I think this game is really special. I don't know if it clicks with everyone, but for those that it does, it really clicks. (Including me.) The story, characters and world are all interesting, familiar, and strong. There are emotional moments where the dialogue is legitimately hard to read. The music and sound design are really good. The puzzles and gameplay and the customizeable nature of literally everything are really fun. I think some people might look at this and just write it off as "cozy drawing game" That's stupid, it's so much more, for all the reasons I just listed. This is a project of love, passion, and joyful creation. I think it may live inside my mind for a while like all media I really like does. I may try and 100% it. To summarize, I think It's very good.

Underrated gem. It’s a painting game, and it may look like a game for toddlers, but it is one of the most connecting experiences I have ever had in a video game. The gameplay is incredibly fun, and the music is AMAZING (Lena Raine I kneel down at you), but the best part is by far the story. It has such a profound meaning and each character struggle feels real. Not only the main ones, but there are plenty of side stories that have deep messages with really heartwarming conclusions to them. This is not just a game, it’s a therapy session. Enjoy playing while healing your heart. One of the best games I have ever played, I’m absolutely in love.

I came into Chicory expecting a light hearted coloring adventure game, but what I experienced was something more meaningful. If you have ever doubted yourself or the art you created, I think Chicory will resonate with you.
