Split into multiple acts, you’ll embark on a flashback memory for each character per act.

Exploring the seedy underbelly of the 90s is constantly compelling and Serial Cleaners takes advantage of this exceptionally well. There’s a dramatic moment that happens about two thirds of the way through that felt like it came out of nowhere, and I’m still unsure about whether I’d just missed something or if it just wasn’t set up properly.Īside from this, the band of ill-fitting criminals are charismatic and have their fair share of heartfelt moments which carry the narrative well. The writing and dialogue is adept at exploration of each character’s motivations and history, but the way in which the story jumps around did prove confusing.

It’s a very Pulp Fiction-esque type narrative, where the present-day scene acts as a gateway to explore how each member entered the fold and became part of the crew. The 90s backdrop works superbly well in providing creative setups for their missions and backstories.

A psychopathic yet deeply curious brute, a budding art student with a wavering self-assurance and a hacker who speaks in acronyms because it’s so el-o-el. There’s 4 in total, including our returning anti-hero from the original, who now leads this eccentric bunch. Serial Cleaners opens with an introduction to all of the new criminal crew.
