Sounds like you’re ready for the wonderful universe of TBS games (Turn Based Strategy). There a soo many sub genres but you can filter the steam shop for turn-based and read reviews and recommendations. Some personal highlights:

• Civilization (5 and 6)
• Heroes of Might and Magic (get HoMM 3 on GOG!)
• Old World
• Battle Brothers
• Dorfromantik
• Magic: The Gathering Arena
• RimWorld (with pause)
• Cities Skylines 2 (not rly TBS but you can pause)
• For The King
• Total War: Warhammer III (I do auto battles)
• Wartales
• The Last Spell
• Stoneshard
• Age of Wonders 4
• Mechabellum (semi TBS)

RDR 2 is already on my wishlist. Thx for the tip.

Thx, I will check them out!

Wow, this looks like fun. Thx for the tip

Thx for your answer. Sounds logic and plausible and I didn’t thought about the effort for the actual physics calculations.

This looks very good, thx.

This looks cool, thx for the tip

Maybe you’re right. So, IMHO, there seems to be a niche for a game with a sweet spot between accurate physics and fun?

Thx, I will have a look into these games.

Thx, I will watch some videos of it.

Overgrowth looks… too goofy, I guess. But it seems like no dev caught the sweet spot between accuracy and fun?

Not only but mainly yes

They (Crazy Goat Games) just c&p and replaced the assets of their own game Republic of Pirates…

Battle Brothers: Battle Brothers is a turn based tactical RPG which has you leading a mercenary company in a gritty, low-power, medieval fantasy world. You decide where to go, whom to hire or to fight, what contracts to take and how to train and equip your men in a procedurally generated open world campaign. The Godfather of Squad-Management-Games!

Songs of Conquest: If you like Turn-Based-Strategy and know HoMM3, you will love this game! Songs of Conquest is a turn-based strategy game inspired by 90s classics. Lead powerful magicians called Wielders and venture to lands unknown. Wage battle against armies that dare oppose you and hunt for powerful artifacts.
