2021 indie hit Chicory: A Colorful Tale still packs an emotional punch 5 years later.

It’s easy to compare Chicory: A Colorful Tale, the June 2021 indie hit from developer Greg Lobanov and publisher Finnji, to a 2D Legend of Zelda title. The common ground is there: both have top-down overworlds, where you solve environmental puzzles and gradually unlock new abilities, allowing you to explore more areas of the map. Five years after its debut on PC and consoles, it’s still a joyful expression of experimental creativity.
