7 years after its launch on Steam, Plug in Digital and Draw Distance announced that their action-stealth game, Serial Cleaner, will soon be available on mobile platforms. Slated for release in Early 2025, the upcoming mobile version is already open for pre-orders on the App Store and Google Play.
Set in 1970s America, Serial Cleaner is a story-driven, fast-paced stealth slash action game where players take on the role of a professional crime scene cleaner. Sort of like The Wolf from Pulp Fiction.
The job involves disposing of bodies, cleaning up bloodstains, and hiding incriminating evidence, all while avoiding detection by law enforcement. A skilled cleaner must operate with precision, ensuring every trace of evidence is erased before escaping unseen.
Players experience dynamic, real-time changes to the crime scene as they clean. Bloodstains can disappear and evidence can be tampered with. These modifications heighten the tension as police adapt their surveillance, increasing the challenge. For added replay value, the game also utilizes real-world data to modify levels based on the player’s local time of day, adding a layer of personalization.
In addition to its core mechanics, Serial Cleaner offers a full story-driven campaign and extra challenge modes, providing an engaging and varied gameplay experience. The game’s visual style draws heavily from 1970s pop culture, featuring bold, saturated colors and minimalist designs that evoke a sense of nostalgia. Its funky, jazz-inspired soundtrack perfectly complements the era as well, adding immersion to its tense gameplay.
Serial Cleaner currently stands at a ‘Very Positive’ rating on Steam from over one thousand users. Players praised its quirky attempt at a game about cleaning up dead bodies. Some players also found its positioning clunky, making stealth encounters frustrating.
It currently has a Playscore of 7.7 on PC, 7.8 for PlayStation 4 and 8.1 for Xbox One.
Pre-orders are available now for players eager to step into the role of a stealthy cleaner navigating a world of crime and chaos.
