The top, top shelf:

...lower shelf, but of note:

- Foundry
- Desynced
Some context on my opinions...:
- I tend to get bored without a "pressure system" (Ex: Bugs in Factorio)
- I think "infinite resource wells" is lazy/boring compared to "mineable patches." (Satisfactory has infinite wells, Factorio has patches)
- Story is a "nice to have" but I don't care that much in this type of game. (Techtonica is the only one that really feels like it moves for the story.)
