Critic Reviews for Terra Nil
A small but satisfying strategy puzzler that comes, does its job and leaves without fuss.
The reverse city builder is trickier than it appears, but utterly committed to its environmental vision, taking the genre - and every level - to new places.
What is on offer at release is worthwhile, both in gameplay and message. In focusing on environmental expansion instead of human expansion, Terra Nil delivers something wholly unique. While the peaceful nature and serene tone are sometimes interrupted by uneven mechanics, Terra Nil is a worthwhile experience for those looking for a new twist on the sim genre.
Impressive efforts with a few noticeable problems holding them back. Won't astound everyone, but is worth your time and cash.
Terra Nil is not what you might expect from a typical strategy game. There are no opponents to face, no incessant clicking, and no steep learning curve. It is a game that takes the concepts found in many city-building games and turns them on their head, emphasizing sustainability and conservation rather than endless expansion or usurpation of resources. While the game's mechanics didn’t always work as expected, what few issues I encountered did little to take away from an otherwise enjoyable and meditative experience.
More of an elaborated puzzle game than a strategy game, Terra Nil is an interesting experience that lasts a little too little.

The rewarding environmental restoration game plays like a puzzle and is satisfyingly simple
Terra Nil is not and does not try to be a triple A title with an infinite amount of content that will keep us glued to the screen for months and months; Instead, I found it a product that conveys a very clear message while relaxing us with its beauty-oriented style.
