I'm a sucker for games like Minecraft, Factorio, etc. Raising a garden is like a slow motion version of those things. It's a fusion of creative and scientific/engineering brains. It's great.
I can't believe you didn't mention Stardew Valley. It is a smash hit game and your comment is basically a short essay as to why it is so popular and enjoyable.

The more I've learned about gardening the less fun I find the abstraction of gardening games.
I think it's mainly about how important soil health is for growing plants and how poorly this concept seems to be modeled in games.
Oh yeah, I love Stardew Valley. And it's an obvious miss in a thread about gardening.
