Pocket
Change
Every pocket holds a surprise. Inherit your great-aunt’s little laundrette and bring it back to life.
The job
Great-Aunt Mags has left you her laundrette, Suds & Duds: a few tired washers, a wobbly folding table, a shop cat called Bandit and a note that says “check every pocket”. So you do.
Customers drop off their washing and you take it from there. Empty the pockets (loose change, lost keys, love notes, the odd tiny dinosaur), scrub out the mud, the grass and the red wine, pick the right wash, wring it through the mangle, hang it to dry and fold it nice and neat.
Little by little the shop becomes yours. Keep one eye on Victor Brassley from the shiny megalaundry down the road, who would very much like to buy you out. And somewhere among all those pockets are notes in Mags’ handwriting, leading to something she never got to finish.
Evidence
What you’ll actually be doing, all day, very happily.
Hands-on laundry
Empty pockets, scrub stains, choose the wash, mangle, dry and fold every garment yourself. Each job has its own little feel.
Treasure in every pocket
Over 30 finds to collect, from fluff and bottle caps to gold coins. Complete sets for perks, and return lost valuables to their owners.
Bandit the shop cat
He naps on the machines, knocks things off shelves, demands dinner and loves a chin scratch. Pet him often.
Regulars with stories
Get to know the people who come back every week, and find out what they’re up to.
Grow the shop
A big upgrade tree: tools, machines, staff and the waiting area. Buy the units next door and knock through to build a mega-laundry.
A gentle mystery
Follow Mags’ notes, outsmart Brassley, and find out who “M.” was writing to. Cosy, calm and no fail states.
