Threads? I completely forgot about Threads because this is the first time I've seen news about it since the week it launched. And I doom scroll Lemmy Everything every night.
Kenshi. Take a look at it. You control people in a very active world, but you build settlements and mine iron, stone and copper and build things, and explore to get more research to build better things and improve your people so they can build even bigger and better things. Deep lore if you like that as well, but easy to ignore.
This made me think of the game Screencheat. You play split screen but everyone is invisible so you have to look at the other player's views.
