Idle Lawnmower Advanced Game Review

Idle Lawnmower Advanced Game Background

Idle Lawnmower Advanced is a retro-styled 2D idle game featuring a boy hired to mow a public lawn. Help the boy make bank by investing in both his lawnmower and the growth of the lawn itself.

This game was developed by MarketJS.

How to Play Idle Lawnmower Advanced

To select, left click with your mouse or tap on the touchscreen with your fingers. On the welcome screen, select the play button at the center to begin.

The boy mowing the lawn automatically moves by himself. To help him out, increase the following parameters using the money he earned:

• The sharpness of his blade
• The speed of the mower
• The growth rate of the grass
• The density of the grass
• The variation within the grass

You can upgrade these by selecting their respective buttons on the bottom row. The button on the bottom right corner lets you upgrade these parameters in increments of 1, 10, or the most you can afford at once.

The game is endless. Keep playing for as long as you want. Every so often, the mower boy would say a stupid mower-related joke.

Basic Gameplay Advice

The key to mastering this game is to strike a balance between how much the grass grows and how fast the mower works. If the mower works too fast, the grass won’t grow back fast enough. Meanwhile, if the grass grows too fast or the mower works too slow, the lawn becomes too overgrown. Upgrade as needed to keep the game balanced.

Every so often, you’ll get a temporary bonus for any of the parameters that lasts for 60 seconds. To activate it, select its button on the right center edge of the screen. Be careful, as the game might go out of balance in the time that the bonus is active.

On occasion, individuals ranging from criminals to lost persons will appear on the lawn. Select them to find out what you need to do. Each time you perform the required action, you will receive a small sum of money.

After you earn enough cash (around or above 400,000 in lifetime earnings), you will receive an offer from the top hat agent. He will offer a significant increase in your profit rate in exchange for starting over from scratch in a new lawn. The higher your profit is, the more investors will attempt to join. You can also opt to pass if you want to wait for the top hat agent to bring in more investors.

Advanced Playing Tips & Strategy

The game helpfully warns you when you’re going out of balance. Whenever this happens, see if you can upgrade parameters in bulk to make quick, visible adjustments. Be careful not to over-adjust.

The game continues to run even when you’re not playing. You can close the game and reload it after a few minutes to earn more cash with less effort. You can then use your extra cash to make adjustments to your parameters and keep the lawn in balance.

Educational Aspects

This game highlights the need to strike the appropriate balance between various parameters to maintain equilibrium. Players can struggle to keep things in check if they upgrade one parameter at the expense of the others. The game also teaches the value of patience, as it takes time for players to earn enough money to make significant upgrades.

Player Age Recommendations

This game is suited for players school-aged and above. We recommend this game mostly for older audiences who like idle-tap tycoon games. Younger players might find it boring and slow-paced.
