The gloves are on, the checklist is ready, and nothing is where it should be. Tovarishch Games — the minds behind the acclaimed Bunker Tidy Up — and simulation specialists PlayWay S.A. have officially announced that Quarantine Lab Sort will launch on Steam this 28th October 2026. It’s time to suit up, step inside, and restore order to a facility where every shelf is chaotic, every sample is mysterious, and every jar is best left… well, handled very carefully.
What Is Quarantine Lab Sort?
If you’ve ever stared at a mess and thought, “I can fix this,” prepare to meet your ultimate challenge. Where Bunker Tidy Up tasked you with organising a fallout shelter, this follow-up drops you into a high-security research lab that’s fallen into total disarray. Your mission: sort, catalogue, clean, and secure over 7,000 items across the facility — turning towering piles of clutter into pristine, labelled, perfectly ordered shelves.
But this isn’t just colour-coding and alphabetising. The lab holds dangers and discoveries in equal measure:
- Sort 250+ distinct item types — no endless duplicates; every category brings new shape, new logic, and new satisfaction
- Analyse mysterious samples — load the centrifuge, run tests, and uncover what’s actually inside those sealed test tubes
- Recapture escaped subjects — the lab’s residents have wandered loose; track them down and return them safely
- Handle hazardous materials — radioactive waste requires caution, proper gear, and the right disposal procedure; cut corners and you’ll pay the price
- Grow your skills — earn upgrade points for every item correctly placed; unlock faster workflows, better equipment, and new wings of the facility
- See your progress — from disarray to discipline; watch rooms transform before your eyes
From Bunkers to Laboratories — The Tovarishch Formula
Tovarishch Games struck a chord with players through Bunker Tidy Up, proving that satisfying organisation, calm pacing, and meaningful progression could draw huge audiences. Quarantine Lab Sort builds on that foundation with fresh mechanics, greater variety, and a setting brimming with personality:
“This isn’t just a bunker with new decorations. There are new mechanics to explore — examining test tubes in a centrifuge, catching escaped animals, and handling radioactive waste.”

Crucially, the team has listened to feedback: no grinding through hundreds of identical objects. Every item matters, every placement advances your skills, and the satisfaction of seeing an empty shelf fill with exactly what it needs remains front and centre.
A Partnership Built on Simulation
PlayWay S.A. has become synonymous with immersive simulation experiences — from Car Mechanic Simulator to House Flipper. Quarantine Lab Sort fits perfectly within their portfolio: a simple premise executed with depth, care, and genuine respect for the player’s time.
