Unboxathon announced, new “Unpacking meets Cookie Clicker” incremental game set to release this year on Steam

From Press Release:

Helsinki, Finland (April 16, 2025) – Solo developer EVIL CORP GAMES (also known as Skye) is overjoyed to officially announce wholesome incremental game Unboxathon, coming to Windows PC via Steam in 2025. Open mystery boxes and click your way to profit in ultra-satisfying gameplay.

You know your childhood plush is out there…but can you find it in this vast sea of cardboard boxes? Click to pop bubbles that “bloop” and drop mystery boxes as loot, open them up and rustle through packaging all in the aim of being reunited with the teddy that you hold dear.

Unboxathon is cute, cozy, and packed with more content than even the boxes themselves! With each unboxing, you’ll uncover shiny new pieces of loot that grow ever in value, ranging from pairs of comfy camo socks to a major music award and various magical artifacts.

Each box opening brings you closer to riches – and your plushie, of course – as the items you unearth can be sold for money. Spend, spend, spend on incremental upgrades including higher value boxes, gameplay-changing bubbles, and a whole host of other stat-boosting upgrades such as the number of bubbles spawning per second, chain reactions, ricochets and more.
