Hey Unpackers!
Its that time of the year - the Steam Awards nominations are now open.
Weve received a lot of love and kind words from you all about Unpacking, and nothing makes us happier than hearing how much you enjoyed the gameplay, the sound design, or the ever-growing chick plush collection.
Unpacking is a game inspired by the experience of my partner moving in with me, and discovering the story behind every item he brought with him. Plus, a love of organizing, of course. The actual act of moving and unpacking can be a stressful one, but we hope this game made it a more relaxing and reflective experience.
If you feel the same, it would mean so much if you would nominate Unpacking for this years Steam Awards for the Sit Back and Relax Award. It only takes a few clicks to do so, and it would mean so much to us.
But no matter what, thank you for being a part of this journey!

Unpacking is a zen puzzle game about the familiar experience of pulling possessions out of boxes and fitting them into a new home. Part “item Tetris”, 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.
