Grounds Crew

Someone's gotta do it. Might as well be a robot.

Grounds Crew is a relaxing grounds-keeping game about the quiet joy of a job done properly. Pick a job off the board, roll out of the charging dock and leave the place looking better than you found it.

Four machines, four kinds of satisfying

• Robot mower: steer a little robot around flower beds, benches and hedges, and lay down crisp mowing stripes as you go. The edge trimmer takes care of the bits along fences and walls.

• Tractor: take a big gang mower out across golf courses, racecourses, airfields and cricket grounds, and cut fairways in long, clean passes.

• Leaf blower: herd swirling autumn leaves across the lawn and into the pile.

• Snow blower: chew through fresh snow and throw it clear of paths, platforms and market squares.

80 jobs, every season

Back gardens, a village churchyard, a film backlot, a seaside pier, a skate park, a solar farm, a castle and its ruins, a racetrack and a nine-hole golf course. Familiar places come back through the year: the park on the Fourth of July, the churchyard at Halloween, the market green at Christmas, the egg hunt at Easter.

Do it well, then do it better

• Clear the job, then head home to the dock to finish.

• Beat the par time on every job.

• Watch an overhead replay of your best run, and see exactly where you went.

• Earn 20 achievements.

Hats. Obviously.

Every so often there's a hat hidden somewhere out on the grass. Find it, and your machine can wear it. Collect them all in the wardrobe.

Made to unwind

No timers you can fail and no one shouting at you. Drive at your own pace, with keyboard or controller.
