About Fresh Start Cleaning Simulator
Fresh Start Cleaning Simulator is a single‑player, relaxing adventure where you travel worldwide with a single device that both vacuums dirt and sprays water. As you clean mud and litter, the environment visibly improves, plants revive, and animals appear.
Collected rubbish is turned into experience points that you spend in a skill shop to make cleaning and watering more efficient. The game includes Steam achievements, full controller support, and Family Sharing on Windows.
01 / THE GUIDE
Hybrid Vacuum‑Water Device
The core tool combines a vacuum cleaner and a watering hose. You use it to pull up mud, dirt, and litter from the ground, and the same device can spray water onto dry plants.
All rubbish gathered by the vacuum is stored for recycling, converting each piece into experience points that later fund upgrades.
- Focus on larger piles first to collect more experience per action.
- Switch to the spray function when you see wilted plants nearby.

Experience Points and Skill Shop
Rubbish you collect is recycled into valuable experience points. These points act as the currency for the skill shop, where you can purchase upgrades that affect cleaning speed, capacity, or water power.
Upgrades let you handle larger areas or revive plants with fewer actions, letting the world change faster as you progress.
- Buy capacity upgrades early to hold more rubbish at once.
- Balance speed upgrades with water power to stay effective in both cleaning and watering.

Helping Animals and Gaining Friends
While traveling you meet cute, unique characters that need assistance. Providing comfort and happiness earns their gratitude and friendship, adding a social element to the gameplay.
Feeding hungry animals with gathered food dispensers deepens these bonds and can lead to additional quests.
- Locate food dispensers early to keep animals satisfied.
- Interact with new friends soon after cleaning nearby debris.
