From just two hours of playing PowerWash Simulator 2, I can confidently say that there are few things in life as satisfying. Plugging in a USB on your first try? A sublime feeling, but it doesn't quite compare to washing a thousand years of decadence from a roadside billboard, does it?
I've long admired PowerWash Simulator and its frankly ludicrous string of DLC, which range from SpongeBob SquarePants to Final Fantasy and Warhammer 40K. I've long admired the way it turns monuments of filth into grimy peelable scratchcards, but knowing how hard my lizard brain falls for simple and repetitive tasks, I watched friends stream their playthroughs instead of playing for myself – skirting the moreish black hole.
