Alt. Names:
Sim Earth, SimEarth: Der lebende Planet, シムアース, 模擬地球
SimEarth: The Living Planet is a simulation where the player manages a world across an immense geological and biological timeline. The objective is to develop life from simple origins into a spacefaring civilization.
Management involves a resource called energy, which is finite and must be recovered. This energy fuels the player's interventions, which range from terraforming actions like altering landmasses and triggering seismic events to influencing biological development. The simulation presents persistent challenges to survival, including environmental degradation, conflict, and public health crises.
