I'm looking for a new colony sim on PC. What I've played so far are:

Rimworld
Oxygen Not Included
Banished
Timberworld
Frostpunk
Anno 1800

I know some of these might not be strictly colony sims. What I'm really looking forward to is Manor Lords, but we don't have a definite release date on that.

What are your recommendations?

Rimworld with mods is literally an endless experience. I've played 800 hours and come back to play another 50 every few months.

How is it on the deck? Playable with the touch pad?

I have Rimworld and a deck and it plays great. Sure kb+m is better but honestly I was very surprised how well it controls on the deck. Doing things like laying out where to build, mine etc is a bit fiddly on the track pad but you can always pause to do that. It's good enough and I have gotten so use to it that I play it mostly on deck now
