I finished the game. Now what?

I'm not much of an Achievement Hunter, so I'm not sure what to do now that I've finished the game (including the bonus levels).

I turned on Zen Mode thinking it was like a Creative Mode, but that doesn't appear to be the case.

Will there be some kind of Endless Mode in a future Free Update? I thought I would get more out of this game after completing the main campaign, but it was kind of short lived.

I've only played the demo, but I was curious to know if you can do a "completionist" run in this game. A logbook to be filled up, list of creatures restored, that kind of thing.

Technically, I did that during the Bonus Levels... so,yeah, I 100% the log book and optional goals, as well as developed environmental conditions for all six animals per area. (The Polluted Fjord was the only one that gave me a headache because of how it starts.)

You can definitely achieve all climate conditions and animal discoveries on your first run through of the four continents. However, you'll have to play through the second map of each continent in order to 100% each continent, so while you certainly can "one-shot" the maps, you don't have to. Might be a good completionist challenge.

the reason i even bothered with this game is not to "100% each continent". also speaking of "each continent" while there are actually just 4 meager maps is laughable.
the demo promissed a replayability of the game in a relaxed manner, where i can unwind & restore dead landscape back to life.
now it revealed itself as a strategic puzzler, with bad UI design, jumping through hoops in a handful of narrowly set maps for no reason. & indeed just for a "completionist challenge" is the game way overpriced, half the price would be already quite expensive, i still would have waited for a discount.
what a disappointment this game is, incredible.

More like 4 continents but endless versions of maps. Each map is generated differently. Sure, the goal is the same but no 2 map of the same continent will look the same, posing new challenges from time to time. Especially if you want to 100% restore all animals as well. Then you got to think ahead and try to make that happen on each map, which is not always possible without some extra thinking.

i played the demo for over 30 hours, i know how this game works. but i didn't expect the final product a more complicated beautificated version x 4. & yeah, "extra thinking" means it's a puzzler, there are tons of puzzle games i don't play, don't need another puzzle game.
