It's Literally Just Mowing
Calm down and cut nice lawns
Not all heroes wear capes. Some of them ride mowers! In It’s Literally Just Mowing, you are one such Samaritan.
How it plays: Cruise from one unruly suburban lawn to the next, a lone landscaper riding in to shave—er, save—the day. As either Marv (lover of lazy afternoons) or Maisie (fan of gardening and crime novels), swipe to steer your mower over every patch of overgrown turf.
Why we love it: Whether you prefer orderly rows or chaotic cuts, the mowing life proves wonderfully meditative and surprisingly relaxing. And as you get each yard in order, neighbors will beam with joy. Flowers will pop up in formerly barren garden plots. Nice work!
Don’t miss: Keep trimming and you’ll unearth butterflies and cool new mower parts. Who knows what lies beneath all this greenery?
Meet the creator: Australian indie developer Protostar has released several games since launching in 2014, including Sling Kong and Super Starfish.
