Upcoming Cozy Minimalist Nature Builder Headed to PC in 2027

A peaceful nature-builder where you dig riverbeds to guide water through tiny desert valleys. Grow a variety of plants and discover all the animals drawn to the new habitats. Complete quests and unlock new contraptions to transform the dry landscape into a lush oasis!


REVIVE THE LAND

Dig riverbeds, spread spring water and make plants grow! 

Different river shapes and water levels create different vegetation. Since digging and filling is free, you can experiment freely and discover at your own pace.

FIND HIDDEN ANIMALS

Your plants will attract a variety of wild animals. 

Some are easier to spot than others, and some only show up in special conditions.

You get a sticker for each new animal to add to your scrapbook, slowly turning it into a personal field guide. Will you find even the rarest animals and fill the entire book?

MASTER TINY CHALLENGES

Water is your only real limitation, so use it well! Connect new springs to reactivate them or upgrade existing ones to carry more water. Unlock simple contraptions to guide water uphill and into new terrain.

Once you're happy with one valley you can move on to the next. The terrain will grow slightly more difficult over time. 

Use water, contraptions, and a deepening understanding of the ecosystem to progress further and earn a high score.

There’s absolutely no time pressure or painstaking resource gathering in Waterful. Just you and your tiny nature diorama. If you like goal-oriented creativity at a gentle, relaxed pace, WATERFUL is the game for you!
