01 / THE GUIDE
Core Gameplay
The primary task is to move leaves using a rake, a leaf blower, or simply your hands, each offering a distinct method of clearing space.
As you work, the yard gradually becomes less cluttered, providing visual feedback that the environment is responding to your effort.
- Try the rake for precise removal of small piles, and switch to the blower when larger areas need quick clearing.
- Observe how each tool affects the speed of cleanup; mixing them can keep the task feeling varied.

Tool Upgrades
Initially tools work slowly, but the description notes that upgrading them makes the process quick, accelerating yard restoration.
Upgrades are tied to progress, so as you clear more leaves you unlock faster equipment, shifting the pacing from gradual to rapid.
- Monitor how tool speed changes after each upgrade to gauge the impact on your workflow.
- Consider focusing on one tool at a time to see its specific improvement before switching.

All actions are logged in an in‑game journal, giving you a record of how many leaves have been moved and which tasks remain.
Objectives appear as clear goals; completing them advances your progress and contributes toward unlocking achievements.

- Use the journal as a visual motivator to see how much the yard improves over time.
