Seeking Games where you start with nothing and slowly build up to something (rags to riches)?

I'm looking to make a thread of games that utilise a 'rags to riches' style of gameplay. Here are some examples of the ones I am aware of.

Examples:
- Delta Zone's weaponsmith system where you start with no weapon parts and slowly work your way up to a top of the line assault rifle with the best clothing possible.
- Karryn's Prison, where you start with all floors rioting and slowly rebuild your prison from rubble using the Edicts system.
- Defective Sex Bot Chop Shop, where you start with no bots and have to scavenge through garbage heaps to find a barely functional robot, eventually working your way up to the top of the line models.
- Masters of Raana, where you start with little money, no influence, a decrepit old house, and no slaves, eventually working your way up to riches.

Already played (and recommend):
- Ane Kasegi: Manage a bar from the selection of meals and stocktaking to promotions and clothing. (NTR)
- On Edge: Rebuild a destroyed village sector by sector by extracting 'material' from the villagers. Turn based card gameplay.
- Succum Brewery: Rebuild an abandoned rooftop bar alongside a rebooted AI with ulterior motives. Turn based bar management with upgrades.
- My Dystopian Robot Girlfriend: Rebuild a sex bot literally limb by limb. Progression based off of part quality and money making.
- Lab Rats 2: Rebuild a corporation dedicated to manufacturing serums that affect suggestibility and arousal, and use them how you please. (Text based. Character models are portrayed nude in the scenes, but don't really act out the scenes)
- Cost of Survival: Build a harem of slaves and rebuild your ruined house. 'Sims' style management of the main character and the slaves.
- Revenge: Build up a roster of slaves and upgrade your camp and wagon.

Already played (and didn't enjoy):
- Porn Empire: Boring scenes, but enjoyable management.

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

i feel these are somewhat of fits to what you seek, though only in L&C and Strive: Conquest are you completely "rags" due to storyline but thats optional in Strive 2. Both have you edit your home base in time. The others you inherit benefits that help (SFP and Harem Hotel). Or there arent really any "building" mechanics i.e. Tomie but you are rags to your goal, if you so choose.
