Handle With Care

Handle With Care is a short, atmospheric narrative game where you reconstruct objects and memories. One piece at a time.

Through puzzles and subtle storytelling, uncover what remains when the dust of a past life finally settles. You’ll piece together broken objects and moments: strawberry keychain from a Baguio trip, photo booth strip from a Timezone arcade date, a strawberry mug gifted by someone special, and a letter never read. 

Take your time. Some pieces are heavier than they look.

Story:
You’ve just moved into a new apartment for a new job, hoping to start fresh after a breakup and leaving behind a workplace that was suffocating. But when a damaged package arrives, you’re pulled back into the parts of your past you thought were long gone.

This game shows the quiet, everyday struggles of women and queers: the pressure to hide who you are, the fear of being seen in places that aren’t safe, and how that fear can turn love into a risk, making you feel small just for existing.

Author’s Note: 
Pls play on desktop!! :)

Playable web version has been updated. We polished a few things, some bug fixes(UI layering and boxes flickering), and added a feature(furniture tags) from our initial concept that we didn't get to include during the jam.
The original version we submitted for the jam is still available to download.
Thank you. Hope you enjoy our game :) - June 24, 2025
