You play as an employee of a cleaning company sent to paranormal locations, either alone or in online co-op with up to three other players. Each site has its own supernatural threat and cleanup job.
Collect trash, dispose of moldy pizzas, scrub ectoplasm, unclog toilets, and repair broken sewage pipes while entities hunt you. Cleaning actions can increase an entity’s anger, so you must balance finishing tasks with moving carefully and hiding.
Optional objectives can involve finding keys and related items to weaken or banish an entity before completing the cleanup. Earn experience and money to unlock and upgrade perks and gear, and unlock character outfits as you progress.
Players often enjoy the game most with friends, where splitting up cleaning tasks and reacting to a pursuing entity turns the unusual janitorial premise into tense, funny moments. Reviews also praise the mix of scares and routine chores, along with the maps and perk progression. Some players enjoy solo runs too, though several describe the experience as more repetitive after revisiting maps.
Paranormal Cleanup is a multiplayer horror game where up to 4 players take on the role of cleaning company employees tasked with cleaning up trash in paranormal locations. You must work together to complete your mission, all while avoiding the relentless pursuit of the entities who try to hunt you down.
The task is pretty simple - all you have to do is dispose(eat) moldy pizzas, unclog nasty toilets, scrub ectoplasm and clean up some trash here and there. But beware, entities like ghosts, cult leaders and other paranormal beings roam these places, and they're not happy about your presence. You'll need to be smart and stealthy as you clean up, as every action you take will increase the entities anger.
