Tiny Harbor Town

Tiny Harbor Town lets you run a little seaside village, from the fishing docks to the bakery to the ferry schedule. It's a management sim, but a gentle one, with no energy timers trying to pull you back online or pester you to come back.

You balance a small economy: catch fish, sell goods, invest in new buildings, and keep your villagers happy. The loop is simple but satisfying, and the game remembers everything locally so you can play entirely offline.

It leans cozy over challenging, which suited me fine. There's a sweet spot around the midgame where everything starts to hum along nicely. Great for winding down, and it never once asked me for a connection.
