Space Engineers is really fun. Kind of a cross between Minecraft and Factorio, but in space.
Terraria. It’s a sort of hybrid between a minecraft 2d and an action RPG, really fun game with lots of content.
You can play it as standalone or as co-op and the server component is included in the game for you to host it if you want.
Tho If by interesting you mean MMOs, there are emulators for a few of them, WoW is my favorite (TrinityCore, AzerothCore), but know that opening them up to public use is illegal (copyright violation).
Edit: added github links to wow emulators.
Project Zomboid is worth looking at. It’s not my kind of game, but it’s great at what it is (top down zombie survival crafring)
Core Keeper
To further my little mention about Runescape though I meant classic I believe there are efforts with the modern-day one: https://github.com/Open-RSC/Core-Framework
You can also host final fantasy 11 servers: https://github.com/LandSandBoat/server
