I owned Tacoma for a long time before I played it, nine years after it originally released. To say the story is more relevant today than it was in 2017 would be an understatement. In fact some elements of the "science fiction" are now "labor facts," and others are close on the horizon. As others have said, the game is short (three hours for me), so you'd be justified to wait for a sale. But do give it a shot.

The story in this game was *chef's kiss* Loved it! The nonsequential narrative style really impacted how I felt about the characters and made me invested in their lives. Also the 0G mechanics felt great, takes some getting used to, but very fun. 10/10 recommended.

A short walking story game set in space, very low stakes and chill to play through. Wish it was longer, but still good nevertheless!

Atmospheric similar to Firewatch, mystery, but low stakes as it is mostly an exploring and following the story. Fairly short play as well, but I enjoyed it.

Tacoma is well made for what it sets out to do. Unlike Gone Home, which leaned heavily on mystery, Tacoma focuses more on the people aboard the space station, slowly building toward a reveal about the corporation behind it all. The world building and characters are honestly more compelling than the main plot its biggest weakness is that the story holding everything together feels a bit underwritten. It’s a low stakes, very guided experience, and I can see why some players might lose interest early on. But the AR segments are absolutely the highlight. The amount of effort it must’ve taken to script and perform every overlapping conversation so cleanly is wild, and as a mechanic it’s far more engaging than the letters and audio logs from Gone Home. Choosing which threads to follow makes the story feel more alive. Basically, everything Gone Home did well, Tacoma improves on except for the core narrative, which feels almost incidental even though it fits with the world it builds. Still, if you enjoy walking sims, Tacoma is an easy recommendation as “another one of those,” and a well-crafted one at that.
