I’m totally obsessed with this game. Simple black-white line visuals bring super chill casual vibes, and just enjoying soft bgm plus taking nice shots can calm me down a lot. What’s more it has main quests as well so u can keep moving on with the game. Only downside is some puzzles are too confusing that I gotta check walkthrus, yet the whole experience is still peak level all the way.

This is such a cute little game with a lot of personality. While I didn't use a lot of the photo filters or take selfies, I had a lot of fun taking pictures and fulfilling the little challenges. I absolutely burned through it on a Sunday afternoon, and would easily recommend it to friends and family.

What a splendid little game. I'm glad I gave this one a chance despite thinking the B/W aesthetic would be too monotone. It wasn't. The game has so much charm and rewards the player for taking the scenic route to explore every nook and cranny and angle. I appreciated the game not having any missable collectables or achievements. I do wish there was a way to add filters to photos that have already been taken but otherwise found Toem a flawless experience. The free DLC adding a day/night cycle looked fantastic and felt so festive.

A Love Letter to Photography Rating: 10/10 As a professional photographer, it is rare to find a game that doesn't just feature a "photo mode" but is built entirely around the soul of photography. TOEM is that rare achievement, a 10/10 experience that understands the joy of looking at the world through a viewfinder. The choice of high-contrast, hand-drawn black and white graphics is a stroke of genius. Without the distraction of color, the game forces you to focus on what matters most in photography: composition, lighting, and subjects. Every frame of TOEM feels curated, inviting you to find the beauty in the silhouettes of trees, the texture of the sea, and the quirky expressions of its inhabitants. The puzzles in TOEM are far more than go here, click this. They require a photographer's eye. Whether you are hunting for a specific perspective to reveal a hidden object or waiting for a decisive moment to capture a bird in flight, the game rewards patience and observation. It feels rewarding because it mimics the real-life thrill of getting the shot after scouting a location. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3693273647 The lo-fi, chill-hop-inspired soundtrack collection is the perfect companion for a cross-country photography trip. It creates a relaxing, low-pressure environment where you can truly get lost in the act of creation. From the bustling city streets to the quiet, snowy peaks, the audio-visual synergy is flawless. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3693588050 Time? HLTB says it's 6 hrs average to 100%, but I took 11.5 hrs, and boy, it was so worth it. If you don't want to 100%, then it should be around 4 hours. There are missable achievements in every location, and you can get them with a guide when you feel stuck. The new expansion is great as well, only it's a little confusing in terms of map design. Final Verdict As a pro photographer, I can say TOEM captures the essence of our craft better than any other medium. A cozy, monochrome masterpiece that replaces stress with a camera and a catchy beat. Pure perfection.

TOEM tells the story of a small, sheep-like creature who dreams of experiencing the “TOEM” (comparable to the Aurora Borealis) once, and sets off on a long journey to make that little dream come true. It's a short cozy game set in a monochrome 2.5D world where you use a camera to capture everything interesting you find along the way. You'll meet a lot of quirky characters who send you on small quests through five different locations. The story is told with a lot of love, the world is rich in detail and also hides many little secrets, while the OST creates a relaxing background atmosphere. Including the free DLC, it took me about 10 hours to complete 100%, but I really took my time and simply, just enjoyed the atmosphere. Overall, TOEM is a handsome combination of adventure-, cozy-, hidden object- and puzzle game that is definitely worth the price of 20€.
