    Inspired by the Kanak culture in New Caledonia, "Tchia" plays as a charming, open-world sandbox title where you play as a young girl with a mysterious soul-jumping ability. Tchia must rescue her father and take down the tyrannical stronghold of Meavora and his fabric soldiers.

    Every single new thing we discovered about Tchia was delightful. Multiple times, we thought to ourselves, 'They didn't need to go this hard', but they always did, and it always paid off. Each cutscene is full of details and character, and the game is constantly trying to make you laugh with strange visual jokes and unexpected dialogue, which always works. Every part of this game goes above and beyond, in ways we can't even put into words, because Tchia made us feel speechless with joy at every turn.

    Despite a few technical hiccups on the Switch Tchia remains a wonderfully wholesome adventure.

    Tchia has something to it. I don’t think it’s the most fully-formed and properly fleshed-out open world game by any means, but I also don’t think that’s the main priority of it. This is a window to the place, the life experiences, the culture that the people behind it know so well. This Switch port carries itself well enough, though there are some noticeable visual flaws at times. Don’t come to this looking for a Pacific Island take on Breath of the Wild, because it isn’t that even if it sometimes resembles it. It’s Tchia. And it’s good.
