De-Shrekify Shrek’s legendary swamp and cabin in new PowerWash Simulator DLC

PowerWash Simulator lives in a niche all of its own, and it sure manages to dominate regardless. Over the past couple of years, FuturLab’s surprisingly engaging wash ’em up has played host to all manner of wild DLC, but the new Shrek DLC may well top it all.

“Playtime is ogre,” says . Featuring pixie-dust cleaners, faerie soap, and the good old-fashioned mops, PowerWash Simulator’s new Shrek Special DLC pack takes players on a romp through a classic fantasy franchise. The gist of it all is still much the same, of course, but who could say no to an opportunity to power-wash Shrek’s Swamp?

Clean up Shrek’s swamp in PowerWash Simulator… for $7,99

Priced at $7,99, Shrek Special𒅌 🍷is actually seemingly quite loaded with content. There are five maps to clean up in total:

• Duloc
• Hansel’s Honeymoon Hideaway
• Shrek’s Swamp
• Fairy Godmother’s Potion Factory
• Dragon’s Lair

Of course, included is the aforementioned roster of magical cleaning tools and supplies, which puts this DLC at roughly the same ratio of content-per-dollar as all the other PowerWash Simulator DLCs. Content-wis♎e, it s🗹eems pretty solid, but there are some problems to keep in mind for the time being.

As of October 10, the current build of the game will apparently lock up and make it impossible to do much of anything in-game if you try to actually clean up any of Shrek’s unlikely mud palaces. Even entering menus becomes impossible, so it may pay off to wait until the developer can patch things up. FuturLab has historically been quite good with these matters, so it won’t take long before the problems are properly sorted out.

Once that’s all been sorted out, though, I’ve no doubt that Shrek Special will take its rightful place as a worthy alternative to the prior Warhammer 40K, SpongeBob SquarePants, and Tomb Raider DLCs, just to list a few.
