About This Demo

The Cleaner: Prologue — the introductory chapter of an atmospheric adventure about a little bird named Taki.

The journey begins

Hungry, Taki sets off on her journey. In this world, every day starts with simple needs and small decisions. But even the most ordinary step can lead to an unexpected encounter.

Someone seems dangerous.
Someone seems strange.
Someone is too big and incomprehensible.

The first chapter of the story

In this chapter, you will experience the opening scenes of Taki’s journey — a self-contained story that reveals a living, hand-painted natural world through observation and interaction.

Sometimes the hardest path is learning to understand the world around you.

Listen carefully

Sound is a key part of the gameplay.

Many puzzles and hints are built around the sounds of the environment and the voices of real animals. We recommend playing with headphones to immerse yourself fully and catch the details more precisely.

What awaits you

• The opening scenes of Taki’s journey
• Nature-based puzzles and interactive episodes
• A living paper world with watercolor art
• Sound as a gameplay mechanic

If this first step resonates with you, the continuation awaits in the full version of The Cleaner.
