Wilmot's Warehouse

released on Aug 28, 2019

Wilmot's Warehouse is a puzzle game about keeping a warehouse running in tip-top shape. You play as Wilmot, a hard working warehouse employee tasked with pushing, sorting and stacking a variety of products. Over time more and more truckloads of these products will arrive, gradually filling up the warehouse. How you arrange them all is entirely up to you - organize by color, type, the Dewey Decimal System, or some wild format that only you understand - it's all good! Just remember where you put everything, because when the service hatch opens, you'll need to find the things people want quickly, in order to earn the coveted Performance Stars required for all manner of labor-saving upgrades.

I started out thinking it was pretty good but the further you get into it and the more stuff piles up I started to find it pretty frustrating, maybe if I had a better organisation pattern from the beginning it would've been easier but so much stuff piles up so quickly it becomes very hard to sort through and by the time I decided to stop playing I could barely complete any orders.

A very lovely organization game to play with a buddy, the simple design and gameplay is so comfy. Two things tho, I wish the 'see next order' upgrade worked and that there was a better endgame / working endless mode

fun concept, kind of becomes a chore (duh). dunno why the lights are off in this warehouse

This game was pretty fun but they took it off gamepass before I finished, it was a satisfying game to play though

I have, quite frankly, never felt more alive than when I was coming up with complex storage schemes on the fly while I lagged one and a half truckloads behind, zig-zagging through narrow lanes like some kind of twisted demon of geometry. Ive learned I have precious talents (organizing blocks) that I could be contributing to society if I didnt have to waste my life doing much less intelligent work for a paycheck, me and Wilmot both.

I kind of hate this game but it hasn't left my mind since the very first time I tried it. It is hypnotic and somewhat relaxing despite also being crushingly difficult and often panic-inducing. There's an overtly ironic tone throughout the titular Warehouse that aims to satirize modern work culture, but more often than not it hits a little too close for comfort and winds up feeling soul-crushing. I'm really not sure what to make of this game, but I also often find myself coming back to it from time to time.
