Why these games appear

A useful lens, not a one-word dump

An open-ended simulation in which player-directed construction, experimentation, or user-created scenarios are the primary recurring activity; Sandbox remains the structural framework.

Include when

The game has repeated, evidence-backed sandbox sim play within a compatible root.

Leave out when

Do not assign Sandbox Sim when the evidence is incidental, cosmetic, or only present in marketing copy.
