Leaner), a gambling addict in debt who gets money by cleaning up crime scenes after murders. After his debt with the mob starts racking up, he takes a new, mysterious client.The game is available on Steam and GOG.A sequel, titled Serial Cleaners, was released on September 22, 2022. It was developed again by iFun4all (by then rebranded as Draw Distance) and published by 505 Games. Taking place in 1999, it follows the further adventures of Bob, now the head of his own cleanup crew, as they recount their various jobs throughout the last decade.

Fighter, Mage, Thief: The new protagonists have different abilities that allow for different playstyles: Psycho carries a chainsaw to dismember bodies and can toss things such as body parts at cops to knock them out, effectively making him the only character capable of what counts as combat. Vip3r is a hacker who is capable of interfacing with the local network to either cause distractions or to open up new opportunities. Lati is the most agile of the group and can jump and climb around the environment that other characters can't. She can also use her natural agility to knock enemies down by either tackling them or sliding into them.
