Yup, you’ll need to click on the irrigation icon. It shows up on level 4 I believe.

As for cheating, I don’t know if those are bots or real people
Maybe the high-score earners should post a video…

David,

Milpa is addicting and I’ve unleashed it on my two boys, although my wife has resisted, so far.

In the help/info section, I read the little blurb about the ‘irrigation’.
It “increases crops and stalls pests”.
But do I need to do anything differently when it shows up on the screen? I’m wondering if there is some way to use it to eek out a few extra points or something.

Thanks for sharing the game. There are too few folks in this world who have your sense of and commitment to Usability.

We’ve all been wondering what the high score is w/o cheating. Any ideas?
–Erik
