The Tree

The Tree is a strategy game about restoring forests after fires or deforestation. You plant trees and auxiliary forest objects on floating islands high in the sky, aiming to clear each island of burnt or cut forest objects. Its minimalist design and peaceful atmosphere set the game in a quiet world.

Plant and restore

At the start of a game, you receive a line of five randomly generated cards. You use one to plant a tree or an auxiliary forest object on the island, then a new card is added to the line. Each tree clears burnt or cut forest objects from the area around it as it grows, and auxiliary objects can expand a tree’s area.

Planting trees and auxiliary objects uses nature energy. You can recover energy by adding three auxiliary forest objects to a tree, so you need to manage your supply and pair trees with suitable objects as you restore the island.

Islands and forests

The game features floating islands of different sizes and designs, with temperate, boreal and tropical forest settings. Burnt or cut forest objects and planting points are procedurally generated, providing replay value. Puzzle mechanics allow for different strategies, alongside relaxing gameplay and landscapes.
