Current Events > Can't stop playing Power Wash Simulator

(+) Yeah! (+)

Never thought Id get addicted to this game, let alone try it..I needs me perfect clean lines!

Anybody a fan?

The game is way better than pretty much anybody thinks it will be before they actually play it.

The strange variation of DLC pulled me in, never expected it to be this fun.

Mini golf course is my hardest challenge so far, so many nooks and crannies

I need to go back to that game, there's a bunch of new maps.

I wonder if the cleaning simulator genre is a sociological experiment to get kids excited about cleaning, making them wanting to become a custodial later in life?

Tomb Raider and Midgar are free..SpongeBob, Back to the Future and Warhammer 40,000 are $8/ea

I love it. I typically put on something from Apple Music to use as the background music. It's the perfect game for that since there's nothing to worry about music wise and AM doesn't overpower the sound effects or anything. It's a very great game for relaxing.

The only problem with it is that the thresholds for completion are bunk. Dont fucking clear the roof when I still have a massive chunk left, but then make me take ten minutes to search for the one dirty atom on a single grain of rice.

Nah, it just gives that dopamine hit a lot of people get from "oddly satisfying" type videos. I worked for the city for a summer and got to use a sandblaster. Watching the paint come off and leaving the bare metal behind triggered something in my brain where it was so relaxing and fun to do.

The trick is to be very VERY thorough and wash that grain of rice so the backtrack doesnt happen..at least for me anyways

Recently found out about highlighting a task on the list will at least show you what section of the map you have to do, has helped a ton

Yeah, I played it more than I thought. I downloaded it just for the FF7 map out of curiosity, then ended up playing four stages of the main game.

Have you tried Viscera Cleanup Detail? Came out many years ago, each level is generally based on some horror or sci-fi movie trope (like cleaning up a bunch of slaughtered Marines fighting an alien on a space station or cleaning up a house on Halloween where someone slashed up the residents).

Also kind of satisfying but very frustrating at times.

I think I spent 15 minutes trying to find the last grains on the last FF7 map, so many sections that you had to wash from a "strange direction" to get them.

Game became insufferable later on playing on the PS5. It just completely hitches and stutters whenever the game autosaved which is like every 15 seconds

That's kinda how I feel about it too, but otherwise the game is oddly addicting.

I made the first post about this on CE back in the day, when it was launched.

~It was kinda tongue in cheek humor, but I'm glad it's actually cool.
