The article discusses the juxtaposition of two darkly comedic narratives: the game Crime Scene Cleaner and the BBC series The Cleaner. Both involve protagonists who are tasked with cleaning up after gruesome murders. While Greg Davies' character Wicky encounters living nuisances, Kovalsky, the janitor in the game, deals only with the dead. Despite their grim occupations, each character provides a humorous glimpse into their world, with Kovalsky's morally ambiguous choices and Wicky's relatable need to finish in time for pub night playing key roles in their stories.
The aim is to leave each location exactly as it was prior to the incident, highlighting the surreal yet engaging nature of cleaning up after gruesome events.
Kovalsky is a lowly janitor who mops up blood to cover for a mob boss, adding an unexpected layer of moral complexity to the game.
