Hi everyone, I'm looking for some grindy games to play on the deck (any genre is OK).

Currently playing monster hunter world and I think I'll give factorio a try.

Any suggestions?

No mans Sky is pretty good. My buddy and I teamed up and make a series of production facilities across a network of planets in order to provide enough materials to manufacture the most expensive items in the game.

There was no reason to do that considering how charitable people are, but we just did it anyway.

You can also grind for the best ships and gear and stuff, or build a base on a planet or on a space freighter.

I attempted to do that once. I got a couple hours into calculating exactly what all I needed before giving up. Especially after figuring out it's not even the best way to make money in the game. But I've also spent hours and hours designing and building bases just for fun, so I get it.

Yeah I couldn’t have done it alone. My friend did the calculation and I did the planet hunting. We’d team up to pinpoint optimal resource points and constructing their facilities. However, since he owned some facilities and I owned others, we could only access them all when we were both online. Also, only he had the recipe for some parts and I the others, so we had to do some passing back and forth to complete the process. We only ever did it once and realized we probably wouldn’t need to do it ever again with all the money we got out of it.
