About Lawndle

You click or tap any tile in a straight line from the mower and it drives there, cutting as it goes; every tile costs a step, but turning is free. The catch is the side chute: each cut sprays clippings two tiles to the right, and landing them in a pond costs two steps, as does shoving a ball into a fence or pond. Rocks block the way, and bare patches cost a step but leave nothing to cut.

A new lawn arrives every day, and the share card maps your round in colored squares showing clean passes, repeat passes and penalties. It started as the developer's own mental game while mowing, and it's a tidy, low-stress daily for route planners and anyone who has ever mowed in neat stripes.

What counts as a penalty in Lawndle?
