TOEM
I was very charmed by the demo of this game on one of Steam’s special events, so I purchased it at launch. I was not disappointed with the final product. The game is equal parts charming and relaxing with an adorable, hand drawn art style and calm, lovable music.
This is a point and click adventure game. It controls exclusively with the mouse (though developers claim they’re working on adding keyboard support as well). The gist, like in most of these games, is to travel to different places, meet lots of people and solve puzzles for their benefit in order to reach a personal goal. There’s no combat here, of course. Your only tool is a camera, which you can use to take pictures, zoom in to see things far away and even interact with certain characters and objects in more than one way.

There’s so much I want to say about this lovely game, so I’ll break it into sections.
Gameplay: The main mechanic of the game is taking photos. But don’t be fooled by this seemingly simple premise, there is so much to do! In each area of TOEM, I had tons of things that I could complete, or I could just sit back and take in my surroundings. You will need to fulfill a certain number of requests to move onto the next area, but after that it’s up to you how you want to spend your time. I’m already 5 hours in but I’m not even halfway through the game yet! Pro tip: wearing the clogs helps you play at a more relaxed pace.

Dear Future
I forced myself to finish it so you don’t have to.
TL:DR 8 hours of boring walking to uncover a lame story, and a non working multiplayer.
A walking simulator made for some college student art project, what could go wrong???
But the innovative sounding multiplayer component, plus the fact that it’s free, sucked me in. And the game, although minimalist, initially manages to feel well-designed and polished…
But notice how none of the reviewers seem to have played this for more than 30 minutes?

Photos of future ruins
Dear Future (Dear Future Production Committee, 2021) is an asynchronous massively-multiplayer photography game about exploring an abandoned city. I have been trying to write about it for several weeks and have found myself incapable of doing with any organization or distance. What follow, instead, are orchestrated recollections and half-formed conclusions of my time with the game. A half-step towards the understanding I’m searching for. A version with photos is available here .

Alekon
This is a very simple game idea. You take photos of mostly happy, colorful creatures, solve some simple puzzles, play minigames. What makes Alekon very interesting is the memorable creature design, but it’s worth mentioning that, as you go further, it’s getting harder to memorise all of them.
It’s fairly easy to move forward in the game, you are not forced to finish everything (but some skills make your life easier, specially if you try to make every photo 10/10) I would say childfriendly, if we don’t count some of the minigames are kinda hard (But as far as I see, the devs are taking feedback and fixing those, so you can partly ignore this comment) and the situation with the Shrooma minigame, that felt a bit odd.

Penko Park
Want to go on a weird safari? well then heres a game for you!
Penko park is an exploration game in the vein of Pokemon snap, you sit in a cart and are driven on a tour of the abandoned Penko wildlife park, as you travel through the park you take snapshots of the various animals that inhabit the place, in many ways its like a rail shooter.
Of course theres more to it that simply riding passively through the park, there are numerous collectables to find and alternate paths to open up. And simply finding the various animals isn’t all there is either most will have multiple poses to collect so you have to figure out how to get them in addition to just finding the animal, for the most part this is fairly easy as the interactions involve only the target animal itself, but there are a few situations where things get complex (like using one creature to scare another) its just a shame that there aren’t more of these in the game (like scaring away a predator causing a new creature to come out or something) but I can see how that would be alot more work for such a small team.

It’s Pokemon Snap on Steam.
So, I really liked Pokemon Snap on N64. I know, I know, it’s a game for five-year-olds, but it was so much fun - travel around different locations, keep your eyes peeled, take some good pictures. Well, that’s what this game is… just with the random monsters of a different imagination. It’s kinda weird - this game is quite a bit simpler than Snap, and yet… I think I liked this one more. Heck, the graphics aren’t even up to the Snap level (Snap was 3D, super animated, blah blah blah… This one is hand-drawn-y, simple animations, etc) - and I still think I like this one better. My ONLY disappointment was how quickly I “beat” the game - I’m showing 4.2 hours logged as of writing this, and that was with trying to take my time to enjoy (rather than trying to “steamroll” the game).
