Definitely Terraria, Factorio, or Project Zomboid.
Kerbal Space Program
Crusader Kings
Dyson Sphere Program - more of a factory builder than a sandbox I guess but it is sandbox in a way
Also Garry’s mod - showing my age here but this was the classic sandbox game I grew up with
openTTD is fun if you want to harrass an abstraction of a city
Minest is a lot of fun
IMO sandbox games are games in which players have the freedom to do things that make gameplay non-linear, such as exploring the world or building structures. Sandbox games can also be based entirely on player creativity, like creating levels or even entire game modes (or games) within a game
ah, then we have a pretty similar definition :)

is rather cool and fully open-source.
Garry’s Mod
Terraria, definitely.
Considering 250GB of mods, Skyrim lol.
Stormworks: Build and Rescue!
i really want to like this game and i have reinstalled it at least a half dozen times now but i always end up extremely frustrated with it
Oh really? Why ? 🥺
i think i just suck at these kinds of games really… like i want to be able to build awesome things and it turns out to be a lot of work and I’m just not good at it
Unciv is pretty cool. It’s a open source civilization building game. Pretty entertaining with all the various mods it have
