So what kinds of tasks are there for you to do? Well your main tool for interacting with the world is your camera, and there are plenty of people in Toem who could use a picture taken for one reason or another. Most regions only require you to get about half of the local stamps in order to progress, which helps to make Toem a low stress experience – you can focus on the tasks you want to do and if clearing the areas isn’t something you care about, it’s quite simple to make your way through the game in a couple of hours. Once you’ve helped enough people, you’ll be allowed to take the bus to the next area. You get a stamp on your card when you help someone out. For each region you get a community card which can hold a bunch of stamps. That is, they don’t unless you’ve done your part in serving the local community. You move between those regions by bus, but of course buses don’t run for free. Toem’s map is comprised of four distinct regions (not counting your house and the area where the event occurs). And while Toem the magical event is pretty cool, the real magic of Toem the game is the journey you take to get there. With a fairly standard camera (except of course for its dynamic zoom feature!) she sends you off to take your trip.



It’s a journey plenty have taken before, including your grandmother with whom you live. The premise of Toem is simple: travel to see the phenomenon known as “Toem” and take a picture.
