Hello! I’m looking for any game recommendations on GOG – especially anything that’s on sale! Tell me about your favorite few games that you have on GOG, or maybe some gems in the rough out there. I’ve seen a few threads on Steam lately, so it feels appropriate to me to look for some love on one of the smaller game systems. I’ll mention a couple of my favorites, but feel free to mention anything you like!

Rimworld - An alien-planet civilization sim kind of game. I’ve gotten many hours out of this one. And with some mods and DLC… oh man. I might be ashamed to see how many hours I’ve played it.

Northgard - I think you’d call this an RTS. Super rad, wish it was longer. I’ll swing back around and re-play the whole campaign sometime. I just now noticed they have an expansion pack, so maybe I’ll get that soon.

Sid Meier’s Railroads - Railroad sim. Another one that I’ve dumped a ridiculous number of hours into.

Faster Than Light (FTL) - rogue-like spaceship game?! I don’t know how to describe it, but I loved it.

I also recently picked up Starship Troopers: Terran Command and Graveyard Keeper, but haven’t taken the time to play them, yet. I have Stardew Valley on GOG – Not an all-time favorite, but definitely got my money’s worth and had fun with it.

A few I’ve had my eye on but would love to hear outside opinions: Patron, Space Crew, Mars Base. They look interesting, and probably any little nudge would get me to buy and try.
