Take control of a robot vacuum in a fast, arcade-style cleaning game. Race the clock, pick up trash across growing 3D homes — and now the backyard — and keep your battery and brushes from running out before the room turns to chaos. HOW TO PLAY Drag the on-screen joystick to move your robot. Roll over trash to vacuum it up and earn points. Return to the charging dock when your battery gets low. Watch your brush wear — fur and tough messes drain it faster. If the floor fills with too much trash, you enter crisis mode and must clean up fast or lose the level. THE CHALLENGE You are not alone. Adults, kids, pets, dogs, guests, neighbor kids, and couriers keep dropping new mess while you work. Avoid collisions — they cost battery. Balance speed, routing, and resource management to survive every round. 40 LEVELS, FOUR CAMPAIGNS • Mega 1 — Apartment: 10 levels from a cozy studio to a penthouse • Mega 2 — Private House: 10 levels from a cottage to a mansion • Mega 3 — Two-Story House: 10 levels with FIRST and SECOND FLOOR — drive onto glowing floor pads to switch levels; dock and brush service are on both floors • Mega 4 — Backyard: 10 outdoor levels from a small patio to a driveway — clean leaves and gravel under open sky Each sub-level brings a new scenario — Morning Start, Pet Chaos, Guest Invasion, Final Boss, and more. Spaces grow larger, more characters appear, and the pressure builds level by level. FEATURES • Simple touch controls — easy to pick up, hard to master • Real-time battery and brush management • Charging dock and brush service in every location (both floors on Mega 3) • Colorful 3D rooms and outdoor yards with furniture and dynamic mess • Game Center leaderboard and achievements • Score tracking, best score, save progress, level select, and pause menu • Progressive difficulty across four mega campaigns • Portrait mode — play one-handed anywhere Can you clean every room and yard, conquer all four mega levels, and earn complete victory? Download Rumba Vacuum and start cleaning.
