Release Date: March 28, 2023
An original strategy puzzle game in which we restore life to the wilderness. In Terra Nil, we irrigate the soil, restore biodiversity, and bring wildlife to refreshed areas to create self-contained, vibrant ecosystems.
Terra Nil is an intriguing combination of a strategy game and puzzle game, which could be described as a reverse city builder. Rather than build cities, our task is to restore life to wastelands. It was developed by Free Lives, also responsible for the warmly received Broforce (although initially it was the work of just three independent developers who released the game's first build on itch.io) and published by Devolver Digital.
The gameplay of Terra Nil is shown from an isometric perspective. The game's paced rather slowly and takes place on procedurally generated wastelands located in different regions.
Our first move should always be to build a wind turbine to generate electricity and create infrastructure to irrigate soil. This lets us get rid of pollution, allowing plant growth. Afterwards we can handle more complex tasks, such as restoring biodiversity, regulating the local climate and bringing in wildlife. All this requires building and powering infrastructure. Once we finally manage to revitalize the ecosystem, we must pack everything up and move on somewhere else. First, however, we must dismantle and recycle all constructed buildings.
The visuals of Terra Nil are bright, cartoonish and appealing. The audio layer consists of sounds of nature and a peaceful, tranquil soundtrack.

Terra Nil Review: Reclaim the Wasteland At Your Own Pace
Reclaim a barren wasteland from the grips of toxic ruin in Terra Nil. From the temperate river valley to a volcanic glacier, restoring the natural environment has never been more relaxing.
PC Invasion: 8.5 / 10 by Andrew Farrell
Beautiful, complex, and captivating, Terra Nil is a delightful strategy game only held back by a smaller amount of content and some difficult-to-fulfill objectives.
Hardcore Gamer: 4.5 / 5 by Kyle LeClair
Terra Nil is a truly unique sim game that does a fantastic job in showcasing various ways the environment can be affected, with an astonishing level of hard work put into the tools needed to make things better. With simple yet incredibly fun gameplay, striking and gorgeous visuals, and a nice level of challenge that rewards players for properly planning things out without putting them under too much pressure, this is a terrifically wholesome and clever game that's worth checking out.
Nintendo Life: 7 / 10 by Trent Cannon
Despite its technical flaws and short gameplay, we found ourselves unable to put down Terra Nil on Switch. The simple act of rebuilding a broken and polluted world is so satisfying and well-crafted. From the moment you put down your first wind turbine to watching your airship remove any evidence of your hard work, the game gives you a sense of hope for our own climate crisis without needing to explicitly say a word. This is pure relaxation in video game form and is worth picking up, particularly once that promised first patch is rolled out.
