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.

ME ENCANTO!!!!!! Necesito que saquen mas mapas, mas libros, mas colores, mas de todo :3 La verdad es muy relajante y me todo el tiempo para hacer todas las misiones... Espero que pronto saquen un nuevo mapa :3
As someone who works in a library, this was such a calming and cathartic experience. I got to sort books without being bothered. The key ingredient was the added fantastical element that drew me into a world I always wished to occupy: the arcane library.
I was expecting this to be a puzzle game (it's even tagged as such). Maybe you would have to figure out some arcane Dewey decimal system? Maybe the books aren't clear where they need to go (missing covers? book titles in elvish? who knows), and you need to deduce their proper placement from context clues? But no. There is absolutely no puzzle to it at all. The first quarter of the game is just a "find the hidden object" game as you scour the floor for matching books. Then, once you have some spells online, it's just a matter of repeatedly casting the same spells and tediously walking back and forth across the room to place them. If what you want is a mindless game to play while you listen to a podcast or something, maybe this is it? But it's not a puzzle game *at all*, and shouldn't be tagged as such.
I...MUST....SAY I am appalled that these people used AI maybe 2 times with art and a couple times with text. It's even a double hit to me because my entire mother's side of my family was killed by a drunk LLM driver. How DARE they! Who do they think they ARE the Pope?! If they can't type proper English they should enroll in advanced 5-year English programs. And if they can't draw they should enroll in an advanced Art Degree program for 8 years. It just makes me so sick to my stomach. /s "AI SLOPPERS" - get a MF life. Get over it. GFY. PS - wtg Librarian devs. Great job!

Library is too small. More levels please
So calming and fun with a touch of humor.
好玩,强迫症狂喜,没有强迫症的大概会觉得很无聊。但什么叫我打了九个小时纯手搓的存档没了:(
Took me 13,5 hrs to do a non-magic run, I unlocked the chests at 2955, 3000, 3065 and 3071 books, so basically I didn't use them. Let me tell you, I had a FANTASTIC time and I will do it again. Just me, the library and the books, walking around randomly, no strategy just vibes. It was so great!
I want to like this game, I really do. I tried but the game has major issues. The difference between this glowing because it's correct or incorrect looks pretty darn similar. I'm not colorblind at all, but this game makes me want to get my eyes checked because it should glow "red" when it's wrong, but I do not see any red.... at all. I'm like well I guess it didn't place well because the glow wasn't so bright? Placement is for debate. A book about love should be in romance right? Wrong. Where should it go, no clue, just not romance. I'm sure the game gets more enjoyable once you unlock a perk, but unlocking that perk is a slog that may not be worth it to you. The game is a lot... a lot. Take a pic of the legend because you will be constantly going back to it. Which is so stupid. It makes a tedious game borderline infuriating.
