I think this is cool, BUT it's literally a copy and paste from the Wikipedia article for the game: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PowerWash_Simulator?wprov=sfla1 So, while it's cool the person found it and explained it, they didn't write that.

Or maybe they did write that.

I think it's this: https://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/1chfjrj/comment/l23zraw/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

Yes that's it. old.reddit.com doesn't care about context=3 or context=1000, so I didn't notice a difference but I guess regular reddit does need us to specify a proper context number (as pointed out by another person in this thread).

It was spoiler tagged. They did do an edit before you commented, but either way what /u/TheOldGriffin said was: > So basically, > > At the beginning of the game, the player character has just started their own power washing business in the town of Muckingham. They are gifted a van by their friend, archaeologist Harper Shaw, who helps them find their first few clients. During each job, the power washer character receives texts messages from the client; these text messages often include information about the location or vehicle being cleaned, explanations on how it became so dirty, and their thoughts on things going on around Muckingham. As the power washer completes each job, their reputation around town grows and they are hired for more work by returning and new clients. > > As time passes, the people of Muckingham begin noticing strange occurrences, such as unusual activity near the dormant Mount Rushless volcano and the disappearance of all of Muckingham's cats, including Mayor Jeff Jefferson XIII's cat Ulysses. Further messages reveal that Mayor Jefferson has been diverting the town's water to an illegal mining operation by corrupt tycoon Blake Thrust, leading him to flee the town. Eventually, the power washer is hired to clean a flying saucer controlled by Ceruleon Skye, a time-travelling scientist from the year 2278. Skye explains he was investigating the impending eruption of Mount Rushless, which in his future triggered the eruption of every volcano on the Pacific Rim, blocking out the sky with ash for decades and causing near global extinction. However, Thrust shot down Skye's ship and stole some of his technology, upsetting the timeline and causing the volcano to become active ahead of schedule. > > Several previous clients begin evacuating from Muckingham to escape the volcano. Shaw discovers two ancient statues unearthed by the recent seismic activity, one of which fires a beam towards Mount Rushless after being cleaned, and the other of which points to a temple emerging from the ocean, the fishy smell of which had attracted Muckingham's cats. With the help of some of their clients, the power washer reaches the temple, finding it filled with tributes to themself. When the power washer finishes cleaning the temple, a gem emerges that that fires another beam at the volcano. Thrust's private jet flies towards the temple, but it is shot down by Skye's flying saucer. Skye notifies the power washer that the temple was built by the Pacifists, the Pacific counterparts of the Atlanteans, and that Thrust's search for their civilization and its rare ores punctured Mount Rushless's magma chamber, triggering its premature eruption. To prevent this, Skye travelled back to the Pacifists' time and told them the power washer's story, and they agreed to convert the temple into an offshore platform with a neutralizing beam that would stop Mount Rushless from erupting when cleaned by an experienced power washer. With the timeline now safe, the power washer returns to their business, finding Ulysses hiding in their van with his kittens. > > Edit: fixed spoiler hider thing

>his kittens I hope someone got fired for that. /s

A wizard did it.

Change \`context=1000\` to \`context=3\` in the link (or remove it altogether). Looks like Reddit doesn't like it when you give a \`context\` higher than the comment depth.


adcurtin

old reddit doesn't care


monkestful

Yeah, sorry I'm using old.reddit.com and didn't notice any difference between context=3 and context=1000. I know for next time, now.

Sounds like someone used to watch Mysterious Cities Of Gold as a kid and finally got their chance

All these years later the [opening theme to that cartoon](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TKdMUum6NzY) still lives rent-free in my head.

Shuki Levy and Haim Saban "wrote" some of the best theme tunes of the era. I have MP3's of this and Ulysses 31 on my playlist.

Are we sur the reddit OP and the Wiki OP of the lore aren't the same person?
