Helpers are characters that are available to assist with some of the jobs that keeping a garden entails. You can have up to five helpers active in your garden at once.
- Helpers can be hired at Arfur's Inn. Select the type of helper you would like to hire, and place the contract in the garden. Once the helper arrives, it will pick up the contract and start working in the garden.
- Helpers will only work part of the day in the garden. The rest of the time they will go home. To increase the amount of time the Helper spends in the garden, you can purchase a Helper House from Willy Builder.
- Helpers will leave the garden if they become unhappy. Getting stuck in the garden, or being whacked with the shovel do not make a Helper happy. Whacking them with your shovel causes chocolate coins to fall out from the helper.
- Helpers will open gates to get through the garden and may allow pinata to get out.
- Using Helpers is optional, so you can play the game the way that you like.
- Note: The only Pocket Paradise Helper discovered so far is the Sprinkling.
