Plant real trees with this relaxing forest sandbox launching April 17th! Treeplanter!
Indie developer / sixth-generation farmer Henry Driver has announced the release date for his interactive woodland toybox, Treeplanter, and he will personally plant a real tree for every copy sold! The game will launch on PC/MAC via Steam on April 17th! The game is published by Future Friends Games, who previously released cozy hits SUMMERHOUSE, Tiny Aquarium and Gourdlets.

About the game
Lose yourself in the natural world with Treeplanter, a peaceful interactive woodland designed for lunch breaks and long, lazy evenings. Piece together a tiny grove and watch as birds, plants and animals move in over the changing seasons. A tribute to nature from the creator of the award-winning soil simulator (!) Secrets of Soil.
About the Game:
Welcome to Treeplanter, an interactive woodland that changes with the seasons. Piece together a small grove of trees. Watch as their roots blossom under the soil. Based on what you place and build, an ecosystem of animals, plants and birds will move in, turning your creation into their home!
Treeplanter is created by digital artist Henry Driver, previously known for Secrets of the Soil (‘A Spectacular Underground Cosmos’ - Vice). Each copy of the game sold helps Henry plant trees, wildflowers, meadows and community orchards through partnerships with schools, farms, communities and woodland charities. This means you’ll help restore real-life nature, too!! During development last year, Henry planted 900 trees on farms and schools in Suffolk. We're on track to plant 8000 trees and millions of wildflowers in 2026.
Combining meditation and education, Treeplanter aims to teach players about the interconnected wonders of the natural world, above and below ground.
