About this game
Post cats, tea sellers and watchmen on the doorsteps and keep the tea garden's simits safe.
In Neighbourhood Watch, pigeons, crows and gulls come down the street wave after wave, after the simits on the tea garden's copper tray. Post cats, tea sellers and watchmen on the doorsteps along the road, upgrade them and after the third level pick one of two branches: Tabby Gang or Ambush Cat, Samovar or Tray Master, Drummer or Lantern. Send the Head Watchman anywhere on the road and blow his long whistle when it gets tight; gulls come through the air where cats cannot reach them, flocks break into three pigeons, and every tenth wave Captain Gull walks in. Every wave you hold earns stars for the workshop, and today's street and waves are the same for everyone.

How to play
- Tap an empty doorstep and post a cat, a tea seller or a watchman; every bird shooed and every wave held pays coins.
- Tap a post to upgrade it; after the third level pick one of two branches, then add mastery stars.
- Gulls fly through the air: cats cannot reach them, tea sellers and watchmen can; a new kind of bird is announced one wave ahead.
- Tap the road and the Head Watchman walks there; the Whistle button freezes the birds near him. When the simits run out, the watch is over.

Tips
- Put your first cat on a doorstep that sees two stretches of the road; the glowing doorstep is just such a spot.
- Gulls arrive in wave 6: before then, post a tea seller or a watchman next to their flight line.
- Call the next wave early when the street is quiet; every second left pays coins.
Questions and answers
Is it free?
Yes, you can play it for free. There are no ads inside the game.
Does everyone defend the same street?
Yes. The street and its waves are chosen every day from the server's date, so everyone meets the same birds that day. Try as often as you like; your best number of waves held counts.
Do the workshop upgrades last?
Yes. Every wave held earns a star, and every 10 waves 5 more. The Sturdy Tray, Piggy Bank, Skilled Hands and Watch Drill you buy with them count in every watch and stay in your save.
