About
A mischievous fairy has left the once-majestic library in utter chaos. The principal’s word is law: "You are forbidden from leaving until all 3,072 books are returned to their rightful places!" In the silent, mystical archive, your long battle against the mountain of books begins.
Categorization: From Destructive Magic and The Travels of Otherworld to Romance Novels—use titles and cover designs as clues to transport a massive collection to the correct sections.
Massive Volume: With 3,072 books to organize, the task may seem overwhelming at first. However, as you stack each book, you will unlock magical abilities that drastically boost your efficiency.
Visual Satisfaction: There is a special joy in seeing the books that once cluttered the floor return to the shelves, slowly revealing the hidden floor beneath. As chaos transforms into perfect order, you’ll experience an unparalleled sense of satisfaction.
Strategic Efficiency: How will you combine your unlocked abilities? What order will you tackle the mess? The strategic fun lies in your decision-making, as your tactics can lead to a dramatic increase in workflow.
Immersive Atmosphere: The library’s ambient sound and BGM change dynamically; as shelves fill up, the acoustic resonance grows stronger, drawing you deeper into the world.
The Principal’s Strict Evaluation: Your precision is being monitored. The Principal’s evaluation shifts in real-time based on how many rows are "correctly shelved" according to the rules. Accuracy and speed are the keys to a perfect score—and your escape.
Assemble: A spell that summons other volumes of the same series directly to your hands.
Insight: Highlights other volumes of the same series, making them easy to spot even in a disorganized pile.
Auto-Shelving: A spell that instantly places the books in your hands onto the shelves in perfect order.

Awesome indie game - worth every penny. Cozy, charming, and with a few funny bugs. I initially wanted to go for the no-magic run, but after 8 hours I remembered that I have a job, so I ended up using the magic skills. On the flip side, it did keep the game from getting tedious. Well recommended.
Relajante y estresante a la vez. Lastima que se hace mas mecanico confirme pasa el tiempo y luego de 4 o 5 veces pierdes el interes.
Did I spend hours tidying a library instead of tidying my room? Yes, yes I did
This is my very favorite game of all time! I was a little confused at first but I love the challenge of figuring out which books go on which shelves. I truly hope the developers will add more levels to this game, I will be watching for them Thank you for such an interesting and unique game!
It's great for those who revel in organization games. And when one is also into the realms of the magical world then I'd recommend you give this game a go. I really enjoy it and find it a very relaxing.
Slow at first but after I got a few spells it went much faster. Very relaxing and satisfying!
A sometimes frustrating but oftentimes soothing game of organization. Sort by color, shape or subject as you please. You may find it scratches an itch you didn't even know you had.
Does what it says on the tin. A relaxing game about putting books on shelves, nothing more. Gets a little grindy towards the end, but the game offers conveniences at a nice pace. Great controller support. Plays great on Steam Deck. The book titles are priceless. "The Psychology of Prioritizing Gaming Over Tidying Your Room". 🫣
i love this game! i cant wait to see what updates come next!
Such a fun game that is easily something you can pour hours into getting lost in organising, for my first run I am using no magic and it still didn't become tiring!
