« Um relaxante jogo, voltado para aqueles que gostam de colorir, enquanto quem não gosta tanto assim pode achar o jogo repetitivo após algum tempo. Gráficos e história fofos. »

« Delightfully charming game, the story is on the short side but long enough to explore the various abilities you unlock for your brush. Well written and cute characters that don't waste your time but make enough of an impact to get invested in them. Incredibly music like everything else written by Lena Raine, a few really beautiful songs but an overall strong soundtrack. A wonderful game to pick up and beat over a few play sessions, strongly reccomend! »

« As someone who loves to paint, as someone who loves to play colorful and original games, Chicory is a wonderful experience. I brought color back to the world, painted pictures, solved puzzles, met some wonderful people, and progressed with my enthusiastic little character. The story is intriguing and full of mystery. There are many regions, a fairly extensive map, and the inhabitants of this magical world are friendly. A great time playing. Plus, for younger players, there's the option to reduce the difficulty in the settings. Bravo for this original and sparkling little game with changing colors. »

« One of the best indie gems I have played. A zelda like adventure with an unique spin on the formula: the use of color, the gameplay is quite original the characters are likeable and relatable. The sountrack is great.. sadly the game is better suited for switch... coloring is not as fun on ps4/ps5 i have played both versions I recommend the switch port. »

« Nice, little cozy game with likeable characters and a touching story, but the actual mechanics can be quite clunky. Also, don't make the same mistake as me and buy it on PS5, as both the analog stick and touchpad are very insufficient input methods for painting and I suspect I'd have enjoyed this game a whole lot more if I had been able to play it with a mouse (PC) or touchscreen (Switch). »

« As a parent who is conscientious about the media my child consumes, I was drawn to "Chicory: A Colorful Tale" by its charming art style and the promise of an inclusive, imaginative adventure suitable for all ages, with an "E for Everyone" rating to boot. Unfortunately, my expectations were not met in a way I had hoped. While I can appreciate the attempt to create a space of diversity and acceptance, I was taken aback by the inclusion of themes I wasn't prepared to discuss with my child at their current **** game ventures into discussing personal and sexual identities in a manner that's quite direct. While this could be a valuable conversation for some families, I believe it's a topic that should be introduced within the family when the time is right, rather than unexpectedly through a game.Moreover, while the game has been celebrated for its approach to topics like mental health and self-expression, the integration of these mature themes seems misaligned with what one might expect from the rating it has been given. Parents might anticipate needing to navigate questions about depression or imposter syndrome, but the casual drop-in of a character's sexual preferences seemed jarring and out of place in what was perceived as a children’s **** summary, "Chicory: A Colorful Tale" may have its heart in the right place, aiming to normalize a wide spectrum of human experience, but it lacks clear communication about its content, leaving some parents like myself surprised and unprepared. It's crucial for the ESRB ratings to accurately reflect the content of games so that parents can make informed decisions about the media their children engage with. »

« Fantastic game. Beautiful music and amazing artwork. Some may say it is boring, however it is not meant to be an action packed game. Cosy and cute with a lovely storyline. »
