Official description

"First one or two player video game
with true "Pinball" action
from the makers of Hockey, Soccer & Volley"

Clean Sweep is a major, money-making break-through in coin-operated video games because it can be played by one or two people, can be set to award free games for high scores and allows
either 3 or 5 balls for each player. The number of balls and the free game award are both operator selectable. Players try to erase a field of dots by directing a bouncing ball with a joystick-control led "paddle" that is moved horizontally across the bottom of the screen. Each time the ball passes over a dot, the dot gets erased and the player gets a point. If he erases all the dots, he scores a "clean sweep" and can win a free game. No other video game matches the fast action and player challenges of "Clean Sweep." Put it in your best locastions and sweep in bigger profits.

Description

In Clean Sweep, players control a paddle at the bottom of the screen and hit a ball into a field of dots. The field of dots are arranged as a 14x14 grid and each time the ball hits a dot it disappears and the player earns points to their score. The ball will keep going in the direction of its shot until it ricochets off the sides or top of the screen and returns back to the bottom of the screen where the player either hits it back up into the field of dots or misses the falling ball and loses a ball. Players are given a total of three or five balls depending on the setting. The goal of the game is to clear all of the dots and get a clean sweep.
