Toem 2 preview: A cozy photo adventure that makes even routine tasks fun

Discussions about video game tourism tend to linger on things like how accurately a place is recreated, like in Forza Horizon 6 or RGG Studio’s Yakuza games. But Polygon recently had a chance to play a previously unreleased chunk of Toem 2, Something We Made’s follow-up to the charming photography game Toem. And the upcoming sequel does an impeccable job of creating the feel of being an actual tourist. It’s a “wander around town” simulator, albeit one where you’re likely to get roped into helping with some sewage troubles.
