Cleaning Simulator is 99% positive on Steam – Now has a co-op mode
Simulators are the genre that creates all sorts of bizarre stuff. One of the stranger representatives is the PowerWash Simulator, which has been on Steam since May 2021. Now it has got a co-op mode and it inspires the players.
What kind of game is this? PowerWash Simulator was released in Early Access on Steam on May 19th. You run your own high-pressure cleaner business there and do the work yourself. The goal is satisfied (and clean) customers.
In career mode you should clean up your neighborhood in “Muckingham” and build your cleaning empire in the process. The better and faster you clean the cars, house fronts and more, the more points you get.
In challenge mode, you have to clean particularly quickly or precisely. Different “opponents” such as moss, mold and graffiti present different challenges. The free mode lets you try it out as you wish. You can personalize your tools with cosmetics.
Since December 2nd, the PowerWash Simulator also has a multiplayer mode in beta. With the free update you can help a friend online in co-op or clean things with up to 6 players in free mode.
“I have no idea why this game is so relaxing and satisfying”
PowerWash Simulator is so popular: Since its release, the simulator has had 98% positive votes in 12,200 reviews and is therefore “extremely positive” (via Steam). The recent reviews are even better at 99% because the co-op mode was an often requested feature.
Many fans appreciate the PowerWash Simulator for the relaxed gameplay. Although it is de facto work, many players use the simulator to relax after work. The interplay of simple gameplay and various challenges seems to be well received.

The few negative criticisms that the game received mainly criticized the lack of variety. From the well-known YouTuber Kalle Koschinsky it says: “Where should the ‘game’ be relaxing? I was just upset. ”Even in positive reviews, the fans declare that one shouldn’t expect too much – it’s just a cleaning simulation.
