Very similar to the game Party Hard and i love it because its super addicting and fun. Got a little heated trying for all the achievements but not to bad

A very simple, stealth-light game.
The challenge isn't that high, but it also doesn't overstay it's welcome.
The visual style and sound design are nice, but nothing that will blow your mind.
As the game says itself, you cleaning up after murders - nice movie references are present, the story is very much skip-able, and getting 100% achievements isn't that hard, taking between 4 -8 hours, so use that for your money / fun ratio.
All in all, I would still recommend the game mainly for any of those times where you just want a quick game instead of a time sink and don't want to stress out about min-maxing gameplay, but also don't want something that is too passive.

I think this is a pretty well made game, and the store page gives a pretty accurate account of what to expect, though the trailer music does make the game feel a little more upbeat than actual gameplay imo. There are a few things that feel a bit cheap, like being able to hide right in front of a guard and them lose track of you, but there are optional challenge modes that prevent you from doing this. These challenges also come with leaderboards that show your current rank, however there didn't appear to be any way to scroll up/down the list, or to view friends times.

Unique game experience. Music topnotch, design top tier, gameplay easy to understand, but sometimes furiating and can be moderatly challenging. It's nice game overall. I recommend it. Big high five to the development team!

Short but (very) sweet game. Definitely a casual game. The puzzles ('contracts') are ok, but the controls are a little bit off (maybe is the part of difficulty)
Buy on sale ;)

Serial Cleaner is a short and sweet yet challenging stealth game where you clean up after the mafia.
It's fairly short in length but comes with many different challenge modes for each level with leaderboards & extra content that you can discover through collectibles and some achievements to grind for, so if the game just hits that sweet spot for you it has a lot of replay-ability.
It's a 3-4 hour long game if you only do the main levels and nothing else.
It's fairly simplistic in terms of controls(keyboard-only or controller) and what you can do, being limited to Clean Up Blood, Dispose of Body and Pick Up X items. But each level gets more difficult with more guards and guards covering more ground, larger maps, objects you have to move to either open up paths for yourself or to change the guard paths.
There are places to hide in as well. A lot can be done strategically from the player to complete each level.
It's not super difficult but it's not easy either, I'd say it's around Medium to Hard in difficulty. It's a challenge, and it's not very forgiving either as getting caught restarts the whole level.
I see huge speedrunning potential in this game, not only for the specific challenge modifiers but also the vanilla levels, it's a perfect game for it and as mentioned earlier it has leaderboards.
On Speedrun.com it has a small amount of impressive runs up, feels like it's a bit of an undiscovered game that could become quite popular if it got discovered by more people for speedrunning.
It has a story but to be quite honest it might as well not have been there, it feels forcibly tacked-on. The story is told through 1-minute intervals between levels where you talk to your mom or to someone on the phone, to me at least it's meaningless fluff and I paid no attention to any of it.
The music was extremely repetitive, I had to mute that and turn something else on in the background.
