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