Technically speaking, RimWorld is a 'Colony Management Simulator'; in layman's terms, that means you're tasked with managing a colony. The colony you're tasked with managing has crash landed on a planet in outer space.
In order to keep your colony alive, you're going to have to avoid the endless amounts of things on the planet that are a threat to survival. There's deadly weather conditions (it's not Earth, after all), fires caused by lightning, enemies named raiders that will storm your town in groups, and that's just to name a few.
The end goal is to research technology and develop your colony to a point at which you are able to build a spaceship to escape the planet you crash landed on. Simple in principle, but at times seems impossible practice.
RimWorld Save Location
RimWorld saves are made locally (on your computer), so if you ever change computer, make a backup or want to share a save with someone else, you need to know which folder they're in!
