Technical aspects

TOEM is a fun and enjoyable adventure game, whose action is set in a fantastic version of the modern world. The game was developed by the independent studio Something We Made.

Plot

In TOEM we play the role of an amateur photographer. The game sets off on a journey through a land inspired by modern Scandinavia and inhabited by people and various humanoid creatures. Its primary goal is to see with one's own eyes the magical phenomenon known as the Toem. However, before he can do so, he will first have to help the inhabitants of the visited places to solve their problems.

Mechanics

In TOEM, the action is shown in an isometric view. During the game, we travel through various locations and talk to their inhabitants, finding out about the tasks to be performed for them. The missions involve not only looking for specific items (like a lost sock), but also taking pictures; the camera then switches to the FPP view, allowing us to select the right frame. The photographs we take then go into the hero's handy album, which we can view at any time. As we make progress, we gain access to more places, gradually approaching the realization of the protagonist's greatest dream.
