Yep, that second vote is from me. 16th spot to be exact. Oxygen not Included was 2nd, Songs of Syx is 37th, the Universim is 25th while I hadn't played Judgement yet when I made the list, but will be on the list this year., and Banished didn't make the cut because it really needs the colonial charter mod to get good and I considered that cheating a bit...

Odd Realm I got on Itch.io in some bundle. I like it but with the others I tend to forget about it a bit. Against the Storm I only got the demo so far. Dwarf fortress I played a bit, but those karps always destroyed my colony after a while...

LOL, Rise to Ruin is #15 on my list, so we both ranked it quite high. Oxygen I didn't play before I made the list, but it will rank lower than Rise, maybe making the TOP 50, maybe not, we will see. Judgment is also something I already acquired by now, but have yet to play. Songs of Syx will come before though, although it looks like I need to watch tutorials on Youtube to get it. Something I needed with Dwarf Fortress as well.

Odd Realm is kinda "cozy" for Colony Sims, it is quite easy to get a stable basic economy. But it also has the 3D worlds like Dwarf Fortress, while most games (Rimworld, Rise to Ruins, Oxygen not Included) reduce the levels to two dimensions. And it is quite nice to build towering structures or dig deep into the earth, make a pyramid or other stuff. That is kinda missing from the 2D games, although the often have some options to make nice camps. Clanfolk comes to mind here, it is such a game with focus on simulating early scottish clans. it has some nice decorations.

To be fair, I'm playing Oxygen with quite a few mods, the vanilla experience is probably a bit different.

Songs of Syx got an update lately that greatly upgraded the graphics... and changed the economy around (Trees and stone piles award much more material than before and you can now build buildings without either using mud, but storage space got massively reduced), so I'm relearning how to play it effectively now.
