March 2025

I started this game because the first few levels were pretty straight forward and didn't have to think too hard. But after I realized there are missions like achieving mini goals, and achieving maximum operation of the biome and animals, I loved the game even more. As the game progresses, the levels turn more into a puzzle in order to achieve all goals. End goal is reconquering and reaching environmental remediation. The art is beautiful, music is peaceful, and sfx provide a even more inclusive game engagement.

Very quaint little puzzle game! Pros: - lovely aesthetic and pixel artwork - interesting combinations of technologies for each map - relaxing music and game play. great after a long day at work to wind down. Cons: - fairly short campaign. took me 15h on the first try to complete a world run. - short supply of maps and the existing ones are pretty small - would've loved to see more complicated maps. Of all the maps played, I only had one where I needed to restart the map to complete it.

This game is so relaxing. Like, it actually works on my anxiety. If you are not a strategy game player, the easy modes are really easy. Very cute, very feel good. If you need a bit more a a challenge, you will still find what you need here. There is something so satisfying about the map taking life, getting independant past a certain point. Love it, you can buy your eyes closed.

July 2024

Having played the pre-release demo and closely followed its development, I can confidently say that this game is one of its (new) kind and delicately made with care. The fact that the devs actually did many things to better the environment in the real world with the profit made from this game adds onto the layer of reason to buy this game.

April 2024

Very relaxing, calm and satisfying gameplay loop separated into own sections with different goals for each mission/biome to restore nature with different kinds of buildings, to recycle them and to leave behind a beautifully crafted world with fully restored flora and fauna. And it looks gorgeous. For the content it contains the length is pretty much perfect - it didn't feel too long nor to short and keeps you engaged the whole time with new mechanics and a harder variation of each mission for each biome. For context: There are 4 biomes, each with it's own challenges and two missions - a normal one and a little bit harder one - on a random generated map so you can replay those missions after you've already finished them if you want to. I will definetly come back when they drop their new update with some new content.
