Tchia is an adventure game with an open world, in which we travel through a tropical land. The game was developed by the independent studio Awaceb.
Tchia takes us on a journey to a fictional place, to be precise, to a land inspired by New Caledonia, a small French island in the Pacific Ocean, where the developers come from. The heroine of the game is the girl, who walks through the archipelago, meeting its inhabitants and experiencing various adventures.
In Tchia, the action is shown from the third person perspective (TPP). During the game, we explore the region, travelling on foot or on board of a boat. Moving around the locations is made easier by the impressive skills of the protagonist, who can both climb on elements of the environment and swim, use a provisional parachute or even use trees as a kind of launcher. In addition, Tchia is able to take control of animals and various objects like tyres, which gives her additional capabilities; as a bird, for example, she can travel long distances in the air and as a dog she can dig deep holes in the ground. She is also able to play the ukulele; this way, we sometimes push the story forward or manipulate the game world, summoning animals or changing the weather. Although initially her repertoire is limited, with time we unlock new melodies.
All this is not only useful during exploration and completion of various tasks, but also helps us to discover the secrets of the presented world and to solve numerous puzzles. As we progress, we are gaining hundreds of cosmetic accessories to change the look of both the heroine and her boat, as well as useful tools like torch, compass or camera.
Tchia has colourful graphics in cartoon style.

Game Ratings for Tchia Video Game.
Hardcore Gamer: 3.5 / 5 by Kyle LeClair
Tchia is a terrific ode to New Caledonia that's sadly hampered by a bloated and standard open-world design that tries to do too much. Still, even if the gameplay isn't wholly original, there's fun to be had here, with truly impressive sights and sounds that can make the archipelago a delight to explore at times. Just try to maintain some focus as you navigate the numerous distractions and you'll experience quite the impressive trip.
TheSixthAxis: 5 / 10 by Nic Bunce
Tchia is clearly a labour of love as Awaceb try to bring their culture to the rest of the world and show off what it has to offer. I absolutely love that tone and feel, but the way Tchia is packaged and paced means that it is ultimately feels like less than the sum of its parts.
Eurogamer: by Christian Donlan
A glorious spell of island hopping, with some surprisingly nasty moments.
