Kraken Cleaning is an incremental game where the player controls a giant Kraken trying to remove pollution from the ocean. Trash gradually accumulates across the underwater area, and the Kraken uses its tentacles and supernatural abilities to collect it. Instead of simply throwing everything away, recovered materials become part of a progression system: rubbish is processed, converted into pearls, and used to unlock stronger cleaning abilities. As the ocean becomes cleaner, additional creatures appear and begin helping with the work.

Turn Trash Into Pearls

Plastic, metal, fabric, and other types of waste appear throughout the water. The Kraken collects these materials and sends them through recycling systems, eventually producing pearls that function as the main resource for upgrades. Later progression introduces trash refineries that process materials more efficiently, making it possible to handle larger quantities of pollution without relying entirely on manual collection.

Baby Kraken also participates in recycling and helps turn collected rubbish into useful resources. As more upgrades are purchased, the cleaning process becomes increasingly automated. What starts as manually grabbing individual pieces of trash gradually develops into a larger system where creatures and abilities handle parts of the cleanup on their own.

Abyssal Powers and Ocean Helpers

Progress unlocks abyssal abilities that can clear larger areas or interact with trash in different ways. These powers can also be upgraded, allowing the Kraken to clean faster as later sections introduce more waste.

Important parts of the progression include:

• Collecting plastic, metal, fabric, and other rubbish
• Recycling materials into pearls
• Buying and improving abyssal powers
• Unlocking trash refineries
• Freeing sea creatures trapped by pollution
• Baby Kraken helping with recycling
• Flying Fish opening containers such as bags, suitcases, and safes
• Whale collecting loose pearls
• Shark assisting during exploration of the Abyss
• Discovering ancient powers deeper underwater

Freeing animals therefore has a practical purpose. They become part of the cleanup operation and reduce the amount of work the Kraken needs to perform directly.

Cleaning Deeper Into the Abyss

The game gradually pushes the Kraken farther toward the bottom of the ocean. New areas introduce more pollution, different materials, and additional mechanics, while ancient powers discovered in the Abyss provide stronger ways to deal with the growing amount of trash.

Kraken Cleaning is structured around continuous improvement rather than traditional combat or numbered missions. Collecting waste creates resources, resources buy upgrades, upgrades make cleaning faster, and rescued creatures increase automation. The main objective is to keep expanding this system until heavily polluted sections of the ocean have been cleared and the underwater environment has been restored.
