Spellbound & Shelved
by needmoar.games

A wizard-academy library has vanished under its own books. Hire gnomes, unlock shelves, and let the tidying run itself — a cozy idle game about turning magical chaos into calm, one neatly filed spellbook at a time.

20% of its raters rank it in the top 30% of their library, 47% somewhere in the middle, and 33% in the bottom 40%. The most common placement is the 50–60% bracket, where 6 of its 15 raters put it.

Dear Esther is an adventure game tagged Walking Simulator, Exploration, Adventure and Mystery. #117 of 288 in Walking Simulator, #267 of 550 in Mystery, #788 of 1,485 in Exploration.

Players who rank Dear Esther highly also tend to love Portal 2, Garry's Mod and BioShock™, more than the average player does, and its fans turn down Dino D-Day, Little Racers STREET and 112 Operator harder than everybody else.

57 players on needmoar.games own Dear Esther, and it was last duelled 1 day ago. Every new duel moves the score, so this page updates as players rank it.
