This is a very simple, one-room Adventuron game with a single puzzle. You have decide what clothes to wash in order to flush a ghost out of a washing machine. The washing machine is in a graveyard and the clues as to which clothes to wash are on a trio of gravestones.

This premise raises all sorts of questions. Never mind about why washing clothes of a particular colour (and not just any old colour) would draw a ghost out of a washing machine; the question foremost in my mind is, how do you operate a washing machine in a graveyard? Presumably there are water pipes and electrical cables trailing all the way back to your house.

Once I'd worked out what the game expected of me, it became a matter of working out the clues on the gravestones and washing the right three items. Some reviewers got it right away, but I found the last of the three clues (on the marble gravestone) rather ambiguous and it took me eight goes to beat the game. Depending on your interpretation, I think there are at least six right answers to that final clue.

Anyway, it was fun and silly.
