How This Tier List Works
There is no verified public database of every squishy, shelf, upgrade level, or ability stat. A fake character or item tier list would be less useful than a clear decision framework. This page ranks strategy categories by how often they help a player finish cleanup routes faster and with fewer mistakes.
Upgrade and Strategy Tiers
Save time every run
Any upgrade or habit that reduces travel, repeated actions, or route resets belongs at the top because it affects nearly every cleanup cycle.
Capacity and consistency
Capacity and reliable handling are strong when they prevent return trips or action mistakes, especially after you already know a route.
Situational choices
Choices that only help in a specific zone or playstyle can be valuable, but they should wait until your common bottlenecks are solved.
Cosmetic or low-impact only if verified
Cosmetic or very narrow effects should be last unless the game itself verifies a mechanical benefit. Public sources did not confirm cosmetic stats.
Why S Tier Means Time Saved Every Run
Cleanup games repeat the same categories of action: move, identify, pick up, carry or switch, squish, place, and move again. Anything that reduces those actions every run compounds quickly. Even a small improvement can beat a flashy upgrade if it applies to every route.
How to Use This List
After each run, ask which delay happened most often. If you walked too much, choose a time saver. If you returned too often, consider capacity. If you misclicked, dropped, or switched badly, improve interaction consistency. If a choice only helps a rare case, treat it as B tier until your main route is stable.
FAQ
Short answers for common player questions, based only on public information that can be checked.
Is this an official tier list?
No. It is a strategy tier list built from the public game description and general cleanup-loop logic, not an official item ranking.
Why is there no character or item tier list?
A complete public item database was not available, so this site avoids inventing item names, stats, or rarities.
