Tchia was such a cute time, with an engaging twist on a tired open world formula. Shapeshifting into basically anything made traversal in the game pure joy. Exploring the island and its inhabitants inspired by New Caledonia has very unique vibes and it’s refreshing to experience something wildly different from the grim and brutal open worlds you usually explore. Tchia does a lot of cool things, but in the end only offers just enough for a rather short trip to its island. That’s not a bad thing, especially in times where open worlds usually are heavily bloated.
