Longleaf Valley, Treesplease’s debut release, has helped plant over two million real-world trees

  • Treesplease have announced that the initiative spurred by their debut release Longleaf Valley has borne fruit
  • Players have helped plant over two-million real-world trees!
  • There’s also new in-game content inspired by Veganuary to enjoy!

On many occasions when we discuss the idea of gaming for a positive impact, the specifics of how this positivity is achieved are seldom disclosed. However, today’s news is an exception, as Treesplease, the team behind their inaugural release Longleaf Valley, have revealed that their initiative has successfully resulted in over two million real-world trees being planted.

Through their collaboration with the Eden Reforestation Project, Treesplease successfully achieved this feat, and it’s said that the carbon dioxide offset from this work amounts to approximately 42,000 tonnes! As for the developer, they are launching a fresh initiative in 2025, modeled after the Veganuary event, drawing inspiration from the official Veganuary Cookbook.

Regardless if you’re a vegan, exploring the concept or simply skeptical, you won’t want to miss this event as it offers an opportunity to test fresh in-game content tied to New Year’s resolutions, and the potential to earn some cute baby animal prizes.


Go green

2024 turned out to be an exceptionally successful year for Treesplease, with their CEO and founder Laura Carter receiving the Global Gaming Citizen award at the 2024 Game Awards for her contributions towards climate action. To top it off, Longleaf Valley, one of their games, also won the Best Purpose Driven Game accolade at the Playing of the Planet Awards in the same year!

Absolutely, I’d express it like this: It’s quite clear that Treesplease has struck gold with their “Play it, Plant It” concept. I believe many gamers appreciate the chance to support a worthy cause while still having fun. And by successfully offering this opportunity, Treesplease has made a substantial positive impact.

Instead of identifying a specific cause, the forthcoming event known as Communite emphasizes themes related to community and enhancement. Therefore, it might be intriguing to explore the insights shared by Jupiter Hadley in their sneak peek of Communite.
