About this game
In Clean Start, you clean and organize other people’s homes while uncovering heartfelt stories through the objects you find.

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.

STORYTELLING THROUGH OBJECTS
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.
FINDING NEW HOME AND NEW FRIENDS
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.
