I really had to be on my toes here, and taking possession of the various flammable objects at the camp and hurling them at my enemies provided the type of rush I didn’t think this game would provide. The first time I stumbled across a Maano Camp was when I realized there was more to this game than the fetch quests I was doing up until that point. Yes, there is combat in Tchia, and in the beginning, it’s highly enjoyable. When in battle against Maano, the fabric soldiers mentioned earlier, she can possess gas cans and oil lamps that burn those mother truckers to ashes. As you explore the world, Soul Jumping into a bird, dog, or even a rock will help Tchia travel faster than she can on foot. With this, she can jump into any animal in the game and dozens of different objects. Our her has a few tools at her disposal, including a slingshot, a camera, and a flashlight, but the top weapon in Tchia’s arsenal is her “Soul Jumping” ability. That, and complete the story, as Tchia’s quest is largely tied to the narrative. But that would have to wait until I could expand Tchia’s powers. The monarch’s introduction to the player was so dark and demented, that I couldn’t wait to start kicking their ass. Meavora is about as evil of a villain as I’ve seen in quite some time. Accompanied by two fabric soldiers, the three of them take Tchia’s dad to Meavora, a malevolent king who rules over this tiny archipelago. Her idyllic island life was torn asunder with the arrival of an old acquaintance. Tchia is on a quest to get her father back. …but this journey would be no trip to Sandals. That, to me, sounds like the perfect island getaway… Its eponymous hero is the type of laid-back person I strive to be on holiday, eating delicious-looking food while chilling by the campfire with her ukulele in hand.
The island setting is marvelous and bright, the exact kind of setting I could use right now, having been trapped in a perpetual winter for the last three months. To be fair, everything about this game screams “summer vacation”. I misguidedly came into Tchia thinking it would be a lighthearted jaunt, something along the lines of Lil’ Gator Game or Alba: A Wildlife Adventure.
