Nature Matters is a puzzle-adventure game developed by Digital Melody, released in 2020 for iOS and Nintendo Switch. The game follows a small plant spirit who, surrounded by an encroaching city and cut off from her caretaker, must seek out the young boy responsible for her wellbeing. He has become entangled in his own troubles, and convincing him to return to her care forms the emotional core of the narrative, which touches on themes of friendship, sacrifice, and redemption. Across various landscapes scarred by human neglect, players solve logic puzzles to restore color and vegetation to the environment. The game pairs its puzzle mechanics with atmospheric music and a distinctive visual style intended to reinforce its environmental message. Digital Melody has described the project as a deliberate effort to foster awareness of ecological harm caused by human indifference to the natural world.
