Tacoma was okay, but I can't say it left much of an impression on me. The graphics are pretty nice, and I liked the idea of exploring a space station and discovering what happened to the crew through recordings of their past conversations and interactions. I think it's the kind of game you really need to take your time with. There are plenty of documents to read and conversations to listen to, including little personal stories and relationships between the crew members. Taking the time to discover all these details probably makes the experience a lot more immersive, but if you're someone who likes to rush through games, this one probably isn't for you. Unfortunately, I also ran into quite a few bugs, especially with the elevators. At one point, while playing basketball, I somehow got launched outside the station and ended up stuck in space. Every time I restarted the game, it loaded me right back into the void, so I had to start all over again. Overall, I think Tacoma is a good game, even if it wasn't really for me. I liked the concept, but the story didn't leave much of an impression on me, and the bugs were pretty frustrating. Still, I can see why others would enjoy it.
fun game, with a very prescient story. however it is VERY short. i finished it in a about 2 hours, which i wouldn't mind, but it doesn't really do anything super interesting with that time. and i say that as a fan of walking simulators. get it on sale like i did, but it is not worth full price.
It is staggerring how much detail there is in this game that would go completely unnoticed by most players. There's so much extra information and appreciation for the characters that can be gained simply by looking at what books they have in their rooms. The worldbuilding is likewise shockingly good and expansive for such a short game, and is also an impressive excercise in prescience. Seeing a "president Musk" reference in a 2017 game is a straight up spooky. Unfortunately the actual plot that the likeable and believable characters are going through is just decent in my opinion, and feels like it has less impact than Gone Home despite attempting to do a lot more. It is sad to realise how little I will remember from this game, but it is still more than worth the discounted pricetag.
Very enjoyable short story in which you piece together the narrative through environmental exploration and interwoven character scenes. It's well written, with strong characters and believable dialogue. What surprised me most was how it frames our relationship with AI. Given that it came out in 2017, it feels remarkably prescient today. If you enjoy soaking up a story through well-crafted environmental storytelling, you'll probably get on well with it. If you prefer games with more player agency and interaction, you may find it less engaging. For me, I thought the pacing was excellent, and it kept me intrigued from start to finish. Which is rare.
