From Press Release:
Today, Humble Games and developer Witch Beam launched their award-winning game, Unpacking, for PC, Switch, & Xbox One!
To celebrate, the team has released a brand new trailer here. Humble will also be hosting an Extra Life charity stream supporting UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospitals from 9am – 10pm PT today, which will include a launch celebration for Unpacking with Witch Beam developers Wren and Tim joining at 8pm PT – fans can tune in here.
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.
KEY FEATURES:
-
Unpack a home – from a single bedroom to an entire house
-
Meditative gameplay with no timers or scores
-
Explore domestic environments with all their nooks and crannies while you stack plates, hang towels, and arrange bookshelves
-
Discover a character’s story through the items that come with her to each new home (and the items that get left behind)
-
Soundtrack by BAFTA award-winning composer and audio director Jeff van Dyck
