Spaceteam is kind of a "Jackbox bridge simulator" if you haven't tried it. It's definitely silly and not serious, and in my experience can be enjoyed by a pretty wide audience. https://spaceteam.ca/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

I'm not sure about latency since I haven't tried Ditto, but there's a class of in-person multiplayer games that would benefit from something like this. See Spaceteam[0] for an example. [0] https://spaceteam.ca/. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

I think from the last post with this game it seems that there aren't many Artemis-like games out there, so if you think that's it that's probably it! Though unlikely, it could also be PULSAR: Lost Colony, which is conceptually similar to Artemis. Or maybe Spaceteam, or the more recent VR version? Source: almost 2 years ago

Also if you're looking for the same thing but as a screaming, stress filled, nonsense romp, where it's very VERY important for someone to dromp the flexmanipulators to 50% and to bring the rear deflector quarps to yellow, all as an app on your phones, there's Space Team. https://spaceteam.ca/.

If you haven’t heard of Neptune’s Pride [0], well… Consider this fair warning! It’s an online multiplayer strategy game, like a sci-fi cross between Risk and Monopoly. It’s played in real-time — over the course of weeks or months — between a small (≈8-32) group of anonymous strangers. Neptune’s Pride puts diplomacy at the forefront of its gameplay.

If you want all these things and exponential growth, check out Neptune's pride: https://np.ironhelmet.com/ for basically "diplomacy in space with a few extra dimensions". I haven't played in a few years (it was great at the beginning of the pandemic), but it was a lot of "fun" in the same way that diplomacy is "fun".

For people who likes the kind of backstabbing thrilling behind the scene diplomacy wackiness that ooze from Eve, but can't really get involved in it for whatever reason (most often being time, motivation, or the fact that 99% of eve gameplay is actually more excel than malta conference), I highly recommend you give Neptune's Pride [1] a try.
