• 10 music boxes to collect

Have fun Cleaners!

The nightmares are getting worse. From twisted spaces to blood-soaked rooms, each scene feels like a descent into madness. It's your job to erase every trace – no matter how disturbing...

A big update is coming your way - available on Steam 24th July 2025. The Challenge Mode “Nightmare” update will contain whole 10 "Nightmare" versions of every currently existing map, featuring new mechanics and even more thrilling gameplay. Completing these special nightmare maps will reward you with unlockable cosmetics – special skins – so there’s plenty of incentive to push through the challenge!

Cleaning up after the mafia was never going to be without consequences. The blood, the bodies, the silence, it all left a mark. In the Nightmare Update Kovalsky is haunted by twisted versions of the crime scenes he once scrubbed clean. Nothing is as it was – and he’ll have to face them all over again.

Think you’ve mastered the art of cleaning? Think again. There’s a new True Cleaner Mode that strips away all the help – no hints, no cleaner’s instinct, no mercy. Just you, the filth, and your tools. It’s the ultimate challenge for those who believe they can handle the job without leaving a single trace.
