Saw this discussion on r/ecology regarding an ecology based game! This one is beautiful and fun and is on steam (pc) and Netflix(?)!

I love the theme for it, but was expecting an actual city builder, as advertised in the description. Instead, it’s a pretty boring puzzle game with pretty graphics, very unrelated to something like Cities Skylines. I am hoping something like this with more in depth management comes up in the future.
I do like ‘cozy’ building games like Townscaper and Dorfromantik but they aren’t advertised as city builders, and the puzzle elements in Dorfromantik don’t get in the way of building pretty stuff as much as in Terra Nil.
I just purchased it for my Mac yesterday. Hopefully I will get some time to play it tomorrow.
That teaser video on the website is epic beyond words
For anyone confused about the Netflix bit. If you’re subscribed to Netflix, they offer a bunch of free mobile games that you can download and play. This works pretty similar to Apple Arcade. If you log into Netflix on your phone you should see a row of games that you can play.
Nice. Thanks. Just installed it there and will give it a whirl later on.
Update: it is fantastic. Very soothing little game
Played it back in March on Netflix when it came out. It’s a good game! The gimmick of having to take down all your buildings to finish each map is so satisfying and cathartic.
It’s on GOG too!

This! Cannot stress how important buying games DRM free is!
This is a great game! It consumed me until I finished it and it has such great vibes. Not a long or replay able game but oodles of fun while it lasts.
