![]() ![]() Chicory is a top-down adventure game where you travel the world in search of new powers that let you into new areas and so on. I know I mentioned Zelda a lot earlier, but I want to be clear on where the similarities end. Along the way, you’ll learn more about the Brush and its many capabilities, meet tons of residents who may help you or require your help in turn, and uncover the source of the strange malaise that has cost the world its colors. You might think that correcting this mishap would fall to Chicory, but it doesn’t! It falls to you, the faithful janitor of the Wielder’s Tower, as you discover the Brush left unattended and set off on a journey of hope and discovery. ![]() It’s a big job, maintaining the very appearance of existence, and it becomes dreadfully complicated by a sudden disaster that saps all the colors from the world. And if that’s not enough, the story takes on themes more meaningful that I was ever expecting of such an adorable outing.Ĭhicory is the Wielder, the most recent in a long line of artisans who command a magical Brush that can bring color to anything. Chicory pursues this idea with all the light and heart it can muster, giving you not only command of the world’s hues, but also every opportunity to solve puzzles or problems with a stroke of your brush. No, I mean taking the adventuring, puzzling, and fanciful stylings of Zelda and wrapping them around the ability to paint your surroundings in a game. I don’t mean an actual coloring book, I had that when I was a kid, and I must say I preferred the genuine NES article. I think we can all agree that “Zelda, but a coloring book” is a gem of an idea.
