RimWorld

RimWorld is a construction and management simulation game developed and published by Ludeon Studios for Windows, macOS, and Linux. It functions as a story generator driven by procedural 'storyteller' algorithms that select events to shape narrative experiences. Players oversee stranded colonists on a procedurally generated planet, forming and sustaining a colony while managing survival needs, mental stability, and external threats. Colonists are task-driven rather than directly controlled, and the game ends via spaceship construction, AI-assisted ship recovery, or DLC-specific endings. Events scale in difficulty and are influenced by configurable storyteller modes and difficulty presets.
