Unpacking
This is ostensibly a chill puzzle game centered around organizing different living spaces. Every stage of Unpacking gives you a home of some sort, be it a college dorm or a multi-room apartment, and asks you to unpack belongings in moving boxes into the limited space of every room. But on a deeper level, the game is telling a story about a woman growing up and going through the stages of life. By paying attention to the new living spaces, new or lost items, and signs of other people she’s cohabitating with, you get a picture of the life being lived. It’s a touching story centered around an endlessly satisfying puzzle game.
