Unpacking is a zen block-fitting puzzle told entirely through possessions: across eight house moves from 1997 to 2018, you pull items out of boxes and find a home for each one - and in doing so, you quietly piece together the story of an unseen life, its relationships and its setbacks. Meditative, wordless and about 4-5 hours.

The achievements (all hidden) split into the eight level completions - one per move / year - and a lovely set of secret interactions: little toy moments and specific placements the game rewards you for noticing (make the mannequin dab, write an equation in fridge magnets, put the toaster somewhere it really shouldn't go). Nothing is missable - every home is replayable from the photo album, so you can go back and tick off any you passed.
