Comment: WP:TOOSOON - game was just released 3 days ago and there is no real review yet. The independent sources are a brief review of the demo on Gamespew (not sure if this is a reliable source but maybe) and another of the demo on Game Rant. The third source is an interview with the developer on Game Rant. This is not sufficient to fulfil the Wikipedia criteria for notability - see WP:GNG. I recommend waiting a few months and resubmitting with better sources if the game receives more reviews. Lijil (talk) 03:42, 24 June 2025 (UTC)

Parcel Simulator is a postage management simulator game developed and published by Dansan Digital.[1] It was released on Steam on 21 June, 2025.[2]
Gameplay
[edit]Gameplay consists of sorting parcels through manual and automated methods in a warehouse. Players can construct belt conveyor systems and incorporate scanners which automatically sort parcels based on different criteria. Parcels are then approved or denied based on the criteria. Players are rewarded with in game money for correct parcel submissions, which can be used to purchase in game items such as automation tools and cosmetic items. The game has been described as "Papers Please meets Moving Out".[3]
Development
[edit]Dan, the sole developer of the game, was inspired to make a game about postage management after watching a YouTube video about an Amazon sorting facility.[4] He also got ideas from a friend who worked at a parcel sorting facility as well as from border control TV shows.[5] Before the full game was released, a free demo version of the game was released in February 2025, and was removed shortly before the game's release.[6]
