Press release:
The Austin-based (Texas, the US) indie games publisher Devolver Digital and Cape Town-based (South Africa) indie games developer Free Lives, are today very delighted and thrilled to announce that their ecological reverse city-builder “Terra Nil” is coming to PC via Steam this Spring (2023).

Terra Nil is an eco-conscious strategy game about turning a barren, lifeless wasteland into a vibrant, thriving ecosystem. Use advanced technology to purify soil, clean oceans, plant trees, and reintroduce wildlife—then recycle everything you’ve built and leave without a trace.

Playing Terra Nil is a chill, meditative, and deeply satisfying experience—which you can see for yourself in this brand new gameplay trailer.

Enjoy the peaceful ambient sounds of nature, lush hand-painted art, tactile animations, and a dreamy reactive soundtrack as you reclaim the wasteland and bring life back to a variety of environmentally distinct biomes. Saving the planet has never been so relaxing.

About Free Lives:
Free Lives are a team of teenage anthropomorphic turtles, led by their anthropomorphic beard wielding rat sensei in honing and perfecting their art of game jam jitsu to battle bills, pants, petty criminals, evil overlords and alien invaders. They met in the storm sewers of Cape Town, where they bonded over a love for dank accommodations, consuming copious amounts of pizza and remaining isolated from society-at-large.
