Yard Keeper is a game about defending your garden.

You are the yard keeper. Guerrilla snakes, lawn mowers and pinecone ducks overrun the garden, and your job is to keep it clean.

The garden gnome fights lawn mowers and snakes, golden numbers mark critical hits

How to play?

You walk, and your crossbow aims and fires by itself. Defeated enemies leave XP crystals.

Every level up offers three upgrade cards. Luck can raise a card to a higher rarity.

A run lasts 15 minutes, and the loot you pick up stays yours at the end.

Crystals level you up. After every run you wake up in the shed, your materials go into the chest, and Berta the blacksmith improves your crossbow with them.
