*"Hi Wishy,*

*I work with your friend Harper for the Global Archaeological Society, and we desperately need your help!*

*All the recent seismic activity, coupled with the worst storm in living memory, has unearthed the most extraordinary statue I've ever seen. We've no idea who made it or when, but we're hoping that with your help those questions will start to get answered.*

*Thanks so much, Sonya."*

*-Sonya Alamuddin*

 *When starting to clean*

**Harper Shaw*** Hi 'Wishy', thanks for heading all this way out of town, it's great to catch up again!
* Can you believe the quality of this statue? This thing is likely over 8000 years old.
 *At 1 star*

**Sonya Alamuddin*** I guess whoever made it had an advanced mythology already.
 *At 2 stars*

**Sonya Alamuddin*** Of course, these things aren't necessarily literal, the Egyptians had statues with the heads of storks and cows.
 *At 3 stars*

**Sonya Alamuddin*** Having said that, have you heard of the Aquatic Ape theory?
* Some believe that we humans spent part of our African prehistory living semi-aquatically.
* They say it's why we're the only hairless apes, with webbed hands and an insulating layer of fat under our skin.
 *At 4 stars*

**Calvin Miller*** Doc! I don't know where you're at, but if it's anywhere near Muckingham then you need to get out RIGHT NOW!
 *At 5 stars*

**Harper Shaw*** Thanks so much for your help with the statue, we are in awe!We're taken aback by the statue itself, let alone the beam of light that it fired at the volcano. So much to discover about these peoples, like who on Earth were they?All looks pretty fishy, Wishy.

## Achievements

The **Bucket List** Achievement can be earned during Career Mode or Free Play. The 4 blue buckets can be found:

* Under the second tent to the left of the player's starting position. It is next to a blue crate and a wooden crate.
* Farther away on the left, under the tent that is next to the starting location of the metal scaffolding. It is under a table.
* Behind the Statue, on top of the hill. Under the farthest tent on the right, it is sitting on a storage bin.
* On top of the wooden scaffolding directly behind the Statue's head.

## Trivia

* The access equipment available in the level are: Ladder x1, Scaffolding x1.
* This level's gnome is located by turning and facing the volcano. On the right side of the road, there is a stone peak facing Mount Rushless; the gnome is next to the tree at the end of this peak.
* This is the first Desert-based map in PowerWash Simulator.
* This is the first non-Fairground map with dynamic content, that being the beam of light fired from the Statue's Helmet Crystal towards Mount Rushless once you've completed the level.
* Harper's RV, formerly owned by Aura Smith and Jenny Pebbles, can be seen next to the player's blue van at the entrance to the level.
* The developers decided against singular large subtasks to clean, due to the height of the Statue. They instead split the torso, chest, neck, and arm areas into individual slabs to reach "optimal ding satisfaction".
