Our take on Let There Be Life
Instead of treating nature as scenery around conventional action or puzzle goals, the game makes tree design and light management the central activity. Growth is shaped through branching choices, while shade becomes a constraint that can damage plants below and alter how each level is approached.
What is Let There Be Life?
Build trees across 34 levels in a calm watercolor environment.
Adding leaves raises tree health, while excessive shade can kill plants growing on the ground below. Extending branches farther allows new leaves to add more health. Mushrooms benefit from shaded areas, and a fully grown mushroom restores light around nearby plants. Tree growth can follow individual designs, with creativity shaping each level. Wildlife appears throughout the game and can be unlocked and interacted with. The central activity combines branching choices, plant protection, and environmental balance rather than a fixed tree layout. The game focuses on relaxed play and presents its tree-building challenges through a sequence of levels.
