Turn a barren wasteland into an ecological paradise complete with different flora and fauna. Then clean up, leaving the environment pristine.

Subverting the builder genre, Terra Nil is about the restoration of a ravaged environment.

Terra Nil presents players with a task of global environmental rejuvenation. The open-ended strategy progresses through multiple stages of restoration, begin with the water system, slowly purify the soil, and cultivate pioneer greenery. Embark on more ambitious tasks, restore biodiversity, fix the climate, introduce wildlife, and finally recycle all the structures you used to get there, leaving the environment pristine.

Navigate sprawling, procedurally generated maps with lush hand painted environments where everything but the rocks move and breathe. Restore the world’s climate with unique weather patterns for different regions and a beautiful and meditative reactive soundtrack and audio palette. Yet even within a region, no two playthroughs will be the same.

Just one week after the release of  Terra Nil, the game has amassed 300,000 environmental enthusiasts and had just under 50,000 trees planted in its name, capturing nearly 6,000 tonnes of CO2 via Tree Nation.

Additionally, developer Free Lives is donating 8% of its profits from sales of Terra Nil on Steam to the Endangered Wildlife Trust – making it more than just a good game – it’s a game for good. An army of eco-conscious streamers and their viewers—the Terra Nil Tree Warriors, organized by Tree-Nation—planted 45,528 trees around the world, capturing 5,964 tonnes of CO2 across 43 hectares of reforested land.

Terra Nil is available for PC (Steam) and Netflix (Android) at $24.99.
