SIMBOG
Ecosystem Simulator
SIMBOG is a browser-based ecosystem simulation where you experiment with biodiversity and species balance. Tune environmental systems like water, nutrients, and weather to see how the habitat responds. Every placement changes ecological interactions, creating new outcomes as the simulation evolves.

How To Play
Choose a tool, paint the world, and watch the balance shift.
1. Plant sundews, pitchers, and flytraps where they can survive.
2. Pan and zoom to inspect moisture, nutrients, and depth.
3. Adapt to weather changes and keep your bog healthy.
4. Watch capture efficiency and uncaught pressure as insects shift.
What Drives Outcomes
Every outcome is a mix of core environmental signals.
Water Depth shapes moisture and plant stress.
Nutrients fuel insect density and plant growth.
Weather shifts moisture, sunlight, and spawn rates.
Placement sets capture efficiency and biodiversity.
Plant Tools
Each plant prefers a different microclimate.
Sundew likes damp peat near shallow water edges.
Pitcher prefers wetter ground with insects nearby.
Flytrap needs damp soil without deep water.
System Signals
These signals drive how the bog evolves.
Water Depth shapes moisture and plant stress.
Nutrients fuel insect density and growth.
Weather shifts moisture, sunlight, and spawn rates.
Utility Tools
Inspect, tune, and keep the system stable.
Inspect reads tile stats and plant health.
Speed lets you time‑lapse or slow‑study.
Save stores progress in your browser.

Examples of Play
Edge Bloom
Find water edges and plant sundews along the rim to spike gnat capture.
Storm Surge
During storms, rely on pitchers to stabilize capture rate as flies spike.
Dry Reset
During drought, relocate flytraps to keep health from dropping.
Balanced Loop
Rotate plant types and monitor moisture to keep biodiversity high.
