Serial Cleaner, the quirky crime-scene cleanup puzzler, is making a comeback! Originally released in 2019, this title is returning to mobile platforms. Will it be a refined re-release or simply a modernized port? Only time will tell.
The game throws you into the gritty, yet cartoonish, 1970s. As Bob Leaner, your job is to discreetly eliminate evidence of mob violence – bodies, bloodstains, the whole shebang – all while dodging patrolling police officers.
Our previous review (2019) described the original Serial Cleaner as "half-baked but with potential." Developer Plug-In Digital is now self-publishing this mobile iteration, suggesting a chance for improvement.
A Funky Return?
Pre-registration is open, with a February 11th, 2025 release date. While significant updates aren't confirmed, a polished re-release would be a welcome improvement given the mixed reception of the original. However, the significant time elapsed since the initial launch makes extensive changes seem less likely.
The core concept remains captivating, but a simple mobile port diminishes the excitement somewhat. Nevertheless, Android users who missed out, or those experiencing compatibility issues with older iOS versions, might consider this an early gift.
