Chuchel

Chuchel
Reviewed on 1/12/19

If you enjoy silly stuff, slapstick humor and a bit of surrealism, then this is the PERFECT app for you. Chuchel is a small orange dust ball who would really love to be able to eat a cherry that's as big as his head (well, his whole body, really).  Sadly, other characters and circumstances keep separating him from his precious fruit. Travel through this app with Chuchel, playing mini-games and watching mini-animations that will have you laughing out loud. Parents should know that there's at least one game that involves Chuchel urinating on something to activate it (though his back is to the viewer, so it's not obscene or anything) and at one point, he licks some mushrooms and ends up in a rainbow vortex for a few moments. A few of the mini-games will be too challenging for younger players. This is a fun one for parents and kids to play together! Big kudos to the developer who changed the design of Chuchel himself after they got feedback that his original color scheme reminded some players of blackface (originally, his body was black and his hat was orange). Know better, do better, hooray! This game is also available on STEAM and other digital gaming platforms.
