Serial Cleaner, the fiendish puzzle game where you erase crime scenes and conceal evidence, is making a comeback! Initially released in 2019, this title is returning, though whether it's a refined reissue or simply a modernized port remains to be seen.
The game transports you to the gritty 1970s, a decade depicted in film as rife with urban decay, stylish street gangs, and bizarre occurrences (falling turkeys and killer sharks, anyone?). Serial Cleaner captures this era's dark humor.
As Bob Leaner, your task is to meticulously clean up crime scenes, disposing of bodies, wiping away blood, and eliminating any trace of mob violence – all while cleverly avoiding the police.
Remember our 2019 review? It highlighted the game's potential despite its flaws. Developer Plug-In Digital is now self-publishing, bringing Serial Cleaner back to mobile platforms.
Pre-registration is open, with a February 11th, 2025 release date. The extent of improvements remains unclear. While a polished update would be welcome, given the time elapsed, significant enhancements might be unrealistic.
Despite the intriguing concept, a simple mobile re-release dampens expectations. However, Android users who missed out, or those experiencing compatibility issues on iOS, might consider this an early gift. For everyone else, explore our weekly top five new mobile games list!
