A bearded sweeper in a yellow hard hat has decided to clean the whole filthy city on his own, and the city fights back. Each level is a patch of grimy pavement with a green border. On the border you are safe. Press Space to start sweeping, head out onto the dirt and your footsteps draw a line behind you; come back to the green and the section you closed off turns clean. The catch is the characters wandering the street, among them a fiery-haired thug. If one of them touches you, or touches a line you have not finished, you lose a life. Clean the target percentage before the timer ends to move on. It is a classic Spil Games arcade title from about 2009.
| Arrow keys | Walk around the border and across the street |

How to play Clean Mania
- Press Start from the menu, or read How to Play first for the power-up list.
- Walk along the green border, where the troublemakers cannot hurt you.
- Press Space and step out to start a line, then return to the border to close the area.
- Keep closing sections until the cleaned percentage reaches the target shown for the level.
- Pick up power-ups on the way: a helmet gives an extra life, a money bag adds 200 points and a boot speeds you up.
Tips
- Short, quick loops are safer than big ones; the longer a line stays open, the more likely someone crosses it.
- Cut off the area where an enemy is standing and it has less room to chase you.
- Grab the speed boot before a long run so the line closes sooner.
