This game was the biggest surprise of all of them. I was looking for it to be kindof like viscera cleanup but damn, it is so good, so much better in every way.
Im gonna start with the story. Story is actually extremely good and i did not experience getting captivated like this since i was pretty much a child. It is extremely simple but its storytelling is captivating and just great.
Places to clean are also so fun, you have to mop blood, find and clean bodies, many maps have puzzles to access certain areas, which, im not fan of puzzles in these games but they were fine enough, although some were kindof frustrating.
It really just is captivating to clean those places, get water, clean your mop, put away bodies, throw out trash and the trashbags. It is simple yet exremely effective gameplay loop that is just so much fun. You are gonna spend several hours in many levels. Only the main campaign took me around 18 hours to complete, and there are still many extra levels i didnt play, different modes, etcetera. Each level also has hidden areas and secrets which are super cool, and i have no idea how to even find some of them because i searched each level through head to toe, and sometimes i still somehow miss like 3 secret rooms. There is also captivating upgrade system and i like the lobby being your house that you walk around instead of just uggo screen. Now for things i didnt like: Some of the cleaning is ultra tedious when you already clean level by 99% and finding last single small piece of trash that can be a single bullet casing in like 4 cluttered rooms can be extremely frustrating. Another thing i just hate games in general are pickups and achievements for them - this is my purely subjective opinion, but i really just hate pickups
i dont need to be searching every level for 10 hours to find a cassette and a cd just so i can get arbitrary achievement, but as i said, thats just my subjective opinion and does not reflect on the quality of the game whatsoever. My last gripe and perhaps the biggest one that actually decreased enjoyment a bit are bugs. The bugs are not massive or game ruining or anything, but in this game you have cleaner vision - stuff that highlights stuff that is still dirty, or furniture that is out of place that you need to put back. And in many levels, it is somewhat broken and stuff that is cleaned and just part of the level you dont need to interact with will be highlighted, which made me few times run around the level for like 30 minutes trying to figure out where to put this thing, and only after i gave up and found a tutorial, i found out that the game just has those bugs, it does not belong absolutely anywhere, i can just leave it, leave the level and get 100%. And MANY levels have this problem, eventually you kindof figure out like ´´oh! this is propably a bug! better search it up to be sure´´ and be on your way, but it is the only thing i would say made me not enjoy the game as much as i would otherwise. It is still absolutely amazing game, and a massive surprise of just how high in quality it is, i expected a slop little viscera type game that is gonna be fun for few hours, and i got extremely captivating game with amazing story that i would not be surprised if it was made by like a triple A studio, and while it has some issues they are small and far between that i would 100% still recommend this game, even if you got just few levels out of it and then got bored it would be worth it. I got little bored of it after 20 hours, but im definitely planning on returning to it later, and i can see that i could still more than double that playtime. It also has dlc on its way, and after i play that one day, and i actually fully finish the game, i will update this review.
