About the game
You run a cleaning business around Muckingham and nearby towns. Each job gives you a dirty vehicle, building or other large object to wash piece by piece. You switch nozzles, cover stubborn marks with soap and use lifts or an abseiling rig to reach awkward surfaces. Finishing work pays for stronger equipment and opens more jobs. Between visits, you can arrange furniture in your home base and pet the cats.
Up to four players clean together online, while two can use local split-screen. Online campaign progress is shared, so helping a friend also moves your own career forward. You can divide a site into sections or have one person apply soap while another rinses it away. The steady work leaves room for conversation, with little pressure to hurry.
