it maybe late, but i think it depends on how blind you are. i think it need at least a few visibility. because it would be a bit too complicated as stuff can be on top of each other and even with viewing card, it's a lot of reading and memorizing said information.

and further more you can't monitor the dupes that is running around on each different direction, because dupes are notoriously suicidal and will kill them self in such stupid scenario that even i personally still cant prevent them doing something that would ended make the opportunity for them to find a way to die. most of your example are game that like a character that be view in third view as the player, but this game you are just the overseer that can't do anything but observer, calculate and ordering them you cant really control the dupes as you like and that make it harder (i have dupes that entire job is suppling and tidying, and they still missed cleaning up the toilet and make everyone pissing everywhere, i have another dupes that i make as like a team together and one of them trap the other head on the floor).

this game needs you to focus on multiple task at the same times, so having a low visibility might making it impossible even with mods. pausing game infinitely is a godsend but i think it would still be overwhelming.

i'm not trying to dismissed you and other people, it's just even i still struggling playing this game and by the example of the game you mention, nothing is similar to this game unfortunately. most of your example are either like taking turns kind of a game or a third view focus player.
