UPDATE 10.06pm: Following a bit of an "oopsy" on developer FuturLab's part, Steam users now have an additional two PowerWash Simulator levels to blast into a state of cleanliness alongside today's intended cruise ship release.
It's not entirely clear how the mishap occurred, but it started after Steam users began reporting they were unable to play PowerWash Simulator's cruise ship DLC following its release earlier today. Then, while FuturLab was orchestrating a fix, the game's next update - The Muckingham Files 4 - managed to work its way onto Valve's store ahead of schedule.
As a result, Steam users now have access to two additional PowerWash Simulator jobs: they can hose down crypto enthusiast Devon King's vandalised modern mansion, as well as pilot Floraine Perez' fire plane - which is looking a bit worse for wear after a flight over Mount Rushless.

Alice's Adventures is PowerWash Simulator's fourth paid expansion, following on from Warhammer 40K, Back to the Future, and SpongeBob SquarePants crossovers. It features five new stages - taking seasoned squirters to a "a topsy-turvy, swizzy, whirly world of psychedelic colours, maximalist décor and larger than life locales" - plus a couple of other bits too.
On the new stage front, there's Wonderland Entrance Hall, White Rabbit's House, Caterpillar's Mushroom, Mad Tea Party, and Queen of Hearts' Court- all of which can be admired in FuturLab's release date post - and those arrive alongside an all-new outfit, gloves, and power washer skin. Oh, and there are two new achievements.

Creating the Mad Tea Party in PowerWash Simulator’s Upcoming Alice’s Adventures Special Pack
Summary
The new Alice’s Adventures Special Pack contains five new levels, 10 achievements, and new cosmetics.
The Mad Tea Party is a one-of-a-kind level where you’re tiny — you’ll return to normal size in the other levels.
The Alice’s Adventures Special Pack for PowerWash Simulator comes to Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One on July 2, 2024.
Get ready to take a trip to the topsy-turvy, terribly dirty realm of Wonderland in the Alice’s Adventures Special Pack for PowerWash Simulator, launching July 2, 2024, for Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One. The new Special Pack contains five mind-bending new levels, 10 achievements, and psychedelic cosmetics for your character and power washer.
Together with Sam Jenkins from FuturLab’s design team, who oversaw the design of this level, we’re excited to give you this exclusive first look at the Mad Tea Party job from the Special Pack, which is our first real venture into experimenting with player character scale.
Start small, wash big
The Mad Tea Party is the fourth job in the Alice’s Adventures mini-campaign. In this level, you’ll power wash an extremely mucky table following the infamous soirée. Sounds like a quick job, right? Not quite.
For the first time, we’ve experimented with the scale of the player character. You’ll be shrunken down to the size of a spoon and tasked with cleaning cakes and crockery twice your height (and then some). Our community have long asked for a level like this, and the Mad Tea Party seemed like the ideal opportunity to bring this idea to life.
“We had the idea to make use of how characters in Wonderland often change their size by drinking potions to shrink the player character,” explains Jenkins. “To make a level like the Mad Tea Party a satisfyingly paced experience, we had to be very careful with what scale we wanted everything to be compared to the washer. To do this, we experimented with a few early block outs to find that sweet spot where all the washable objects on the table were the perfect mix of fun and challenging.”
Does that make sense? No? Good!
PowerWash players have always loved the way the game doesn’t take itself too seriously, and we embraced this in the Alice’s Adventures Special Pack. There’s a real emphasis on the theme of nonsense that “Alice in Wonderland,” and Carrol’s work, is known for. This meant we could bend some rules that we usually stick to in PowerWash Simulator. For example, cleaning food!
“In the past, we’ve never washed food in PowerWash Simulator, as food is just not something anyone would realistically ask you to wash. But in the Alice’s Adventures Special Pack, we’re in Wonderland, and Wonderland isn’t meant to make sense!” says Jenkins. “I wanted to have food in this level because players likely won’t be able to wash it in any other PowerWash Simulator level. It also feels in character for the Mad Hatter to have the player wash his food, with no thought to if it’d be edible or not after!”
Creating a Tablescape
The entire job takes place on the tabletop, so we set about creating themed props and incidentals, from hourglasses to teapots, that create a fun, explorable environment for a miniature power washer.
“We also put a lot of thought into how the player could traverse around and parkour up and on objects like the Mad Hatter’s hat, candelabra, teapot and Cake Stand plates,” adds Jenkins. “So we made sure they were purposefully placed in a way that allows players to climb on them without equipment and jump between them!”
Another unique design philosophy for this pack was the steer towards maximalism that really sets it apart from the base game. Opulent, eccentric and busy prints lie beneath the muck, making for super-satisfying reveal with every pass of the washer.
We can’t wait to see you polish off a plate so clean, your nanny would be proud in this job. And if you’re hungry for a second serving, there’s always Free Play mode!
“I’m really excited to see players reactions to this pack,” concludes Jenkins. “It has lots of humour in the story and the dirt, lots of really satisfying and quirky environments to explore and lots of nods to the original Alice story I think people will appreciate.”
Go down the rabbit hole on July 2, 2024, when the Alice’s Adventures Special Pack releases on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One.

"The whimsical special pack captures the essence of Alice in Wonderland by showcasing iconic visuals and quirky designs," explains publisher Square Enix in its announcement. "Players will enjoy the beautiful environmental art, vivid colours, and unique looks depicted in each level."

Pokud někdo tvrdí, že simulátory jsou nudné, tak neobjevil jejich kouzlo. Důkazem jsou úspěšné hry jako série Farming Simulator se zemědělstvím a PowerWash Simulator.
Mytí špinavých automobilů, dětského parku, staré lokomotivy nebo metra některé hráče pohltilo. Nemluvě o dodatečných balíčcích s Croft Manor z Tomb Raider, Zátiším Bikin ze SpongeBoba, Návratu do budoucnosti, Warhammeru 40,000 nebo dílny Santa Clause.
Hra poprvé spláchla starost hráčů v roce 2021, když vyšla v předběžném přístupu na Steamu. Od té doby okouzlila mnoho hráčů na počítačích, konzolích i ve virtuální realitě. Počet hráčů se vyšplhal nad 12 milionů.
Nutno podotknout, že jde o počet hráčů a ne prodané kopie. PowerWash Simulator byl totiž součástí PlayStation Plus a nyní je v nabídce Xbox Game Passu.
„Neustále žasneme nad tím, jak naše hra na lidi působí. Nyní má neuvěřitelných 12 milionů hráčů a je jasné, že existuje touha po hrách, jako je PowerWash Simulator, které poskytují uklidňující pocit uspokojení – a my je hodláme vytvářet! Na znamení tohoto nového směřování studia s radostí odhalujeme naše nové webové stránky,“ uvedla Kirsty Rigden, generální ředitelka FuturLab.
Bohužel se mi nezdá, že by na nových oficiálních stránkách byl nějaký teaser toho, co ve studiu do budoucna chystají.

A first step on the path to buying a bunch of miniatures. It's out now, for £6.50/$8/€8 on Steam, and it's very fun.

My experience with Warhams isn't flat zero - I had some minifigs when I was a teenager and played a few of the Dawn Of War video games - but I haven't actively checked in on it for a while.

My experience with cleaning-stuff-sim PowerWash Simulator is extensive, though, and I was excited when the crossover with Warhammer 40K was teased a while back.
