slot on your drive.

Shared: Tech Tree

Factory automation scaled to a solar system: if a 100-hour belt-routing puzzle sounds like a holiday, Dyson Sphere Program is the most ambitious entry in the genre that Factorio started.

Shared: Narrative Strategy

Ruling a dying city in a Victorian ice age sounds romantic until your coal runs out at 3am and you draft child labor laws just to see the sun rise.

Shared: Slow Burn

You are a slugcat: small, soft, and very much on the menu. Rain World is a brutal ecosystem sim where survival means reading the world, not mastering a combo list.

Shared: Supply Chain

A deceptively deep agricultural sim that rewards patience and spreadsheet thinking, with seasons and production chains finally giving veterans a real reason to plan beyond the next harvest.
