Factorio and Flow
I started my Christmas vacation by reading the Observer Effect profile of Shopify CEO Tobi Lütke, where he talks about Factorio (a game where you build massive, complex factories). Tobi considers the game so profound and valuable in the lessons it teaches that any Shopify employee can buy and expense it. That sounded pretty intriguing so I decided try out the game and ended up getting hooked pretty quickly. I’m not actually entirely sure what pushed me over the edge.
