    I don't have much to say. It came on GamePass when needed the most. it's fun and doing chores never felt better, it's satisfying and fun.

    I never played such a relaxing game before. I'd instantly buy any DLC or a second edition. Of course I'd appreciate improved graphics and performance on the Series X but anyways I enjoyed every minute in full zen mode.

    this game really helps melt away the stress and anxiety when you just want to mindlessly clean, just pop on some music and get to spraying anything that isnt squeaky clean

    En général, tout ce qui finit par « simulator » est un indicateur de grosse daube à l’horizon et près de chez vous ou du moins, près de votre manette ! Ou souris bien sûr. Et d’ailleurs, ça pue souvent du fion en avance comme dans le cas de cette daube ici bas qui a connu sa période « early (ass) access » pour les gogos désireux d’expérimenter l’étron en développement.

    Lequel est sorti aussi plus tard sur Xbox, en plus de la version pour pécétrons bien entendu. Et donc, il faut passer le karcher dans cette simu de karcher (kikoo Sarko, on l’attend toujours ton coup de karcher… depuis 2007 !) qui s’avère aussi chiante que dans la vraie vie…

    Et en plus, quand on se rend compte de la quantité d’eau gâchée, franchement, ça fout les boules ! en tout cas, après le premier nettoyage -et même pendant- je me suis endormi : très bon simulateur d’ennui !    … Expand

    Ok, it's not an ambitious game. It has a clever but simple campaign lore. Graphics are good but not jaw-dropping. The game pace is slow and there isn't much to do other than the obvious deep cleaning stuff. I.E. there's not really anything that I could present as a measurable criteria to explain why I liked it.l

    That said, it is an EXTREMELY SATISFYING experience. For a while, it became my favorite game to chill after a rough day at work, so relaxing that in a couple of occasions I was about to fall sleep on the couches with the controller in my hands. Not saying that in a bad way, I actually enjoyed every second of it.

    Will buy it for sure once it is released for Playstation as well (played on Gamepass). Those devs deserve it.    … Expand

    It's a very fun game, so relaxing when cleaning, if you have some free time, give it a try, but some missions take so long, so if you're a busy person, maybe it's not the game for you, but if you have free time, and like relaxing games, you should definitely give it a try

    It fell off real quick. It was fun for 1 mission, I don't even play it anymore. It. Is. Too. Repetitive. It is not great in my opinion. Just don't play it.

    Game is fun to play for a couple of hours. But after that it gets a little bit repetitive. Decent controls and well put together...

    The game is enjoyable but soooo time consuming. If you're looking to waste a couple hours with something to do while you listen to a podcast or music, this can be a nice companion. Its well made and it has a good variety of options.

    Cleaning is so much fun when it isn't in real-life, you just wash away all these feelings and feel better when playing PowerWash Simulator. Thank you FuturLab for an amazing game.

    When PowerWash Simulator leans into its best qualities, as a soothing and low-impact way to pass some time, it shines like the chrome on a recently power-washed classic car. On the rare occasions when it breaks up its own flow with granular fussiness or interrupts your plans for the in-game economy, it detracts from the experience. At its best, PowerWash Simulator is a quiet, relaxing experience that's best enjoyed in small doses. It's time-consuming, yes, but once in a while, we all need something to consume our time.

    The racing in MX vs. ATV Legends is especially fun to experience in first-person, thanks to the varied courses. The downside, however, is that the game disappoints in many areas. For example, it is full of visual issues, bugs and glitches. In addition, the AI is very unstable and the carrier mode feels a bit empty and mindless. A game that certainly has potential, but where currently not everything is exploited.
