I love discovering unique gameplay mechanics in indie games and Chicory succeeded by delivering some nifty painting gameplay that I can't recall seeing since the Epic Mickey series. The game is adorable and charming as can be. The beautiful colors and simplicity of the story with cure characters make it an experience that many will no doubt find relaxing. I spent much more time watching my two teenagers play than I did controlling the game myself, though, and I'm completely okay with that. I don't have the creative mind or desire to play around with colors in the way that they do. I just wanted to get from point a to point b, so while I can recognize how wonderful it is and how much people like them will adore the game, for me it wasn't a special experience or even one that stands out as particular memorable in fact.
