This game feels very surreal in our current political climate (2025). Please everyone, remember we're all human. Take care of one another. Stand up for one another. Don't let corps take advantage of you!

TLDR: A well constructed story experience Pros: - I like the way Tacoma tells its story, it's very fun to pick through an event over and over while following a different thread each time - the writing holds up, people feel realized, and you can intuit the gaps in the recordings, and the parts you need to fully understand the story are all there if you look, I never felt lost or out of the loop - it's got a fun undertone, looking for the cat in each room or doing some of the other extra stuff for achievements highlights this - While today, AI as we know it is lightyears away from what is present in the game, the themes of how people's lives are controlled by and intertwined with corporate power, has only aged like fine wine Neutral: - I wish there was an additional interaction button, since LMB is how you grab and drop items, as well as how you open doors, I kept accidentally dropping stuff i was trying to carry into another room (you could say skill issue though, because as long as your cursor is on the interact prompt you can open a door without dropping stuff) - I forgot to check if there was an option to enable subtitles in the menu, but if there is it seems like it should be on be default - in rooms with multiple conversations, I sometimes struggled to hear what was said in the overlap. Granted the spatial audio has very short fall off, so as long as you are standing right next to the character you want to focus on, you'll be able to hear just fine Cons: - I sometimes wish I could move a tad faster, a toggle sprint or light jog would have been nice, but then again I went back and forth a lot more than a normal playthrough when trying to get all achievements

A good 3-D sci-fi game. Can 100% in under two hours, so it is quite short.

I came into this game expecting Obra Dinn in space. Please understand that you will not quite get that experience here. I'm a big fan of detective/deduction type games like Obra Dinn and Golden Idol, etc, and I originally got this anticipating that experience in a Sci-Fi setting. This game is not that, however I was very pleasantly surprised by the experience. This is closer to a walking simulator like Edith Finch than it is to a detective game. There is still an interesting mystery to unravel and absorb, however you will not be in charge of solving it, if you play through the game, the mystery will be solved for you as the game conveys its story to you. I was not aware of this fact and took notes the entire time, expecting myself to need to solve the mystery myself at some point, I did not need to, however I think it still added to my experience. There is a LOT of great detail, environmental storytelling, and great character interactions throughout this story, more than enough to take notes on and come to your own little "aha!" moments as you piece things together. The game is relatively short, you can beat it in an afternoon if you dedicate one to it, but still a great experience and one that left me very satisfied with my purchase.

Similar to gone home but with anti-capitalist themes and set in the future, instead of themes of LGBT and adolescence, set in the past. Really great, though I felt had a little less emotional payoff than gone home.
