Oof, going to have to trim my favorites (story, single-player) simply for the replay value ones.
- Minecraft: been a decade or so but the open-ended style means almost infinite replay value.
- Cyberpunk 2077: Just love the lore and world. I have over 1k hours, another 1k won’t be hard. With mods, even more.
- Metal Gear Solid Master Collection 1: These games are ridiculous and I love them.
- RDR2: Story-based but I can kill a LOT of time just by not rushing. Lovely game.
- Stardew Valley: So much replay value, so much to do in one playthrough alone. Easy pick.
- Minesweeper: Great for killing small amounts of time.
- Timberborn: Scratch that colony sim itch.
- Subnautica: scratch that survival-craft itch.
- Balatro: for variety i guess. Enjoy it well enough.
- Sekiro: Haven’t finished but I need a hard skill check for when im feeling masochistic.
Runner Up: Mass Effect trilogy LE. Fantastic games, and I need that space itch scratched too. Bumped for genre variety reasons.

As much as I like Timberborn, I do wonder about its replayability value. Near endgame, I kind of run out of stuff to do. Although its mod scene is definitely growing, so that should help.

For sure, I just haven’t found another that i enjoy as much, and I really enjoy a good management game like that when the mood strikes. I’ve played some others, and this one hits my sweetspot for scale, environmental elements, and overall feel. Haven’t seriously tried Oxygen Not Included, just watched some gameplay and been intrigued but not hooked. Same goes for The Wandering Village and Cult of the Lamb.
And yeah, endgame can get a bit aimless, but if I got bored I would probably just impose my own rules to keep things lively
