Pick Pack Pup

This puzzler doubles as a satire of zero-hour warehouse jobs. Your canine protagonist must package items by swapping objects until three or more similar items are adjacent – but you need to take care since they get packed automatically, potentially leaving stray objects in corners. You’re against the clock, too: the bottom of the production line is periodically trashed (and your pay docked) as an incentive to work faster. Interspersed with hand-drawn comic strips, the story mode regularly adds new wrinkles – encouraging you to avoid waste by waiting until the last second to ship a full row, for example. A season-one standout.
