Please be aware that this game currently still contains some AI generated (or refined how the devs are describing it) assets. So only buy and play if you are fine with that.

Knowing that the majority of the people who will enjoy this most are no doubt surrounded by absolute chaos in their real life’s is such an odd thing.

Come to my house! 😆 (Painting the bookcases and then reorganizing!)

"Librarian: Tidy Up the Arcane Library! is a single-player simulation. You need return scattered books to proper places in an Arcane Library." looks cool! can wishlist here & follow the devs @ArtRisingGame

They need to partner with Goodreads/Kindle cause I would love to organize my digital books this way.

Am I the only one who feels like labor simulation as a genre is some kind of grievous recession indicator? Like our labor irl is completely unfulfilling and insufficient so we spend our free time doing the same thing but magic to feel accomplished

Day one. I beat it on day one. I might have some kind of 'tism. Pretty sure that's a 'tism play on my part.

You know that this book worm would love that game

Sorry, I can't back this one, they used genAI.

Someone needs to mod this with the Dewey Decimal System.

My mind: "We should probably clean all this up." Me: "Go fuck yourself." Steam: "Would you like to play a game where you clean up magic books?" Me: "Just keep taking my money and tell me when it's enough!"

Anything to avoid chores in real life ?

ngl i’d pay good money to watch someone organize a messy library while i just sit there. is this the peak of cozy gaming or what 📚✨

The people playing this game better have spotless houses.

In highschool I used to work in a library shelving books. It was so satisfying. Definitely going to check this one out. Part of what made it satisfying was the pre sort. When loading up my cart I would loosely sort the books into clusters. Sometimes I would re-sort those clusters on the cart, then place them individually on the shelf. Best job ever

I just found this the other day and wishlisted!! Looks so chill and cozy!

Oh this tickles my brain so nicely

Yeah these type of simulation games are therapeutic in a sense so I can see why they get popular.

@nahimesamaVT Sua cara!

Cute, cozy, the perfect game for a rainy day

It's fun but once you get the magic unlocks it's almost too easy. Go for the "no magic" achievement for max fun.

I wonder if they have a good titles. Something like “Pyrokinetic ordnance deployment manual v. 3.2” which is actually just a fireball spell book.

Are You training AI libraries?

murder all indie game dev

a coworker of mine played it. she stayed up all night and got one hour of sleep because she wanted to finish it. she had 2 books in the wrong place and that’s it. took her like 5 or 6 hours she said

I find myself doing this in bookstores anyway, so might as well pay for the privilege of doing more of it.

Having a great indie game with AI assets is much better than having no game at all. Finished it in one sitting. Feels good.

@nahimesamaVT tua cara esse

Real library: "Please organize these books." Me: 😴 Magical arcane library in a video game: "Please organize these books." Me: 🔥🔥🔥

I played it and it was so good! I recommend it to everyone. Very satisfying indeed. 📚
