About Cleaner
It is a quiet little puzzle game with 50 levels to work through.
The catch is that a tap on the block grid never flips just one tile. The tile you pick flips together with its neighbors above, below, left and right, in a cross shape. That means fixing one corner of the board can easily mess up a spot you already sorted out.

Each of the 50 levels asks for more planning than the one before it. Since a single tap can change up to five tiles at once, Cleaner plays more like a brain teaser than a speed test, and you get the most out of it by working out the result in your head before you touch anything.
Tiles sitting on the edge of the grid have fewer neighbors, so a tap there flips fewer tiles than a tap in the middle. Those edge and corner tiles end up being the careful moves you use to fine tune a board that is almost done.
Quick summary
- Each level gives you a grid of tiles that do not all match yet.
- You tap tiles to flip them, and every tap also flips the tiles right next to it.
- A level is solved once the whole board is uniform.
- Solving a board takes you to the next one, all the way through 50 levels.
Key features
- There are 50 levels, and they get harder as you go.
- Every tap flips a cross of up to five tiles.
- The goal on every board is to get all tiles to the same color, a simple spin on coloring games.
- You can play with a mouse or a touchscreen.
Tips & tricks
- Before each tap, picture all the tiles in the cross that will flip, not just the one under your finger.
- Use edge and corner tiles when you need a smaller change, since they flip fewer tiles than middle ones.
- If a tap would undo a finished part of the board, look for another tile whose cross does not touch that area.
