I got a new gaming laptop and I feel like a kid in a candy store. Has over 1 TB and I downloaded a few games from Steam like Skyrim, Starfield, Oblivion, and a police simulator. Any recommendations whether it is old or newer? I like games like the Sims and Civilization so anything like that would work. Or Dynasty warriors. Are any Baldur’s Gates worth it? I played those old Sierra games as a kid. I may download Leisure Suit Larry since that was one I always wanted to play but knew my parents would’ve thrown a fit. Thanks in advance

A bit of harvesting from an old post of mine, as well as some new suggestions.
If you find the idea of a "cozy farming sim" interesting, I would suggest Stardew Valley ($14.99). The process of taking your grandfather's ramshackle farm and turning it into something more with a bit of story, exploration, fishing and light combat thrown in is pretty fun, and you can go at your own pace.
Against the Storm ($19.49) is a roguelite colony builder/management sim. The storm cycle annihilates everything outside of one city, so your job as viceroy is to build and manage a series of resource gathering colonies before the storm destroys everything again while keeping your colonists and the queen happy, then improving various aspects and bonuses to make future colonies stronger.
Ever play a shooter and think, "I wish this gun could have more gun." Mothergunship ($24.99) is the end result of such thinking. Use the customization system to put rocket launchers on your shotgun with some machine gun for flavor, then test fire it and decide that swapping the shotgun for a rail shotgun is the best way forward.
Now there's a name I've not heard in a long time. strokes beard I played the shit out of that when it first came out, pretty sure I still have an old boxed copy around here somewhere.
Thanks!
