About Moldwasher
Open the door to a long-forgotten fridge and become a true sanitation hero. In this meditative arcade game, players control a food hero using a pressure stream to clean mold that has taken over food, shelves, drawers, and even the freezer. Choose the right tool, switch cleaning modes, push back enemies, unlock new rewards, and bring sparkling cleanliness back to every corner.
Key Features
Pressure-Powered Gameplay – Aim, spray, and switch cleaning modes. Blast away different types of dirt while getting a huge sense of satisfaction from cleaning. Let’s be honest, it’s the only kitchen you’ll ever get sparkling clean.
Choose the Best Tool – Wield a pressure washer, leaf blower, flamethrower, pickaxe, and more to tackle stubborn grime across the kitchen. Adapt your approach (full berserk is okay too) and level up each tool to boost your skills and make your gear even more powerful!
Varied Locations – Every corner of the kitchen – from the shelf in the fridge, to those odd boxes, the forgotten nooks behind the freezer, or the kitchen countertop – every corner hides something to scrub. Make your kitchen shine and peek behind jars in the fridge – you never know what you can find there!
Strange & Sticky Foes – How gross is it to talk about different kinds of dirt? Just clean it up, pls.
Adorable Food Hero – You’re the Nigiri. Cute sushi on a mission to clean everything!
Progression & Unlocks – Earn new audio tracks, and cosmetic items to personalize your basement. Cash in your points for shinier and stronger gear at the store – because a clean hero deserves style.
Lo-Fi Beats – A chill lo-fi soundtrack and satisfying cleaning sounds make every spray extremely calming.
