InCleanfallyou essentially play a Roomba that is trying to reverse the apocalypse because the apocalypse ismessy. A Roomba capable of tunnelling through miles of procedurally generated, monster-infested crust so as to reorganise the Earth’s core and bring about its ultimate objective - a sparkling living room. I enjoy the militant reductiveness of this character motivation. There are sprawling underground ecosystems to discover, yes, weird plants to harvest, fractious clumps of tentacles to appraise, avoid or slaughter. But all of these things are contemptible details to be swept up and bagged and thrown in the dumpster.

I haven’t had a chance to play, but there’sa demo on Steam, and initial user reactions suggest that this is worth a pop. The full game is out in 2025. The obvious comparisons, which I will now crudely weld into a revolting headline, areSpelunkyandTerrariawith a touch ofCarrionandNoita.
