Tools and upgrades
TipsIn short
Earn cash from every job and put it toward upgrading the tools you use most.
The game gives you a full toolkit: mower, trimmer, pressure washer, ride-on, axe, jackhammer, roller, and more. Each tool handles a different kind of yard work. As you complete jobs you earn cash, and that cash goes toward leveling tools up. You can also customize how tools look and even mow patterns directly into the lawn.
Tips worth knowing
- Spend cash on upgrades — leveling a tool up increases how efficiently it works.
- Customize freely — tool appearance and mow patterns can both be changed to suit your style.
- Look for hidden Finds — the game includes collectible hidden items and a secret to track down.

Common questions
FAQCan I play alone?
Yes, every stage can be completed solo. The one exception is the Full Crew badge, which requires a job to be finished with all four crew slots filled, so you will need three other players for that specific badge.
How do I upgrade my tools?
Complete jobs to earn cash, then spend that cash to level your tools up.
How do I get the black squirrel?
Go into hard mode, feed and tame the squirrel that raids the Kitchen Garden, and then finish hard mode with that squirrel as your pet. The black squirrel is the reward for doing exactly that.
Can I customize how I mow?
Yes. Both your tools and the mow patterns you cut into the lawn can be customized.
