NHL Hitz 2002 was my shit.

This was the arcade game Midway made before they did the NHL Hitz series. NHL Open Ice Challenge.
 
This is the first computer hockey game I ever played. Superstar Ice Hockey.

Late 80s/early 90s timeframe. I think I was running a Pentium 386 at the time

Grim Dawn? yea/nay?

If you like slower ARPGs, definite yea. Build diversity is damn good. @Captain Dave Poulin is a fan too.

If you're on PC, there are some excellent QoL mods such as:

 
Mutant League Hockey is obscenely expensive nowadays. Can't find a copy for under $80 usually. I do own Gretzky 3D though.

For fans of Banished-style city/survival games, Farthest Frontier looks pretty decent. Just released in Early Access... so I'm sure it has a long way to go. I was a fan of Banished, really enjoyed Frostpunk.

Now that I have a PS5, i'm getting the itch to finally snag the new Horizon game. It's down to $49.99. Heard great things and enjoyed the first one.

Don't let your dreams be dreams. I picked it up myself, and it seems to do a good job of following in the footsteps of the first game.

It also may be the single most beautiful video game I've ever played. I'm only a few hours in, and I'm constantly being distracted by the skyline.
