About the Game

Bad Janitor is a game, where your objective as an undercover janitor is to get tenants to move out of their apartments by discreetly annoying them, so the buildings can be torn down and get rebuilt into office complexes by your actual employer, CityGrind Corp. You will also have to perform basic janitorial duties to keep your job and cover.

STORY

Your big day is here! After ten years of slowly climbing through the ranks at CityGrind Corp, you’ve finally been scheduled to meet the boss. Rumours around the office tell of a new and innovative land acquisition method that can quickly turn financially unimportant apartment buildings into beautiful new office complexes. Your meeting with the boss confirms these rumours and you get transferred to a new position to implement them in practice.

You’re slipped in to a company that provides janitorial services to apartment buildings around the city and begin your campaign of annoyance.
