On November 2 you'll be able to experience the joy of sorting through boxes in a new home thanks to Unpacking. Developed by Witch Beam, known for the ace twin-stick shooter Assault Android Cactus. A very different game to what they previously made of course, nice to see developers branch out.
"Unpacking is a zen game about the familiar experience of pulling possessions out of boxes and fitting them into a new home. Part block-fitting puzzle, part home decoration, you are invited to create a satisfying living space while learning clues about the life you’re unpacking. Over the course of eight house moves, you are given a chance to experience a sense of intimacy with a character you never see and a story you’re never told."

You'll be able to buy it from Humble Store and Steam.
I moved into my current place 7 years ago. And right beside me is a box that was packed during the last move that still hasn't been unpacked...
And it's not the only unpacked box... 😅
The good news is I unpacked the most important/used computer stuff. 👍
Based on that the game must be bit more fun than actual unpacking.
