Found this surprisingly interesting 'roguelike city builder'. It's both on GOG and Steam, picked it up from GOG summer sale:



Unlike most survival city builders where your focus is on a single city, in Against the Storm you must build a vast, prosperous network of settlements populated by diverse fantasy races, each with their own specializations and needs.
Against the Storm is a roguelite city builder, meaning you will carry forward the resources, upgrades, and experience of your past expeditions each time you set off for a new journey into the wild.

I have played only a couple of missions on a low difficulty, remains to be seen if it starts repeating itself too soon. But there are a lot of random events and the maps are apparently randomly generated. There is quite a sense of urgency in the beginning, but it helps when you know that spacebar pauses the game and you can still do some things when paused.
