![]() I genuinely loved how the story goes out of its way to embrace creativity, but also show the darker side of what being a Brush-wielder actually means. Calamares is not just a silent protagonist but has their own personality and interaction with others. The story is incredibly well written and has a lot of heart and character poured into it. As soon as you leave the tower, splashes of corruption start popping up all over the land, and it's up to Calamares to figure out why these have appeared and how to combat these growing problems. It's up to Calamares to go around and restore color to the world and take over the responsibilities of the wielder. However, one day all the color in the world goes missing and the current wielder, Chicory, has decided to discard the Brush. The wielder is a powerful artist that wields the Brush, a magical artifact that can bring color to the world. In Chicory: A Wonderful Tale, you play as the Janitor (who in my playthrough was named Calamares) of Wielder Tower. It is really something special that anyone looking for a wholesome and cozy experience needs to dip their brush into. Using the fundamentals of a Zelda-like experience, Chicory weaves its own tale about art, being creative, and the pressure of living up to the expectations of yourself and others. Released as a surprise shadowdrop at the end of the last Indie World presentation, its unique style immediately caught my attention. If there was one title that I’d heard a lot of great things about last year that I didn’t get around to, it was Chicory: A Colorful Tale.
