Terra Nil has more than 5,900 user reviews on Steam as of press time. Steam has categorized these reviews as "Very Positive."
"Such a relaxing game with such a powerfull message," user Brand2899 said in a Steam review. "Also, part of their donations is going to real-life conservation efforts, which I think is very admiring."
"A very careful thumbs up," user EatYourSoup said in a separate review. "The game is beautiful, and it gets right the idea of influencing ecosystems with small adjustments, and that nature is about equilibria that constantly shift."
"However, it does prescribe to the dangerously naive idea that (a) humans just need to roll through with some big magic machines to restore ecosystems and then (b) have to get out because they are not part of nature," EatYourSoup added.
