Map unlock guide

How Map Progress Unlocks New Areas

The documented unlock chains for all three maps — House, Mansion and Gas Station — with the dependencies, the endings behind them, and what to recheck after an update.

Quick answer

What to do first

Clean all the leaves! map unlocks: each map is a dependency chain. The House map runs Frontyard, Shed, Porch and Court into Garage (press the Shed's red button), Rooftop (needs five areas), Backyard, Pool and Maze (need Court plus Rooftop), Farm, and finally the Basement, which requires all ten areas before it. Mansion chains thirteen areas from its four starter zones to a leafless Maze; Gas Station chains ten from Street to the UFO-ending Roof. Clear an area to 100% and the next one opens — that relationship is in the official description, and the specific chains are documented by the community walkthrough published September 3, 2026.

Step by step

Run the check in this order

1
Clear the four starter zones first
Every map opens with four areas unlocked at once: Frontyard, Shed, Porch and Court on House; Front Yard, Porch and both Alleys [A] on Mansion; Street, Bus Stop, Billboard and the Entrance on Gas Station. They fund the Hand upgrades and first tools everything else assumes.
2
Trigger the physical switches
Some unlocks need an action, not a percentage: the House Garage opens when you press the red button inside the Shed (next to the leaf-capacity upgrade), and the Rooftop is reached by the ladder to the right of the Shed once five areas are clear.
3
Follow the mid-chain dependencies
House: Rooftop needs Frontyard, Garage, Porch, Shed and Court; Backyard, Pool and Maze need Court plus Rooftop; Farm needs those three cleared. Mansion: Tennis Court and Pool need the four starters, Relaxation Court needs the Pool, and Backyard, both Alleys [B] and the Statues need Relaxation Court.
4
Finish the chain to the finale
The House Basement requires every other area and hides the Secret Ending behind its two waves. Mansion's final Maze has no leaves — escape it to end the map. Gas Station's Back Lot and Roof open after the Storage Room; clearing the Roof triggers the UFO finale.
5
Match the tool to the newly opened area
Open areas with the documented pick ready: Blower plus Vents for the House mid-chain, Leaf Mower and full Leaf Capacity for Mansion's back half, and the Molotov purchased in the Backyard before any Basement attempt.
6
Recheck chains after every update
Chains change. The documented example: a patch moved the Mansion Duck Bot Part from Relaxation Court to the Tennis Court. After any update, verify the next unlock in-game before trusting a memorized route, and compare against the wiki's dated tables.

If that fails

Stuck-state fixes

An area will not open

Check the physical prerequisites first: the Garage needs the Shed's red button, not a percentage; the Rooftop needs the ladder after five areas are clear; Gas Station's Staff Room and Restroom both need the inside area. Then confirm the required areas actually read 100% — 99% does not unlock anything.

Progress itself is flat

A zero-gain display is a missing-leaf problem, not an unlock problem. Move to the stuck-at-99 diagnostic and sweep the current area's commonly missed spots — corners, under benches, behind Trash Cans, the Rooftop ladder.

Lost inside the Mansion Maze

The final Maze has no leaves and no alternate exit; the walkthrough says getting lost forces a restart of the whole map. Follow the map layout strictly rather than exploring, and treat the Maze as a routing test, not a cleaning one.

Avoid these

Common mistakes

Chasing a percentage threshold that is not there

Unlocks are area-completion gates, not global-percentage thresholds. A global progress readout tells you how much work remains, not what opens next — the area tables do.

Entering the Basement unprepared

The Basement has no Leaf Trash Can and no Vent. Arriving without a Molotov means repeated trips up the stairs; the documented method is to buy the Molotov in the Backyard first, then pile-and-burn.

Assuming the chain is permanent

Patches move things — the Duck Bot part relocation is documented proof. Area labels come from the community, so after an update, verify against fresh documentation instead of memory.

Copying another game's map

Leaf it Alone and other cleaning games have unrelated worlds and unlock systems. Chains documented here apply only to place 92637789841354.

FAQ

Questions players ask next

What unlocks map parts?

Clearing the previous areas to 100%. The official description confirms progress opens new map parts, and the September 3, 2026 walkthrough documents each dependency — including action-based ones like the Shed's red button.

What are the area names?

The community walkthrough names all 34: eleven on House (Frontyard, Shed, Porch, Court, Garage, Rooftop, Backyard, Pool, Maze, Farm, Basement), thirteen on Mansion, ten on Gas Station. The developer publishes no official list, so treat the names as consistent community labels.

Is there a fixed order?

There is a fixed dependency chain per map, but freedom inside it: Backyard, Pool and Maze can be cleared in any order once Court and Rooftop are done. The Basement, the Mansion Maze and the Gas Station Roof are chain-enders that need nearly everything first.

Which map has the Secret Ending?

Only the House map. Clearing all eleven areas opens the Basement, whose two waves gate a sliding gate to the Secret Ending and its badge. The Mansion ends in a Maze escape and the Gas Station in a UFO pickup — neither awards the badge.

Do unlock requirements ever change?

They can. The documented patch that moved the Mansion's Duck Bot Part proves the developer edits map content without patch notes. After each update, recheck the next link in your chain in-game and compare with the wiki's dated area tables.

How can I log a new unlock myself?

Note the visible landmark, the areas at 100% before access changed, and what opened. If it contradicts the published chains, that is exactly the kind of dated observation the sources register wants via the contact page.
