A cozy, tactile game about cleaning old games.
Designed for SteamDeck. Coming soon!
Game cartridges will arrive inside mystery parcels sealed with tape. You’ll peel them open by hand, lifting the flaps, and wrestling with sticky tape to see what’s inside.
Each game has randomised stats, dirty and visual traits, with 108 distinct titles
inspired by classics from the 1980s to early 2000s.
Every cartridge is procedurally dirtied. Some have clean labels but cracked shells. Others are scuffed, drawn on, or covered in adhesive residue. Grime is layered. Dust, ink, discoloration, stickers, and scratches each require a different tool to remove.
Surfaces stretch, smear, and lift as you work. It’s slow, tactile, and satisfying.
There’s no timer and no fail state in this game, but that doesn’t mean it's a shallow experience.
There’s a deep set of interwoven systems which keeps gameplay varied and interesting, all whilst respecting the quiet chill vibes of a cleaning game.
If you’ve ever carefully peeled a sticker, dug through 2nd hand store games for a gem, or reminisced about your old collection, this is for you.
As you restore games, you’ll complete collection-based quests. This might be simple stuff like “collect three puzzle games”, or “two rare platformers”, but you’ll also see more unique things which work with the game’s in-game calendar like “Have 4 sci-fi games on your game shelf on November 7”.
Each finished quest will reward you with a gift. Inside will be a decoration or cosmetic for your collection room that you can use to make it a little more like your own.
