ItвЂ™s always a relief when you pull her cuddly plush pig from a box to see that she still has it. There are items she keeps for the long run вЂ“ cuddly toys, D&D figures, books вЂ“ but others fall away, and yet more crop up as she matures. However, getting everything to fit is an engrossing challenge, especially when she begins to live with other people and there is someone elseвЂ™s life to squeeze in. The pixel art is simple but brilliantly designed so youвЂ™re rarely stumped on what an item is.

You have to put your cutlery in the cutlery drawer you have to put your laptop somewhere accessible. You can place things where you choose, but certain objects have specific homes. You simply click on one to open it, then click on each object inside, choosing a suitable place to put it. At each stage, weвЂ™re given an isometric view of each room in her home and the piles of boxes waiting there.

We begin with her first solo bedroom as a child, cramming cardboard boxes full of toys and books, and we follow her from there, through her college years and into adulthood. Between 19 our unnamed narrator makes a number of house moves, and the player has to help her unpack in each new location. All of these emotions are beautifully and wordlessly explored in Unpacking.

Sometimes you find things you thought were long lost, sometimes painful memories are exhumed in the process. Often there are difficult choices about what to leave behind. Nothing forces you to assess the events of your life, and the effects theyвЂ™ve had on you, more than packing everything you own into boxes and then trying to find new places for them on the other side.

M oving home is such an intense and often melancholic experience.
