Unpack boxes. No dialogue. Full life story. BAFTA for Best Narrative.
Witch Beam made a game where you unpack boxes after moving and somehow told a complete 21-year life story without a single word of dialogue. Each level is a new home β dorm room, first apartment, partner's place, divorce apartment, dream house β and the items you unpack reveal everything about the unnamed protagonist's life. The diploma that goes from the wall to a drawer. The stuffed animal that survives every move. It won the BAFTA for Best Narrative in 2022, beating Unpacking beat Inscryption and Life Is Strange. A game about putting things in drawers made people cry.
