About This Game

Come back to an overgrown place and put it right.

You've been away longer than you meant to be. The drive is green through every crack, the path to the door has vanished, and something is growing out of the shed slab. Nobody's coming to help with it. A short whole afternoon ahead of you.

How it works

  • Hold to pull. Let go too early or look away and the root snaps.

  • Three types of weeds: dandelions, thistles, and crabgrass.

  • Fill your sack, walk it to the shed, sell what you've pulled. Buy better tools so you can get the work done faster.

  • When the last weed is out, the sun drops. Walk the property you just cleared, for as long as you like.

What this isn't

No timers. No fail state. Nothing chasing you. About an hour or less of quiet work with a clear beginning and a clear end. A complete afternoon and not a hundred hours.
