## What is Picket Zen?

Build a fence one satisfying board at a time.

Picket Zen turns the craft of fence building into a tactile iPhone game. Read the customer’s order, inspect the yard, choose the right materials, and complete every stage of the job—from the first corner to the final coat of stain.

BUILD A 60-JOB CAREER
Take on increasingly ambitious yards, tighter quality targets, gates, varied materials, and new tools. Match the order, work cleanly, and beat par to earn three stars.

DO THE WORK
Drag each picket into position, then secure it with a hammer, nail gun, or drill. Install and test gates. Brush or spray six different finishes across the completed fence.

DESIGN IN FREESTYLE
Draw your own fence line, select the lumber, height, picket shape, fastening method, ground, gate, and finish, then watch the full build take shape in 3D.

CHASE A BETTER BUILD
Replay any unlocked job to improve its best star rating, share a finished-fence card, and compare high scores on the optional Game Center leaderboard.
