Well, when one sometimes does a bit of diamond painting in real life and then sees this one pop up in our lovely IndieGems curator, one must try it, right?! Right!
Overall, I can’t be angry at the game, nor do I see a reason to downvote it. It promises the cozy and chill experience. No timers, no pressure, and just a very laid-back, on-your-own-pace experience. Although, for me and my old bones, this doesn’t come without a but!
The constant clicking, square by square, and the lack of an accessibility option for this are a little off-putting and pretty much one of the small things that keep me from binge-playing it.
And sure enough, there are power-ups that provide some help, but letting it idle till the next power isn’t really fun, is it?
It’s also a little weird that when I scroll back on my scroll button, it’s zoomed in and towards its zoom-out. I wish I could swap that since this feels unnatural to me.
But those are pretty much the only two points I have a bit of beef with.
Besides that, I don’t really have that much to write about. Everything is functioning, the gameplay or how-to is very straightforward, etc. A pretty simple, yet enjoyable game
Overall, I’m happy to jump in and work on various-sized paintings. Just in short bursts of sessions. It’s pretty great to play on the side while listening to a podcast or a creepy pasta. Just brain off and pretty colours on. And if in doubt, at the time of writing this, there was still a demo, so if you like diamond painting irl or want to give it a try, go for it.
Just know that a constant clicking, square-by-square, is not comparable to holding a little tool irl. But hey, all good. It’s still fun, and the images I’ve completed so far are pretty; it makes me happy to see them finished. And I guess that counts for something. So, a careful thumbs-up for this one, it is.
A small one VS possible the biggest one of all levels:
