Fill your empty house with stuff and become the ultimate hoarder!

Movement: WASD
Use the mouse to navigate the YouBuy.biz webpage!

Congratulations on buying your very first house!

It's empty, but with all the money you've saved up, you should be able to amass yourself a mountain of stuff in no time.

Browse YouBuy on your computer to buy new things and add them to your house. You'll get a satisfaction rating based on how cool the item is!

Smaller items can be stacked to save space and increase satisfaction. Try to stack items of the same type together for bonus satisfaction!

Stacks can not be combined.

Just be careful about stacking items too high, or they might collapse and hurt you!

And don't get too wrapped up in your shopping spree...if you neglect your bodily functions or the cleanliness of your home, bad things may happen...

filth attracts giant sewer rats that are too big for the cats to eat.

I died surrounded by my horde of cats & instant ramen - I love this game

m.dam7 Oct 2019, 20:14

Bought every cat as soon as it came up - is this ok?

LoudLout7 Oct 2019, 22:09

Gamer Life simulator, lol :D Ok guys, it's the best joke-game about our generation, I'm keen off!

Great amount of content. Stacking can be a little unintuitive. I was hoping my cat would rip the rats to shreds. Useless cat... Guess I'll buy 72 more.

I really love the grim aesthetic, though cats are a little op

Babadook8 Oct 2019, 03:53

This was too much fun. Kept getting bit by the rat and laughed every time it happened.

slimabob8 Oct 2019, 04:29

Such a charming art style. The text popups for each item made me chuckle. Good job.

revx8 Oct 2019, 04:53

Very clever and innovative! Pushing things around without arms made me laugh :)

Tommyflower8 Oct 2019, 09:56

hello fellow hoarder! I liked your interpretation! You found a simple immediate way to move objects around! The Bela Lugosi sofa had to be mine and I appreciated that the cat moved around, in spite of being a used one :) I died horribly but it was a lot of fun! You also wrote a lot for this. Great job!

Finally a game i can buy as many cats as i want. Stacking is somewhat weird.

Furraran8 Oct 2019, 12:08

Well, I died. What a shame, two cats can't call an ambulance! And my limited edition figure too... Arrogant self-obsessed beasts!
Anyway, this is very sweet hikki hoarder simulator with good sense of humor, irony and existential statement. I'm also charmed by the the main character design and whole art style of the same as well. Together they work perfectly and create the right atmosphere. :3

Those stupid cat can't catch the rat.
Like they do in real life. That's why I love them both here and there :-)

I really enjoyed the graphics and the gameplay. I would loved to hear some music, also.

Ekaterina8 Oct 2019, 12:51

Oh my god, this is my life! Very funny and original))

MadEasterBunny8 Oct 2019, 15:01

I really want to eat some of Grandma's pizza now! But honestly, this was a lot of fun to play! I'm not sure if all the mechanics were working properly, but it was still a lot of fun!

HKSpadez8 Oct 2019, 18:34

Funny game and love the art style!

philomory8 Oct 2019, 22:18

Oh my. 446846. No idea if that's... good? It's pretty funny, though. You _very_ quickly have trouble reaching the bathroom with all the crap in the way.

SnufkinsHat8 Oct 2019, 23:05

Ok. That was entirely too enjoyable... and maybe too relatable? I feel slightly judged. Great game. :-)

PROJECTaroid9 Oct 2019, 16:44

Nice play on the theme. Good presentation and fun to play.

Chad Cable10 Oct 2019, 07:25

This is wonderful! Love having to clear a path so I can rush to the bathroom, and the roaming cats and rats that actually interacted with the environment are a nice touch.

daria-toni10 Oct 2019, 17:27

Ha-ha, that was fun! I can't believe you created so many funny descriptions for things. And I like this style -teen-goth from the 2000s (I think it's me). I wish there was music and sounds.

kuviman10 Oct 2019, 18:21

Not really my type of game, but the idea is there and its implemented well

Erin11 Oct 2019, 00:55

Those cats are dastardly! They kept messing up my pathway to the bathroom, so I ended up giving up on the bathroom and just buying as many things as possible until I died. That's a TON of art and writing to do in such a short time; I'm really impressed. The names of the sellers are pretty hilarious, too. Good job.

Samdwester11 Oct 2019, 00:56

I enjoyed getting 50 used cats. I like the interpretation of the theme

Eranot11 Oct 2019, 01:00

Really good and funny. I think the graphics really pass the mood you wanted, and cats 10/10
