I Turned a Barren Planet Into a Tropical Paradise - Terra Nil

Terra Nil is an intricate environmental strategy game about transforming a barren wasteland into a thriving, balanced ecosystem. Bring life back to a lifeless world by purifying soil, cleaning oceans, planting trees, and reintroducing wildlife, then leave without a trace. This is the anti-citybuilder I have always dreamed of. I hope you enjoyed this episode of Terra Nil, thanks for watching and liking.

About Terra Nil:
Terra Nil is a game about transforming a barren, lifeless landscape into a thriving, vibrant ecosystem. Turn dead soil into fertile grassland, clean polluted oceans, plant sprawling forests, and create the ideal habitat for animals to call home. Then recycle your buildings and leave no trace that you were there. Reclaim the wasteland.
A reverse city builder
Use advanced eco-technology to purify the soil, creating plains, wetlands, beaches, rainforests, wildflowers, and more-then efficiently recycle everything you've built, leaving the environment pristine for its new animal inhabitants.
Different maps every time
Procedurally generated landscapes mean no two playthroughs of Terra Nil will ever be the same. Plan your build around randomized, challenging, and unpredictable terrain, including snaking rivers, mountains, lowlands, and oceans.
A natural ebb and flow
Each region of Terra Nil progresses through phases, with the ultimate goal being leaving pristine wilderness behind. Levels are not about infinite growth, but rather balancing and nurturing the environment before leaving it in peace.
Experience tranquility
Lush hand-painted environments, relaxing music, and an atmospheric ambient soundscape make Terra Nil a peaceful, meditative experience. When you're done, use Appreciate mode to bask in the natural beauty of the ecosystem you have restored.

Drae pumps out Video daily with diversity in them! I really enjoy watching him! The stupid mistakes and his carelessness makes it unique and really amusing to watch. I started watching Drae due to IGP and it has been worthy subscribing.

Fynbos(Pronounced more like, "Fein -Bhos" a natural biome in my home province in South Africa. Interesting to see it represented in this game! Also absolutely hilarious hearing Drae try pronounce it XD

[@kimballblack2668]

Yes! This game is absolutely amazing. I’m so addicted to this that it took me one afternoon to 100%

[@Wolven20511]

Loved seeing you okay this. Future advice, get brains done as soon as you can because rains and storms create greenland which you can then use for all the other biomes etc. Also you could have gotten the predator because when you discover a species in an area they appear in all biomes that meet to condition. So the forest by some grassland area had access to deer as prey Would love to see more!!

If I can do one thing in this life it is to teach Drae that the word is “GIST”. “That’s the *GIST* of this game” not “just”

[@davidthompson1453]

Gist. But yes, it drives me nuts when he says that, someone said his pronouncements are because he’s Canadian but gist and just sound nothing alike and I can’t see how any English speaking person could ever mix the 2.

Why is it rated so poorly already on play store lmao looks good tho

[@dhruvamehrotra1975]

Why is everyone doing a video about this? It's the third video I am watching of this game. LOL. Not that I am not going to watch it but it just feels weird.

[@carolinusTG]

Hehe, I tried to keep three creators playthroughs of contraband police separate in my brain. 🙃
