Written walkthrough

Plant trees and grass on the map, then draw a path through them. This is the Garden Path card in the Learn tab.

1. Open Scenery

Open World, then tap Scenery on the card. Its first row starts on Foliage.

2. Scatter some green

Enable Trees or Grass (Flowers, Rocks, Reeds, Sunflowers, Bamboo, Cactus, Dead trees, Mushrooms, Boulders, Pebbles and Leaves work the same way), then tap or drag on the map. Plants grow in the squares you color. Amount sets how many grow: A few, Some, or Lots. Lay sets Scatter or Rows (Rows for an orchard).

3. Pick a mood

Mood colors what you plant: Fresh, Autumn, or Creepy. Switch it, then scatter more. One scene can hold more than one mood.

4. Draw the path

Switch the first row to Roads, tap Path, then drag on the map. Sidewalk, Street, Sand, and Stone draw the same way, and More ▸ makes a path from any ground or pattern. Stream draws water, with a current in the direction you dragged. While Stream is armed, Width sets Narrow or Wide, and Banks sets Flat or Sloped.

5. Raise a hill

Tap Land , select Hills, then tap the map beside your path. A hill is placed there.

6. Take it over the hills

Go back to Scenery › Roads, pick one under On land, then draw a path across the hill. Where the path meets raised land, the On land switch decides: On top draws the path over the hill, Sunken sets it into the hill, Cut down cuts the hill down to the ground. Under On top and Sunken, Over hills sets how a road runs across hills: Off follows the land, Cut runs straight between the road’s two ends, and Grade climbs at most one level a square.

Add rocks alongside the path, a lamp at the bend, or a fig walking it.
