Game details

The Sorting Bureau

A cozy sorting game set in a quiet Tokyo workshop. Clients bring you boxes of clutter: buttons, coins, gears, stamps. Sort them, group them, and put everything back in its place, to satisfying ASMR clicks. No timers. Mistakes cost nothing. Just the joy of tidying up.

They bring their boxes and ask for help. Sort through their things and you'll get to know them a little.Your Evening RitualNew boxes show up every morning. New clients, new items, new sorting rules.
