Update: Garden Defense is now open in your neighborhood!
Log into JumpStart to check it out.
So, do you remember that top secret game we mentioned last week, the one that our pal ZuZu was going to bring? Well she decided that it was time to let you in on the secret! After all, she’ll need you and your Jumpee to keep the gardens growing when Garden Defense arrives to JumpStart.
With a number of pesky parasites on the move around your garden, our resident expert in all things green decided to take it upon herself to find a way to stop them from ruining all of the glorious little greenies. And that’s where you come in! Since we’re all about working together here in JumpStart, we thought we’d trust you Jumpeez with the task of controlling the growing bug population.
Think you have what it takes to blast the bugs and level up in Garden Defense? Then head over to your neighborhood when Garden Defense arrives to the game. All you’ll need to do is look out for the trail of crawling critters in your neighborhood. When the game is ready, you can follow them directly to your garden where ZuZu will be waiting to explain the rest!

Hiya! What’s the object of the game? Can you tell me more?
Hi, Sadie the Cat! The object of the game will be to keep your garden safe from attacking pests. It’s a game that will put your strategy and critical thinking skills to the test. We’ll be posting more information about the game and how it’s played once it arrives to JumpStart. That way you and the rest of our jumpee pals get some time to try it out. Anyways, thanks for your interest in Garden Defense! We can’t wait to see what you think of the game.
Hi,
Recently I bought a new window for my home in JS but when I placed it there my old windows (purchased earlier) disappeared from my home inventory. Will they come back to me?
Also I bought a second piece of the same wallpaper and this didn’t show up either.
Your help is appreciated and just letting you know that I love playing JS.
Hi, Katee – When something like this happens, the first thing you want to try is clearing your caches by following the simple instructions listed here: http://www.jumpstart.com/CustomerCare/FAQ.aspx#unity-reinstall . If there’s too much information stored in your cache it can cause errors like this in the game. Please let us know if the problem persists! Thanks
When I played this game its was fun and a blast but when i got the plants and puts them in my Garden, the next day my plants got stolen! I now don’t want to put stuff in my garden.. What should i do?
Hi, Lizzy R. – Sorry for the confusion! Once Garden Defense entered the game, we moved your garden over to your neighborhood FunZone area. The decorations you put in and seeds you planted should still be in your inventory. That way you can replant them in your new gardening area. They should remain in your garden even if you begin to switch out your FunZones. Give this a try and let us know if you have nay other questions. Thanks for playing!
UUH i’m on here and i don’tknow where to start.
