Description
The best retro game ever is back!
This is a powerful and accurate lawn mowing simulation. Choose from several different machines and 'go get that grass'!
Originally launched as an April fools joke by the magazine Your Sinclair in 1988, it wasn't until two years later that they admitted it was a joke. The game was written by editor Duncan MacDonald and received as one of the best games of the home computer era.
This is a recreation of the original ZX Spectrum version of the game on macOS.
Features:
• Remake of the original 1988 game
• Original 8-bit graphics and sound
• Mow the lawn and avoid getting killed

To the maker of this game.
By itself it seems like an amazing game.
I played it at 10:30 at night and when it's dead silent with this sound it scared me. I loved it. After the death on the third or fourth mowed lawn is there anything else? Or is that part of the April fool's prank that there is nothing. Please tell me I'm eager to play more with hopes there is more to this game.

Thanks for your review! There are ten different endings but that’s it. Good luck!

Thanks!
Advanced?
The graphics are equal to Atari or Intellivision. If you try to select any of the first 5 mowers you get an error stating they are broken. Twice in a row I got a quarter of the way through mowing and was killed? You can't alternate directions like you would if you were actually mowing... I am going to assume when the developer named this "Advanced" they were being sarcastic. Complete garbage.

Thank you for your review. Indeed, the game is from 1988 and as stated in the description, is was an April fools joke game. Everything that's bad about is, is intended. Hope you enjoy many more hours of play!
