Tacoma
Fullbright, the creators of Gone Home, released their second game a few years later. Tacoma’s tale is significantly more futuristic, taking place on an abandoned space station and you watch a series a recreations as you explore to get a sense of what happened to all the characters that were there.
It’s still a lot of exploring, light puzzle solving, and listening to excellent voice acting, but the environmental story telling in Tacoma is a level above anything else.
It might not have a story that emotional like Firewatch, Edith Finch, and Gone Home, but exploring the space station and learning about the characters is fascinating. Also, just like Edith Finch is can be completed in just a couple of hours, so you could play it in just one sitting in the evening.
