Chicory: A Colorful Tale is a top-down Adventure Game developed by Greg Lobanov at Wishes Unlimited and published by Finji. A demo was released in 2019, and drew further attention in Summer 2021 due to its rerelease in Steam's Next Fest. The full game was released on June 10, 2021 for PC via Steam, Playstation 4, and Playstation 5, and on Nintendo Switch on December 15, 2021.You play as a dog who works as a janitor for Chicory, the newest Wielder of the Brush, responsible for giving the world its color. One day, color is suddenly drained from the world, and Chicory is nowhere to be found. You decide to take the Brush, find out what happened to Chicory, and save the world's color. As you explore the world to find out the source of the color disappearing, the more it seems to be connected to Chicory herself...Gameplay revolves around the brush, which you can use to paint on anything and anyone in the world, including yourself. Sometimes, it's used to manipulate the environment, make progress, and solve puzzles, while other times it's just for fun.

Unexpected Gameplay Change: Normally the game has Pizza traveling Picnic Province to color it in with their magic paintbrush and solve puzzles with it. The Wielder Trial at the Mountain Top involves an osu! style rhythm game.

Totem Pole Trench: There's an NPC at the Dinners Transit Office called "An Adult", who's actually three kids in a trench coat. They try to pass themselves as an adult to get a transit pass, but while they're terrible at it, they manage to steal Pizza's pass if the latter relents and gives it to them. Not that that's Plum's problem since he can just give them a new one.

Coloring in the World: The game starts with a color wipe causing all of the color from the setting to disappear. In the beginning of the game, you become the new wielder, able to use a magic brush to color in the world as you explore it, to return the world to its colored state as is the duty of wielders of The Brush in general and to find out what caused the color wipe.

Bathroom Stall Graffiti: The floor of the Wielder Temple has hidden messages that can only be revealed by coloring the floor, giving hints to the puzzles within... as well as graffiti from someone who loved the word "butts". There's even counter-graffiti from an exasperated maintainer of the Temple begging them to stop.

It Sucks to Be the Chosen One
 Chicory: A Colorful Tale (Video Game) / int_224f98fa
comment
It Sucks to Be the Chosen One: The position of being the wielder is desirable due to the ability to inherit the Brush and color the world with it, in fact, the tradition of choosing a worthy wielder started to prevent people from taking the brush with violence. The position had ended up being unbearable for Chicory to inherit, given her strained relationship with her predecessor, Blackberry, and all of the stress and self-doubt she has held within her ends up becoming the breaking point that unleashes the corruption onto the world. A previous wielder, Cardamom, had quickly passed over his position as wielder to Blackberry because he found the position to be too stressful. It also shows that Pizza isn't fully satisfied with being the wielder nor has it resolved all of their inner feelings and conflicts during the game. During the game, the corruption manifests those very forms of self-doubt of Chicory and Pizza onto them as well. It turns out that the Brush itself carries all of the suppressed emotions of every wielder in history, and in the end, the protagonists create their own brushes and destroy the original Brush, so in the end, anyone has the potential to create their own brush to color the world, not just one chosen wielder.

Last Lousy Point
 Chicory: A Colorful Tale (Video Game) / int_23168b93
comment
Last Lousy Point: The direct hints Dad won't give you include lost kids, gifts, and litter locations. So if the tracker says they're somewhere in a very large region, you'll have to scour the whole place. The Art Academy sidequest is required for both its own achievement and the "all decor" achievement. While you COULD simply mash that you're done with each painting the moment the art screen pops up, you only get ONE chance to do each painting, and a few of the art pieces require a certain amount of brush styles to be collected first before letting you start it, so unless you have enough to finish the academy from the start, you'll not be able to just go through it all in one go.

Surprisingly Creepy Moment: The majority of the game is cute, but there are hints at darker, more serious subjects, which are then brought to the forefront when entering the trees produced by the corruption. However, those segments are less about scaring the player, and more a representation of dealing with anxiety and low self-worth.

One-Hit-Point Wonder

comment
Boss fights are the only combat in this game, and the difficulty of said fights can be adjusted freely in the menu, even during the boss fights themselves. It can go all the way from making you a One-Hit-Point Wonder to letting you take an infinite number of hits. And if even that's too much, you can just make yourself untouchable so that bosses can't even hit you.

Gender-Inclusive Writing

comment
Gender-Inclusive Writing: The English script never refers to Pizza's gender, instead using "they/them" pronouns for the character. Other languages ask before beginning the game if you want to be referred to with male, female, or gender-neutral pronouns. It's still an Ambiguous Gender for Pizza, because the English script never clarifies if Pizza is male, female, or non-binary.

Repression Never Ends Well
 Chicory: A Colorful Tale (Video Game) / int_962badd5
comment
Repression Never Ends Well: Chicory's struggle to become the wielder involved her hiding her own insecurities and perceived imperfections, which proves to be the main reason the corruption appears and the color wipe occurs. Furthermore, the final chapter reveals that the Brush itself is responsible for the corruption in the first place due to channeling the repressed fears and emotions of every wielder in history.

Mystery Episode: "Simmering Springs" has one where the furniture in the hotel's VIP room is stolen and Pizza has to find clues to find out what happened. It turns out the concierge Quince was indulging with copious amounts of her favorite food "squeeze" (aka fruit juice) in the room and accidentally splattered it all over the furniture. In a panic, she'd tossed all the furniture into the river to hide the evidence. The owner forgives her for this, because she's relieved it wasn't a crime, Pizza has already replaced the furniture, and the concierge is her best employee.

Production Throwback: In the "Teatime Meadows" area, there's a bird named Kiwi that's dressed exactly like the Wandersong protagonist (who's also called Kiwi by the devs), who asks that you help make music using said game's directional mechanic. As a reward, you're given a brush style that lets you stamp music notes on the environment. Additionally, one of the final boss' attack patterns is the falling feathers from Celeste.

Foreshadowing: If you try to color in Chicory and her room enough times the first time you enter it, she'll eventually get angry, erase all the colors, and disable the brush until you leave, hinting at the colors disappearing being linked back to her. It also hints at the fact that the power of the wielders do not stem entirely from the brush. Talking to Cardamom reveals the reason why he passed the brush to Blackberry was because the demands and duties required from him as the wielder eventually wore him out. Chicory allowing Pizza to take the brush turns out to be from a similar mindset.

Classical Anti-Hero: Both Pizza and Chicory are examples of this, as Pizza continually doubts their stance as a Wielder, and Chicory has to deal with her mental health issues. However, they both get better- Pizza becomes far more confident after they create their own brush, and Chicory at least starts to heal by the end of the game.

Developer's Foresight
 Chicory: A Colorful Tale (Video Game) / int_d24ed873
comment
Developer's Foresight: The player is asked what their favorite food is at the start of the game, which determines the name of the dog protagonist. If an important character already has that name (ex. "Chicory"), instead of refusing your entry, you're asked what your second-favorite food is. If you keep doing it intentionally, it goes all the way up to tenth-favorite before going with a more generic next-favorite. And if you name yourself as a lesser NPC, they may even comment on it (ex. "Curry" in Brekkie wonders if they should start a club for Curries). Caramel runs back and forth offscreen to find items for the Clothing Swap store. If you swap out multiple clothes in the same trip, Caramel gets unique animations where he's visibly more and more sweaty and winded. At the end of the credits, if the player beat the game under a certain amount of time, Chicory will comment that you were, quote, "REALLY FAST". After the sequence where you have a fight with Chicory shortly after discovering she's spawning the corruption, you're immediately given where to go for the next area. However, you can go back and call your mother (normally just the Hint System), which will start a unique conversation discussing what just happened with her, after which you'll get the hint option like normal. If you try to use the transit bench during the climax where Pizza is stripped of the Brush and all hope seems to be lost, there is a note saying that the transit system is closed due to "seemingly apocalyptic circumstances". Normally, dying during a fight will cause Pizza to fall down hurt before the game inexplicably rewinds back to the phase you were currently on. While mechanically the same, dying during the final boss fight against the brush, specifically during the phases after Chicory's Big Damn Heroes moment will have Chicory helping you up instead.

Anti-Frustration Features: Boss fights are the only combat in this game, and the difficulty of said fights can be adjusted freely in the menu, even during the boss fights themselves. It can go all the way from making you a One-Hit-Point Wonder to letting you take an infinite number of hits. And if even that's too much, you can just make yourself untouchable so that bosses can't even hit you. Calling Pizza's parents will give hints to get around. Pizza's mom gives you general hints as to where you should be going, with an option for her to pass the phone to Pizza's dad, who will give exact details about what you need to do to progress. These hints even factor in the phone booth that you called from for Dad's directions. For instance, Mom might say "you should go to the dark tree", with Dad following up with "you need to go two screens to the left, then follow the road". Content warnings for intense moments can be enabled, and they give the option to proceed or skip potentially triggering scenes. While rare, it's possible while swimming through paint to accidentally end up in an area you weren't supposed to get to yet with no way back. To counteract this, you can just teleport right back to Luncheon.

comment
Something We Forgot: Lampshaded in the postgame, where after getting 100% completion and wandering to another screen, Prunus the bug reminds Pizza that he's still on Pizza's head and asks permission to head back to Feast to raise a newfound family.

comment
Normally, dying during a fight will cause Pizza to fall down hurt before the game inexplicably rewinds back to the phase you were currently on. While mechanically the same, dying during the final boss fight against the brush, specifically during the phases after Chicory's Big Damn Heroes moment will have Chicory helping you up instead.

One-Steve Limit: Zig-Zagged. You can't name the player character the same as a major character like Chicory. However, they can have the same name as minor characters, and some even comment on it.

comment
Too Much Information: Prunus refuses to translate Quercus's saying about the former being a big fan of Wielders because the latter's being "really embarrassing".

Earn Your Happy Ending

comment
Earn Your Happy Ending: Working together, Pizza and Chicory destroy the true source of the Black Forest, the brush, with brushes of their own. Not only is the cycle of Wielders broken, but they intend to teach others how to make and use brushes of their own, thus preventing color of Picnic from fading.
