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.

Finally been waiting for months for this game! Thank you developers for bringing this to mobile and tablet platform!!! ❤️
Loved the game on PC and having it on mobile as well is a delight, my only complaint is about the performance, for a pixel art puzzle game it heats up my phone more than if I play Dead Cells for example (my specs are 4GB RAM & Snapdragon processor). Hopefully the game will receive some optimizations to fix the issue...
There is an option to remove the puzzle aspect! Go from 75% to no pressure visual pleasing (and audio) organization game by selecting the place items anywhere option (disables achievements). The puzzle parts can be a bit frustrating when you are uncertain what to do with an item that doesn't have a home. But persist...

Such a CUTE relaxing game. There's something so satisfying about organizing everything. I think there great potential to grow as well.
