The Generation GapWhat our critics say

The Meta-EconomistGen Z

Chicory: A Colorful Tale is just pure joy and introspection. You play as a dog with a magical paintbrush, bringing color back to a world where everything has gone grayscale. The painting mechanics are super creative for puzzles and exploration, and the art style is adorable. But don't let the cute looks fool you; it tackles some surprisingly deep themes about creativity and self-doubt. It’s an incredibly wholesome and emotionally resonant adventure.
