![]() ![]() I don't want to spoil it for you, because it's such a gentle but ongoing journey of discovery, so you should just go and get the free demo from Steam instead. The very bestest thing about the demo is realising more about the person you are unpacking. So, pyjamas can go in the wardrobe, but they can also go on the pillow because that's where a lot of people put their jammies ready for bedtime. This isn't at all stressful, though, and really only requires that you think about how it makes sense to organise a room anyway. There is a very basic fail/win state to get over, in that if, once you've unpacked everything, some things are sort of in the wrong place, they will be outlined in red and you can't move on till you've found a better home for them. Where can I put the spatula? I want to put both the kettle and the biscuit jar on the side, pls, oh no, the toaster.

Packing is hell, but Unpacking sort makes me want to move house so I can unpack. Unpacking does a very accurate representation of this, whilst also being a very satisfying and sweet game of Tetris-with-stuff. When you start unpacking these boxes, you get to enjoy being suddenly ambushed by a load of pants or a scented candle lurking in a box of plugs and batteries. At this point you shove everything into wherever it will fit and have a lot of boxes that say 'GENERAL' or 'STUFF'.
