Garfield: Survival of the Fattest Tips and Cheats

Here are the top 10 tips/tricks/cheats you need to know for Garfield: Survival of the Fattest.

1. Clean the Camp

The camp is full of bushes and rocks, not the most comfortable place to sleep on. Cleaning these obstacles will provide you with experience points and more room for new buildings and trees, which will make you advance much faster in the game. More room, more production! You can save some lasagna to buy Dicky. With his help you’ll be able to clean two items at the same time! This is very useful to clean small obstacles that don’t require much time while at the same time be cleaning a big obstacle that takes much longer.

2. Play the Minigames

Repairing the broken buildings will give you access to mini games such as ‘Spider Cave’ that you can play daily. Playing them provides you with a good amount of coins, and if you get a perfect score you will get from one up to three free lasagnas every day. This is why repairing the Crazy Resto and the Dig Site as soon as possible is such a good long-term investment! To gain access to all the mini games you need to unlock more areas of the camp.

3. Craft a Lot of Junk Food!

You know what is the most powerful and yummy food for Garfield? Junk food, of course! Junk food gives much more calories and coins than fruits, so make sure you have plenty of junk food carts in your camp. You can buy junk food carts directly from the shop or craft them in the Factory if you mix the correct ingredients. Have fun trying new recipes to obtain the best junk food carts!

4. Activate the Fiesta Often! Get Free Lasagna!

When Garfield eats a lot of fruit, and more so, a lot of junk food, he gains calories. When you reach a limit you will be able to break the weighing scale, earning a free point of lasagna to spend however you want. Don’t forget to activate the Fiesta as soon as it is available! It is important to do it as soon as possible because once you have obtained the required calories, you will not be able to collect more of them by eating until you activate the Fiesta reward. Junk food items are the best ones to fill the Fiesta bar quickly.

5. Upgrade Your Trees by Watering Them

Garfield is not the biggest fan of fruit (it doesn’t make you very fat), but if you water the trees you can upgrade them. And they will improve their production rate, giving you more experience points and coins available to place new buildings or junk food carts. The benefits of having better trees really adds up in the long run so don’t underestimate their power!

6. Always Pay Attention to the Awards

You should always take a close look at the Awards button at the bottom of the screen. When there is a red ribbon on it, this means that you have not claimed the rewards for an objective you have already completed! Tap on this button and claim your reward. The awards will give you plenty of coins, water and even lasagna to help you progress! If you are smart about which actions to perform first to quickly finish a pending Award you will progress much more quickly in the game!

7. Go Social and Get Lasagna for Free

Make sure you watch the teasers located in the social menu. That way, you can gift yourself with some free lasagna.

8. Get Free Characters!

More characters are unlocked for free as you level up and unlock new areas (which also gives a new building to be repaired). For example Odie at level 5 and Arlene at level 7, but other characters appear later on as well. Keep advancing in the game to bring everyone to the camp!

9. Place All Characters Houses!

They provide strong rewards to advance faster in the game and allow the characters to perform special actions in them. You cannot buy a house without having the character to whom it belongs first.

10. Plan Your Actions Wisely

Pay attention to the different actions you can perform with your characters and how long each action takes. Before going to sleep, make sure your characters start long-term actions and you will receive big rewards when you come back the following day.
