What asynchronous games, or games with asynchronous features would you recommend?

A recent example being Death Stranding and its light social features of indirectly building/maintaining structures or leaving helpful equipment around. The Souls’ games message system is another even lighter example.

I enjoy these indirect, optional social features in some games, but they seem few and far between.

Preferably no MMOs/always online game recommendations. Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the suggestion!

This is definitely in the vein of what I’m interested in, however real-time mechanics as you mention, “Each action (like sending a ship to a location) typically takes an hour or two to finish.” are never to my tastes, even if the game is wholly built around them.

Still, I’ve read some amusing stories produced from games of Subterfuge, so at least I’ve managed some secondhand entertainment from it!

Yeah it’s not for everyone, but it is free to play if it ever piques your interest enough to try!
