Dinsun Review
I don't like chores in real life, so I didn't expect to like them on my phone. But there is something fundamentally right about PowerWash Simulator. It appeals to the part of my 40-year-old brain that loves order and visible progress. The sound of the water hitting the dirt is perfectly captured. It’s a slow game—excruciatingly slow for some—but for me, it’s the perfect way to wind down after a day of work.
The touch controls are actually better than I expected, though trying to find that one tiny 0.1% of dirt left on a massive roof can be maddening. It’s a conservative game in that it does one thing and does it perfectly. It doesn't need a story or high-octane action. It’s just you, a nozzle, and a very dirty park. It’s a niche masterpiece.
