Play OverviewPlay Overview

Wilmot's Warehouse (2019) is a game for people who like to organise things. You are in charge of a warehouse and must manage 100s of items of stock. Identical square boxes are labelled with rudimentary icons. On your own or with another player, you must decipher what each icon depicts and invent ways to categorise them. Customers then appear who want specific combinations of products and you have limited time to find and deliver them.

You can play on your own or with another person. Either way, what starts as a game about organising things soon turns into a challenge of categorisation. You need to decide, for example, whether the gloves go with the winter things like snowflakes and sledges, or with the clothing items.

The simplicity slowly gives way to more and more items to organise and you are forced to make compromises in your groupings. With another person you have to talk to each other to decide which items go where, and agree on your joint approach so you can find things when you need them.

Our examiner, Jo Robertson, first checked Wilmot's Warehouse 4 years ago. It was re-examined by Andy Robertson and updated 5 months ago.
