* Many {{Programming Game}}s are conceptual members of this genre, whenever they impose a strict limit on the number of lines you can write. [[note]]Commands stand in for Facilities that must be fitted into the limited space, whereas the Data itself is the Commodity being refined. Overall, this works very much like a highly-abstracted Commodity Game.[[/note]] Of course, they are significantly different from any of the other games listed here (enough to warrant being members of their own separate genre).

* The further the player gets into ''VideoGame/EverOasis'', the more it becomes a mixture of Mayor and Commodity. At first, the player will have no issue placing down just about every shop they get, and if anything, running out of money to place them. You have to have a variety of shops to attract more residents, which itself allows you to build a wider variety of shops. But later on, the Oasis level-ups that increase the amount of space you have become fewer and far in between, resulting in the player being forced to try and decide whether or not they want to use that space for more plants that boost sales of nearby booths, where to place them for maximum effect, whether to place them ''period'' (as placing them in any spot but the end forces the player to essentially give up a shop that a new resident might want), which shops to keep (since shops become more profitable as they level up), and whether to keep the new shop you just built once the interested resident has moved in. Players must ''also'' get stock for their shops, since keeping your shops well stocked will keep your Oasis Morale high. Naturally, since shops require different items that can be obtained in-game through different ways, a player will be forced to decide whether or not it's even worth ''keeping'' the shop, since shops that are out of stock will lower the morale and your potential day-to-day earnings. While you are able to make seedlings who are ''not'' tending a shop work on the garden, your space in the garden is also limited as well. Oh, and finally, Morale - you absolutely ''must'' keep your morale high, as a higher morale translates to more health your characters have in the field. Festivals are also a great way to boost sales and morale (even allowing it to persist), but [[RealityEnsues they will absolutely wipe out your stock]], meaning you have to keep a steady flow of even basic early-game supplies at hand.

Furthermore, there is now the option to tame and care for animals whom you cannot control, and plans to allow the colony to host visitors from other nearby colonies in order to improve diplomacy.
