Set in the fictional South American tourist town of Santa Ballena, Tourist Trap introduces players to Lucas, a young tourist guide. Lucas finds himself entangled in a conspiracy involving local abductions and an evil foreign corporation pulling the strings behind the scenes of the town. The game boasts a strong focus on narrative, with light puzzle-solving elements thrown into the mix. The mechanics are kept simple, requiring only one button for interactions, and the gameplay time is estimated to be between 2-3 hours.
The game's director, Manuel González Larrauri, shared his artistic vision for Tourist Trap. He explained that the game's plot draws heavily from his personal experiences growing up in a working-class family in Punta del Este, Uruguay. The narrative also explores the parallels between the touristification of towns and the cultural industries in the global south.
Tourist Trap started as a small project funded by Uruguay's Ministry of Culture in 2020. In 2021, TragicoMedia joined the ID@XBOX Developer Acceleration Program, which allowed the team to release the game on Xbox consoles and complete the game's development.
Tourist Trap is now available on Steam for wishlisting . For more information, follow TragicoMedia on their Twitter page or visit their website. Also, check out their YouTube channel for more updates and trailers.
