Modular ship builder/breaker?
My 5 year old and I have developed a new routine before bed of playing a game together for a little bit at night.
He really enjoys ship graveyard simulator and starfields ship building. We dont actually "play" starfield, we just sit and build out ships based on his ideas. He also got a kick out of hardspace ship breaker.
Any other games like this that we can do together? Combat/other mechanics around this core are fine since he will only be engaging with the construction/deconstruction aspects of the game.
*EDIT Kerbal was actually on sale, so we are taking that and all the recommendations for it as a happy coincidence amd purchasing it.
