* In ''VideoGame/EvolveIdle'', Mercury cannot host a permanent population, but it can be used for power generation and to facilitate the construction of the Dyson Swarm. Note that it is only called Mercury if you play as humans -- each race calls it a different name.

* ''WebOriginal/OrionsArm'': In the Solar System's early history -- that is, for a couple thousand years after the present day -- Mercury was a major hub for mining and industrial activity. Mining flourished thanks to Mercury's high concentration of metals, including ones like osmium and platinum that were found more abundantly in its depths than anywhere else in the system, while its proximity to the Sun provided the energy necessary to manufacture vast quantities of antimatter to use as starship fuel. Eventually, this activity dried up due to the exhaustion of Mercury's resources and to the development of reactionless drives that didn't require antimatter fuel, but the planet remains densely inhabited -- most of its old dome cities are still intact and populated, and billions of people live in the layers of tunnels and caverns that were dug out to extract Mercury's metals.

* In ''VideoGame/TerraInvicta'', Mercury has access to plentiful solar radiation and an abundance of base metals. Accordingly, by the endgame it's usually a major hive of human activity.

The process of transferring the energy back to Earth is said to be incredibly lossy, but it doesn't matter since the output is so huge. Spider regards it as one of humanity's greatest achievements.
