Unpacking

Unpacking is a relaxing puzzle game about unpacking boxes and organizing a new home. Calm, emotional, and beautifully detailed.

[url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3471052113][h3]Rating: ★ ★ ★ ★ ☆[/h3][/url] Unpacking is one of those quiet experiences that sticks with you before, during, and long after you’ve finished. It’s not a loud game, or a fast one. But it’s meaningful in the kind of way that sneaks up on you. This is a story told entirely through objects—through the things a woman owns as she moves from one stage of life to another. From her childhood bedroom to her first apartment, and beyond. There’s no dialogue, no cutscenes. Just boxes, rooms, and memories. And somehow, that’s more than enough. Every item tells you something. What she keeps, what she outgrows. The things that follow her from place to place. The ones that vanish. The ones that make you smile when you see them again. It’s a quiet kind of storytelling, but deeply personal—and at times, surprisingly emotional. It’s not just what she owns, but where she can put things that tells you about her life. Some spaces feel open and easy. Others feel cramped, like she’s fitting her world into someone else’s. There are moments where you need to rearrange furniture that’s already there—already his—just to make her life fit. That says more than any voiceover ever could. And when you move her back into her childhood home? It’s both nostalgic and a little cringe. In the best way. You feel how far she’s come—and how far she still has to go. If you love storytelling that trusts the player to notice the small things, Unpacking is something special. It’s gentle, thoughtful, and quietly powerful. -- 𖹭 [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3471052113][u]Click here[/u][/url] 𖹭 to understand the star rating.

Positives: - Beautiful Art - Nice Mechanics - Can be played with an empty mind. - Do as the name says Negatives: - SHORT , like 3-4 hour content. I was super disappointed, like "is that all?" - Ovepriced for what it offers. - Many of the top reviews are super misleading and reaching too much. Hands up for those who read the reviews: Many "big" reviews act like this game is so long and you spent so many hours on it and it has some kind of story behind it. => You don't and it doesn't really have any story mentioned anywhere. You must really imagine what could the story be, something you don't do when you are dead tired and want to unwind. Like, If you don't read the reviews, you can just play the game empty-minded and go on with your life. Personally, I was super disappointed as the reviews really hyped it up, especially outside of steam too and like a fool believed them. How you spent 11+ hours on this game and you don't mention anywhere that you are basically replaying it? In the end: Want an organization game? It's the game for you. But don't buy it full price. Wait for a deep discount. Like more than 50% off.

Unpacking isn't filled with action or ultra-impressive graphics. Instead, it's a unique and beautiful narrative-driven game told in quiet tones. No cutscenes. No dialogue. No character models. You unpack cardboard boxes filled with items and at the same time, you unpack the life and story of a woman through the important stages of her journey. Her personal belongings give you subtle clues about who she is and what matters to her. You get to know her over the years, through multiple moves, in a calm, cozy, and unexpectedly affectionate way. A heartwarming and unforgettable story for those who are willing to look a little deeper. I loved it so much. ♥

it is a very chill game, with no time limit at all. It is also very nice that as you pay attentions to the details, you can grab the stories while doing all these unpacking. I get excited when I see the progress on the "character" progress in life through the layout of the house, and the things that he/she packed into other state of the life.

This was a cute, simple, short and calming game. You have to take items out of the box and place it where appropriate. Not everything belongs in any room and you don't want stuff on the floor, but otherwise there's a lot of room to organize in. I only wish it was a little longer, it felt maybe a little too short but then again I have a tendency to dive into games and let myself be absorbed by them if I'm invested enough. I do recommend the game to anyone who just wants a cozy game to be distracted by for a handful of hours.

This is a very sweet short game. You move houses and unpack items in different locations as you see the character grow up and her style change, how some of the childhood memories like teddy bears are there the whole way through. You will be organizing and placing items whevever you feel like they belong. It's a cosy game that can keep you busy for a short while and is worth to buy if it's on a good sale !

this game makes me wanna clean up my room for some reason and declutter everything but so far a relaxing game to play.

I don't even know when i finished the game, it's just so cute , and i was playing it in the same time as my sister, while casually chatting . Next we knew , we were done with the game . Cute, relaxing (goooooood for ADHD) xD Worth buying.

Very relaxing game. There's no right or wrong way of doing things. Just wish the game was longer....

loved this game! while short it very relaxing to play and great if you catch it on sale. its also easy to 100% Unpacking if you like to do that sorth of thing.

Game is 10 dollars for 4 hours of gameplay... Wayyy too expensive. I didn't feel like there was enough things to do for being that much. Also, if you have problems with things being cluttered, DO NOT play this game. It gave me way too much anxiety for not being able to put things away, because there's just an unlimited amount of stuff. Also, just me, but this feels like a self insert kind of game for the creator(s), which bothers me, but i think it's a personal thing

Most calming game ever for when you're burnt out (especially after exams). Some of the items in this game did stress me out to unpack in the right places, so much so that i probably lost some years off my life span but overall i would recommend this game a lot, its so calming. Please can new room unpacking levels come out though.

Plus for relaxing and unpacking dopamine. A time to feel the urge to organise and classify home items as it should. I found myself spending hours playing this, it's truly soothing for the brain. Works great on Windows, Mac and handheld systems.

This game is great, it's something to take your mind off of whats happening in you life and take things out of boxes.

Real fun, relaxing game. Wish there was a bit more level wise, or even DLC you could buy. Still a very fun and cute, relaxing game with an interesting story underneath it.

Difficult to recommend. It feels like it has an underlying narrative, but it's vague and thin. It does what it does OK, but at the end I felt like "was that it?" It's not the length, but the shallowness of what is there. Perhaps my expectations were too high.

Extremly Relaxing!!!, Good game if you enjoy short, games with satisfying soundtracks and endings

A yawnsome, frustrating drag whose difficulty comes exclusively from trying to actually identify the objects because they are so badly drawn. I can easily identify that a printer goes in the office, but a mid-sized box of indeterminate contents that can only go in a specific location of a specific room? It's not fun; it's not chilled; it's not cosy; it's tedious and frustrating in the extreme. If I paid $1 for this game, I'd consider the price about right, and I would already have stopped playing.

Nice little game. Nothing too crazy, just a simple, relaxing game about moving stuff out of boxes. I wouldn't say this is a game worth the whole $20 dollars, so catch it on sale if you do want to play it.

I think its fun and cute, it seems overwhelming sometimes but box after box and its done in no time! i just know i'll wish for more if i ever finish the game, i've wanted to play since i watched Jay from the Kubz Scouts play <3 it reminds me that time goes on and while we get older we were still kids once, and we can still grow up and stay the same person not an "adult"

Unpacking is a really sweet game, and I would definitely recommend getting it if it is on sale. Whilst really sweet, and there is lots of depth to be found if you pay close attention to the items you're unpacking and where they can/can't go, gameplay is fairly limited and can be 100%-ed quickly. It is also a little frustrating not knowing what the item you're unloading is, but hey, you get there in the end (some kind of encyclopedia of items would be really cute, with descriptions of their importance to the main character).

Cute and wholesome game. I like how the game tells you a story through household items alone. There are a lot of clever subtleties in the things you unpack and the houses themselves that tell us about the characters, even without ever having seen them. Kind of unique and makes us wonder about our own stuff. What items we will keep with us throughout our lives no matter where we may move, and how they reflect our personalities.

sooooo cute and fun! as someone who loves organizing things, this was actually such a nice game to be able to play.

Loved this game, except I wish it was longer it only gave me about 3 hours of play time. I think it would have been cool if there were more achievements or a different story lines for example the story of the girlfriend.

let's face it, this game is short. I 100%ed it in just over 4h, so part of me is glad I waited to buy it on sale, but: the life story you piece together is adorable the little details you find are precious it's a very chill experience overall. so at the end of the day, I'm glad I played it. do I wish it were longer? yes. do I think it should get a DLC? absolutely. as far as I understand it, this title has been created by a small team and they did wonderfully! the controls are snappy, the game is very forgiving when it comes to placing things, and the achievements are fun to get.

A fun little game with replayable value once in awhile :) It's really satisfying to unpack the boxes and the storyline was cute! But honestly wouldn't have purchased if this wasn't on 50% discount, so I'd only recommend when there's a sale

A silly little game to satisfy the itch in your brain that craves perfection, Unpacking is a puzzle game all about what the name entails. Throughout the game, you're given many different scenarios as you live through the character's life and different living conditions. The player has one goal: unpack. These scenarios vary between how many boxes and items the player needs to open and unpack, and how many rooms the player will need to go through to finish the job. And while you might not put a toothbrush in the living room or shampoo in the bedroom, you're given a bit of freedom on how you want the rooms to look with the items given. While moving and unpacking is a heavy chore to do, Unpacking takes those frustrations and turns it into a satisfying and unique experience.

So cute and so fun! It's not always clear where I'm supposed to put things and I need to look up where things need to be, but other than that it's pretty straight forward and I enjoy it a lot :D

A very enjoyable game about unpacking! The environmental storytelling is great but it is quite a short game so getting it on sale is a good idea :)

Really fun little game. I only wish there were hints for the puzzle. I really enjoyed the puzzle aspect but I ended up turning it off because there was one object, I just couldn't figure out what it was, I tried just about every spot in the house and couldn't get it in the right spot. It wasn't uncommon for me to be unsure what an item was, but I could usually get the gist of it or trial and error until I found the right spot. I do appreciate that I could turn off the puzzle so I didn't get stuck entirely, though. I like how it seems like we're following one person through the years (so far), with the recurring items. It kinda feels like I'm learning about this person through what they have. Dunno if I'm crazy but it feels like they're getting better at packing as time goes on, having more similar items together and items in the right rooms.

I 100%'ed and replayed this game a few times, it's very calming, relaxing and beautiful. It tells a story incredibly subtly, in a way that you really feel attached to the main character. Definitely pick it up when it's on sale, I think at full price it's a bit overpriced but still an amazing experience.

The perfect showcase of the organising game. Short but cute, enjoyed every minute while playing it. Also love the hidden narrative. Long live the girls.

Aside from being a cute and relaxing experience, unpacking is like watching journey about growth, about how things change, and how much of that can reflect on the space we live in. It's a lovely experience that you can enjoy in just a few hours.

I love love love Unpacking because it's amazing to watch her story unfold through her belongings and how she organizes her space before you change it up, I think the game is super satisfying and relaxing to play, but most of all it makes me very happy to see her grow, thank you!

Such a sweet game! Very relaxing and calming even though I got mad at the flashing items when they were not in the right place. I liked how there was a story line throughout even though it was kinda in the background.

Love the story of this game. It's amazing how you're able to understand it with just the smallest details. It is rather expensive for what the game really offers though, so I recommend getting it on sale.

May not have the longest game play but I really enjoy how this game can be relaxing but still make me think. It's not without story either. The ending is so sweet.

I will forever be seeking the high of playing this game for the first time. Nothing else has been able to scratch that same itch. I was devastated to find out that there's no plan for a sequel or any DLC 😔

I put off buying this game for like.. 2 years. But I recently bought it and I'm in love with it. It's worth it, people.

Cute little game, can get overwhelming at parts but overall enjoyable experience

this game is super cute and whimsy!! very easy to perfect etc... its relaxing too!! the only thing is, it's a quick game so i would recommend buying it whilst on discount c:!!!

Such a cozy, relaxing game. enjoyed every minute of it. We need more games like that. Using subtle, barely noticeable details that tell the entire story through environmental storytelling, so brilliant.

its really nice and relaxing, perfect for when youre stressed and theres so many hidden details to find its sm fun ^^

I've been eyeing this game for awhile, but I was hesitant because it seemed pretty boring. I got it when it went on sale and honestly? It was engrossing. It was really satisfying to put things away and decorate, and I loved reading between the lines of what stage of life the MC was at based on where they were moving and what was being unpacked. If you're looking for a pleasant game to unwind to, this is a great pick.

Fun short organizer game on the character's lifestyle moving through life.

Despite the fact I recommend this game, it makes me annoyed. Why is it the game is so annoyingly obsessed with telling me exactly where to place things, why can't the laptop be on the OFFICE desk? No I'm not talking about when it's for narrative purposes, but it annoys me, I came into this game expecting an organizing game and got a puzzle game where i had to fit the pieces where the game wants. Yes there is more freedom then a lot of other games but it frustrates me sometimes. Despite that, it is only my personal problem as I am a control freak and just wish there was more freedom. The game is well made, I like the subtle narration and lore behind everything. I love the constant references to D&D, it's a good, well made game with amazing graphics.

Relaxing game to settle down with after a long day. I really enjoyed playing this game. I really felt connected with the character as she grew up and i literally got to unpack her life. As a sapphic girl myself, the ending made me smile from ear to ear. 10/10 game, would recommend to anybody looking for something to wind down or calm your mind. If you like decorating and organising, this game is for you. The puzzle aspect isn't too difficult but at times it can be frustrating trying to find the correct places for things to go but a lot of the time it doesn't matter.

such a cute game but shorter than expected. Would be cool if there were different characters to follow :D

very satisfying and very surprised there was a little bit of a story behind all the unpacking. definitely recommend this game when in sale because while the game is very enjoying, it's not worth full price, especially there's no real replayability to it.
