The Modern Art Museum chapter in Crime Scene Cleaner offers one of the most mechanically engaging and eerie environments for players to tidy up. Navigating through the surreal exhibits requires careful attention to detail to uncover hidden areas and valuable objects scattered across the gallery floors. Achieving a perfect deception score requires finding every hidden secret and collecting all the elusive cassette tapes tucked away in the museum wings.
Cracking the Secret Tape Room and Maze Wall
In the specialized tape room, players can spot a mysterious yellow tape placed high up along the wall structure. To reach this item, you must carefully stack and interact with the nearby transparent tape boxes or utilize your portable cleaning ladder. Activating this specific hidden tape triggers a mechanical sequence that opens a sliding false wall located directly to its left.
Further into the museum, players will encounter a complex maze room containing a peculiar arrangement of old televisions stacked in a corner. Interacting with these TV monitors allows you to change their screen colors to open a hidden passageway. The correct sequence requires setting the upper television row from left to right to pink, grey, and green, while configuring the bottom row to orange, blue, and grey.
Unlocking the Hidden Katana Weapon
Once you successfully solve the television color puzzle in the maze room, a hidden vault door will automatically slide open to the right side. Stepping inside this secret compartment reveals a legendary katana sword waiting to be claimed by thorough cleaners. Picking up the weapon triggers a spooky event where multiple mannequins suddenly emerge from the gallery walls.
Although these creepy mannequins appear intimidating, they do not cause any harm to your character as you clear the area. Slicing through all the figures opens the exit door and prompts a special mannequin to hand over the Economy of Pain cassette tape. Keeping this sword allows players to quickly destroy fragile supply boxes throughout the remainder of the assignment.
Tracking Down Misplaced Museum Exhibits
Achieving a perfect operational grade requires returning several out-of-place pieces of historical artwork back to their designated pedestals. Players often struggle to find a small quadratic painting hidden discreetly behind the miniature T-Rex sculpture located left of the central display. Another easily missed painting sits silently at the threshold leading directly into the triceratops room.
Valuable sculptures are also scattered across various rooms and require manual relocation back to the main statue galleries. A heavy ring sculpture can be discovered resting atop a display case inside the primary tape room area. Additionally, a missing basketball sculpture is trapped inside one of the hoops in the maze room and belongs inside the sculpture gallery.
Locating the Hidden Cassette Tracks
Music collectors will find several distinct cassette tapes distributed throughout the massive museum floor plans. The Kokko Kann track rests quietly inside the red exhibition room positioned right next to an old static radio unit. Meanwhile, the Garbage Band tape appears inside the bandstand zone after the overhead lights dramatically shut off.
Exploring the upper corridors provides access to the rare Roma track, which sits directly on the floor in front of a crate containing evidence. Finally, players can retrieve the hidden Economy of Pain track only after completing the mannequin slicing challenge. Collecting all these items ensures a comprehensive completion record for this intricate museum cleanup mission.
