FAQ:

---

| Why should I care about the topic of computers?

Well, for starters, you are viewing this Steam page, which requires interactions between multiple computers to show this end result. And, of course, you are probably planning to play this game or another on some sort of computer. Therefore, the work of computers is important to you.

| Okay, but why should I play The Cleaning Game?

You get to learn about and interact with many problems facing computers today. Although it may seem boring to you now, you will likely find a terrifyingly large amount of parallels between your own life and the game's campaign (Spoiler Alert). In addition, this game is great for improving the underrated skills of observation and listening.

| That's not what I said!

Yes, but in the main game, you will not be able to say anything at all. Instead, your coworkers will have to painfully interpret and extrapolate your profound, complicated opinions from your simple actions. After all, we've all got some boring nonsense to say to you, and we are going to make sure you endure the pain of listening to it.

| Did you say "problems facing computers" as if...?

Don't think about it too much. That's what the game is for. Just act like this is a normal Steam game description and read on, pretending that you are blissfully unaware of the intricacies contained within.

| What parallels? How could there be any similarities between a computer and I--

Please save your existential crisis for the actual gameplay. You still have some Steam shopping to do. Have you seen the games on here?

| I am real, right..?

If you are human, then you are. If not, then have I got some bad news for you: you are probably real too. Don't freak out. In the case of rapid panic, please download the game and quickly progress to the part designed for rapid panic.

| How does this game run on a potato? (Asking for a friend...)

The Cleaning Game is a modification of the game Portal 2. Portal 2 was originally released by Valve in 2011 and uses an older version of Valve's Source Engine. This means that The Cleaning Game is suitable for older computers. (Of course, you can also always adjust game settings to increase efficiency.)
