I wish that there were options other than just thumbs up or thumbs down. This game falls somewhere between the two. It's not a bad game, but it does have some issues that keep from making it a good game.
First a warning to anyone who might have hand issues like myself, this game is not friendly to us. I could only play for short periods of time because you have to keep the mouse held down the whole time while cleaning. In another cleaning game (Power Washer Sim), you have the ability to clean by holding down the left mouse button the whole time or you can turn on/off the power washer with the right mouse button. There is no option to do this in this game. It can take a toll on your hand pretty quickly.
I expected to be holding a sponge, brush, or some kind of cloth when you start to clean an item. Instead, you just get a big circle. There's no dot in the middle of the circle to help you know exactly where you are cleaning. You just move this circle around. It's a bit disappointing.
As others have said, it is not a long game. However, it is longer than 21 days as some have said. If you update the table, you will get a second month of work. It's still not a very long game.
The keyboard controls do not seem very coordinated. It seems like they could be closer together. You might be able to go into the settings and rebind them, but I do not think so. As I mentioned earlier, I could only play for short periods of time because of the hand pain this game caused. I would usually take a few days break between playing. I didn't always remember what key did what. I tried going into the settings to remind me of what did what, but there is no information there. I found myself just hitting keys on the keyboard to see what happened before I could return to playing the game. If this information isn't in the settings, my guess is the option to rebind also is not.
On the first day, you get one item to clean. Most of the other days, you get two. On occasion, you will get three. Items are sometimes repeated. None of them are very colorful or exciting, but they aren't necessarily bad either.
When the game starts, you have $0 money in your possession. However, by day three (I think it was), you have to start repaying a loan. What is the loan for? Who knows. How much was the loan amount that you will need to repay? Again, who knows. I do think, though, that the loan was given from a loan shark. If I remember correctly, you have your fist loan payment is for $60 and is due on day three. After that, you need to make payments on your loan every few days. The payments are between $100-$300 each time. You also have to pay for electricity, taxes, and one other thing that is escaping me at the moment. So, don't expect to get rich in this game. You don't make much money on almost all of the items. If you can make $10, you're doing well. There are two items, I think, that you can make a decent amount on, but those are rare.
As I said, it's not a bad game, but, for me, the negative still out-weighed the positives for the game. I didn't get a sense of accomplishment after finishing an item. And, the game has no re-play ability.
I'm sure, though, that the game will be just right for some. I'd recommend getting it on sale, though.
I saw in another review that someone said that this was the developer's first game. I don't know if that is true or not. If it is, I hope that the developer will continue to grow and make more games. I'm sure with more experience, future games will be even better and more fun.
