    Cons: Sailing mechanics not yet implemented; developers are still working on them. Currently in a "To be announced" release state with no official user ratings. Windows-only release available through Steam platform.

  • Pros: Vertical skyscraper layout turns spatial planning into core gameplay. Influence faction system ties editorial choices to tangible city relationships. Over 30 distinct job roles provide staffing depth and varied specializations.

    Cons: Complex production chains demand sustained micromanagement. Faction bargains force repeated trade-offs limiting editorial purity. Weekly deadlines add pressure that stretches single-session play.

  • Pros: Doomsday asteroid mechanic introduces urgent, time-driven objectives. 360-degree planting and ceiling farming expand base design options. Peat resource opens new power and food production routes. Archaic decorative items (Fossil Displays, rugs) enrich base aesthetics.

    Cons: Asteroid timer raises micromanagement and tempo of runs. Carnivorous predators complicate ranching and increase logistics. Requires the base title to play.

  • Pros: Adds swimming and diving with Basic Swimming and Divemaster skills. Four distinct biomes with unique flora and fauna to explore. Rubber resource enables insulated wiring, gaskets, and protective boots. Tidal Turbine converts liquid movement into electrical generation.

    Cons: High mechanical density favors experienced players over newcomers. Requires the base Oxygen Not Included game to play. New rescue and skill systems increase early micromanagement demands.

  • Pros: Physics-driven combat replaces hit points with displacement tactics. Modular deckbuilding lets players assemble bespoke mechanical towers. Sandbox Mode plus planned Workshop support encourages experimentation and sharing.

    Cons: Pre-release status means features and balance may change. Technical, experiment-focused design may deter casual pick-up sessions. Competitive endless runs depend on mastering physics rather than instant action.

  • Pros: Tactile chopping mechanics that accentuate reward from each action. Incremental upgrades that alter play rhythm and resource yield. Handcar travel offers distinct, paced exploration between biomes. Online co-op enables shared, low-pressure sessions with friends.

    Cons: Purely narrow focus may disappoint players seeking varied objectives. No high-stakes modes, since there are no timers or combat. Base-building scope is present but not deeply detailed. Windows PC only, available via Steam.
