A chaotic couch co‑op that tests friendships
Moving Out is a couch co-op moving simulator. Developed by SMG Studio and Devm Games, it tasks players with relocating furniture from homes to trucks under time pressure, with or without friends. Think Overcooked, but your tools are couches and refrigerators, and your motivation is sheer, unpredictable physics.

Moving Out brings endearing chaos and cooperative comedy to the couch co-op genre. Team it with friends, aim for gold, and embrace the messy, joyful mayhem. It has accessible features and enough hidden content to keep moving fun for a long while. Just don’t play on an empty couch.
Let the mayhem ensue
Inside Moving Out, you join Smooth Moves as a certified mover navigating wacky, over-the-top levels across Packmore. The strategy is deceptively simple: grab, carry, toss to load required objects in the time limit. Local multiplayer enables up to four players, intensifying chaos and cooperation through split-path navigation and physics-based hijinks. Assist Mode helps newcomers by adjusting time, object weight, or enabling level skips for smoother progression.
It doesn’t stay in one place. The Employees of the Month Pack adds quirky characters like Professor Inkle and Sprinkles. The full troop expands with the Movers in Paradise DLC, introducing 14 tropical-themed levels, jetpacks, cranks, and breakable walls, adding enjoyable variety and vibrant environments. Another free update transformed a dozen original levels into reverse-removal challenges and included fun costumes and dance moves to broaden replay value.
The vibrant, cartoonish style evokes cheerful mayhem. Levels reference pop culture, adding charm and humor. The funky ‘80s soundtrack and satisfying sounds of breaking boards, flying lamps, and grunts amplify the dramatic silliness. Despite its playful veneer, the game carries a subtle narrative thread, casting players as movers uncovering the strange, eccentric truth behind each client. However, the gameplay can be repetitive, and there’s no online multiplayer fun to be had.
Wholesome havoc for the whole couch crew
Moving Out delivers chaotic, laugh-out-loud fun that thrives in a local co-op setting. With its wacky levels, lovable art style, and slapstick gameplay, it’s a joyfully frantic party game perfect for casual gatherings. While the lack of online multiplayer and some repetitive mechanics may disappoint, its accessible design, zany updates, and charm-packed levels make it a couch co-op staple worth tossing into the rotation.
