Mods - I am not sure how to read the rule against game suggestions. If it means no asking for suggestions please just wipe the post. No harm, no foul.

Fall is usually my busiest time of year preparing for winter in our little forest home. But I have been given orders from the doctors to basically take bedrest for up to 3 months, but I’m allowed to be sitting up… So books and games are basically all that is on the menu.
I enjoy automation games, tower defense, survival/building games, and exploration games.
I dislike ‘souls-like’ experiences where combat is tight and requires perfect timing. In fact in most games where combat can be disabled I usually do that.
My top games of all time would be factorio, minecraft, WoW/FFXIV (yeah… i know. But they count as one), Dyson sphere program, vampire survivors (and many of that type), and gemcraft type TD games.

Some games that have been recommended and tried, but don’t work for me right now or I have already finished:
mindustry, satisfactory, valheim, no man’s sky, alchemy factory, luanti, terraria.
Thanks in advance for your time. Much appreciated.
First thing that comes to mind is stardew valley, very chill, you can sink hundreds hour without noticing, best farm sim out there.
About automation and roguelike, I’d suggest plateup, it’s a cooking roguelike where you manage a restaurant, but there are some automation elements to it, one of the things I like doing is building fully automated restaurants to beat a run.
Still on roguelike, I sunk a few hours on backpack hero, where backpack management is the most important thing and battles are turn focused instead of action focused, position and items you have will be the difference.
All of these are very fun and hooked me for hours for different reasons, hope you’ll enjoy them.
plateup and backpack hero are both new to me. Thanks! Stardew lost my interest but was definitely a lot of fun for a while.
