If you want a weird recommendation that isn't a SciFi clone but matches a really wild world with some pretty hard rules with loose justification because its cool.

The Lost Swords: Fred Saberhagen. It feels like the kind of stuff where you praise your character for their ingenuity and cringe at their failures. World is also real neat.
