What Is Haven Restored?
Haven Restored is a calming cleaning and restoration simulation game developed by Perseverance Games, released on June 23, 2026 on Steam. Instead of combat or time pressure, the game invites you to methodically restore neglected spaces through hands-on cleaning — scrubbing, polishing, organizing — while uncovering the quiet story of a life unfolding over time.
The game blends satisfying restoration gameplay with environmental storytelling, creating a meditative experience that rewards patience and attention to detail. Steam Achievements and save-anytime support make it accessible for casual play sessions.

Tips and Tricks
- Work systematically. Clean one section at a time rather than jumping around. You'll feel more satisfied and miss fewer hidden details.
- Check every nook. Important story items are often tucked into corners or under clutter. Clean thoroughly before moving on.
- Use the right tool. Different surfaces require different tools. Experiment to find the most effective approach for each mess.
- Zoom in for precision. Some small objects are hard to interact with at default zoom. Get close for detailed work.
- Don't rush. Haven Restored is designed as a relaxing experience. There's no time limit — enjoy the process.
- Read everything. Notes and documents you find while cleaning contain the game's story. Skipping them means missing the narrative core.
- Track your achievements. The game includes Steam Achievements. Some require specific cleaning actions or finding all hidden items in a level.
