I think it either needs to be more simple so it's easier to get into and play, or alternatively even more complex so it feels like there's a lot to manage and take care of which might give it more feedback when you are \"doing well.\" Perhaps a middle ground of easier to start playing, and more and more complexities are introduced, but that might be harder to design.
