About the Game

In Clean Start, you clean and organize other people’s homes while uncovering heartfelt stories through the objects you find. Piece together each room’s narrative, discover hidden secrets, and experience the satisfaction of tidying up spaces in this cozy puzzle game set in a country whose language you don’t fully understand.

Experience satisfaction from tidying up spaces, without time pressure or stressful game overs. Sink into a highly satisfying activity and let yourself be drawn into a trance of warmth and comfort. Enjoy a relaxing puzzle experience that’s easy to pick up and offers a break from the stresses of everyday life.

While dialogues provide context, the main story of each level is told through the discovery of interesting objects. Players must piece together the story, either to satisfy their curiosity or to help the clients with more than just a dirty apartment.

Create your own cozy space in a rented apartment using items found while cleaning. Your conversations with your employers—and the gifts they give you—will vary depending on what you discover in each level.

Step into the shoes of Lena, an immigrant maid, as she tries to communicate with her clients using a limited understanding of a foreign language. Clean Start is a game inspired by real experiences, highlighting the worries and hopes of immigrant life.

  • Relaxing, cozy and positive atmosphere.

  • Cute dioramas, filled with hundreds of interesting items waiting to be cleaned.
