What it is

Autonauts is a colony simulation game where players program workerbots using a visual language to automate tasks and build settlements. It offers a sandbox experience focused on creative problem-solving and resource management.

The catch

You must act out every bot instruction by hand, making repeat programming tedious.

Why it is here

It is here because it sits in the band this site looks at: well reviewed at 90% positive, but with 4,940 reviews, far fewer than the household names carry.
