Clean The Mars Rover

*"Hey Wishy, sorry to message you so late at night, but how are you set for tomorrow? You remember my friend Marsha, the total space cadet? She's got an urgent need for a powerwasher. Couple of disclaimers. 1. She's waaay out of town, but said she'll pay your expenses, as long as they're not too astronomical. 2. It has to be tomorrow.*

*I just thought doing an odd job somewhere alien might help your business take-off? I'll text you the details when I get them in the morning, and you can see how it lands. Until then, you can always dream of what it could be..."*

*-Harper Shaw*

**Clean The Mars Rover** is one of four Bonus Jobs available at the start of the game, with no unlock requirements. The Prime Vista 1500 is the only Power Washer that can be used. The job takes place on the Surface of Mars, causing players to have reduced gravity. Harper Shaw sends the initial and final overview messages, while Galactos Industries is the client sending messages during the job.

**Harper Shaw*** Morning Wishy! Don't worry about that emergency job, my bud's called it off - it rained last night and it's clean enough from that.Also, you wouldn't believe the dream I had last night. Full 'should I donate my brain to science?' bizarro.How about you? Let me guess, you dreamt of washing a skyscraper after a huge gorilla made a mess of it? I miss you! See you soon, buddy.

## Achievements

The **Specialist** Achievement has been renamed to the **Side Hustle** Achievement. This is earned after the first Bonus Job is completed.

## Trivia

* This level's gnome is the Martian variation. The gnome is located on top of the Mystery Hatch, which is found when following the footprints away from the Rover.
* Harper's messages suggest that this job takes place in a dream, with the player never actually going to Mars.
* Prior to The Muckingham Files content update, the level did not feature messages throughout the job. The previous overview message stated: *"It's time to put the water on Mars to good use, as the rover needs a clean."*
* The "Rover" is the Perseverance Mars Rover, which landed on Mars on February 18, 2021. NASA's 3D visualization of the Rover can be found here.
	+ The Perseverance Rover carries a small helicopter called Ingenuity; it is the first drone to have achieved powered-flight on another planet.
	+ The Perseverance Rover runs on the same computer that powered the Curiosity Rover and the Opportunity Rover.
* In real life, the gravity of Mars is about 38% that of Earth. In-game, this reduction in gravity translates to higher jumps and slower falls.
