If there is any game genre known for making hours vanish, it would be the base-building genre with games like Sons of the Forest and Rimworld. Although it is rarely the only genre many games fall into, building mechanics allow players to channel their inner architects, undergoing grand projects at impressive scales with intuitive controls. Base building has become so popular that it has snuck its way into games that many players wouldn’t expect to find them in, like Fallout 4.
