A lot of life ahead.

Lupine, fireweed and ferns rendered with the game’s plant models.

You’ve inherited some land.
Nature’s got a few ideas for it.

Second Growth is a 3D rewilding game. Tear out the old farm, dig a wetland, plant something native. Make a place where life can happen again.

Wildlife finds its own way in. A bird in the new shrubs. A deer at the forest edge. Eventually, a whole ecosystem doing its thing.

You don’t collect animals.
You give them a reason to stay.
Dig a pond Plant a forest Pull some invasives Welcome the wild

Seven landscapes. Different plants, different neighbors.
Same chance to leave it a little wilder.

A salmon creek, a worn-out dairy farm, and a forest waiting at the fence line. Bring the water back and make room for elk, beavers, and birds.

What kind of game is this?

A 3D ecosystem simulation about restoring habitats. You shape land and water, plant natives, manage your budget, and watch wildlife respond. There’s plenty to tend to, and plenty to just sit and watch.

Do I need to install anything?

Nope. It’s free to play right in a modern browser with WebGL support. A bigger screen gives you more room to explore, and touch controls are available too.

Can I come back to my land?

Yes. The game autosaves in your browser on this device. Return using the same browser and website. Private browsing and clearing site data can remove your saves.

How do I get wildlife to move in?

Start with what they need: food, water, shelter, and a route into the landscape. Wildlife arrives when the habitat suits it, raises young, hunts, and moves on when conditions change.

Your browser. Your patch of wild.

Go on.
Get a little muddy.

Let’s grow something

There’s a whole little world waiting for you.
