It’s the season for steam’s summer sale, so here’s some solarpunk-y games I’ve been eyeing, for anyone who’s looking for something new to try this summer! (I haven’t played most of these, they are just things that I’ve seen around that give me solarpunk vibes.)

• Terra Nil : an intricate environmental strategy game about transforming a barren wasteland into a thriving, balanced ecosystem.
• Pan’orama : a relaxing puzzle simulation game that allows you to create breathtaking landscapes using different types of tiles.
• Summer in Mara : a summer adventure with farming, crafting, and exploring mechanics set in an alien tropical archipelago.
• No Place Like Home : a cute and relaxing farm sim where you restore the environment around you.
• Cloud Gardens : a chill game about using plants to overgrow abandoned wasteland dioramas.
• Station to Station : a minimalist & relaxing game about building railway connections across a beautiful landscape.

Bonus, Games in Early Access:
