The fastest way to clean, and earn more
Three things decide how fast a run goes: what you upgrade first, which vents you use, and never cleaning the same leaves twice. Every zone you finish also raises your cash boost, so the run speeds up as it goes.
Early in a run
- Buy Hold as soon as you can, so you keep collecting without clicking every leaf. Fleexi, 3:23
- Unlock the vents near you. Some are free, some cost a little. Mykey Blox, 3:27
- Grab coloured leaves first. Red and rainbow ones are worth more than plain ones. ViewSIM, 4:11
- Save for the leaf blower. It is much faster than the rake. ViewSIM, 2:49
Use the best vent you can reach
Vents further into the map pay more for each leaf. One player went from 1 cent a leaf at the first vents to 2 cents at the vent by the pool, so do not drag leaves across the map to a worse vent. ViewSIM, 5:43 ViewSIM, 12:20
Your cash boost keeps growing
Every zone you finish raises your cash boost, and some zones raise it more than others. In one run the Front Yard took it to +30% and the Court, finished right after, to +50%. ViewSIM, 9:12 ViewSIM, 9:28
By the end of the Basement it reads +110%. Two different players saw exactly that. ViewSIM, 15:25 Gamer Chad, 2:06
When a zone will not reach 100%
- Close the doors. Leaves blow through open doors into rooms you already cleaned. ViewSIM, 13:46
- Check the corners. The leaf blower cannot push leaves out of a corner; pick those up by hand. ViewSIM, 7:26
- Almost there? At 99% the game collects the last leaves for you. ViewSIM, 9:35
Going for speed
Harder difficulties give you less time but more gems: Impossible gives you 20 minutes and 2.5× gems. Baysic, 0:44
Lobby upgrades stay between runs. One player fills up bag size, walk speed and cash in the lobby before starting a map. Bax, 0:43
