RimWorld
Much like Dwarf Fortress, RimWorld provides a basic outline and huge learning curve but ultimately opens up in terms of possibilities. Each of your colonists has a distinctive personality and scenarios like turning prisoners of war into brutal war machines, effectively watching your colony go mad and eat each other and so on can happen. Even better are the inclusion of AI story-tellers who can either increase the difficulty of negative events or gleefully cause random things, both good and bad to happen.
