After purchasing Paint By Numbers 15, I was completely disappointed. The graphics were extermely simple, and the game was finished in no amount of time.

Still, when 16 was offered today, I immediately purchased it. Why? Because it came out so fast after the last one - it had to be for a reason. I was NOT disappointed.

Still, when 16 was offered today, I immediately purchased it. Why? Because it came out so fast after the last one - it had to be for a reason. I was NOT disappointed.

The graphics are much more complex and enjoyable. Very few simple "plate" shapes & more florals and fun pictures.

I was especially touched to come upon the Ukraine graphic, and I'm happy to once again recommend Paint By Numbers.

Thanks to the developers for listening and responding so quickly to our concerns. Show less

I recommend this game!

I like them better than the other "coloring games". Distinct outlines and no a lot of tiny color specs. I'm old so its easier on my eyes :)

I recommend this game!

Just finished the demo and have this on my buy list. I thought the pictures were fine. There are one or two childish ones at the very beginning but the rest were more complex and the coloring goes smoothly. You can change colors at will and the thing I like is when you pass over a tiny bit to be colored it shows the number of the color so you don't have to keep expanding the size of the picture.

I recommend this game!

I have several of these games but I will think twice about buying another. Do the makers of the games have to pay for the colors they use as the palette in the games is getting paler and paler. There are very little vibrant colours and the actual canvases are mostly for children with the same motif as previous games. COULD BE A LOT BETTER!!!

I don't recommend this game.

I like these because they don't require much thought and are a relaxing way to pass time, however this one is a little boring. Have not finished the entire game as I am only on level 2 but so far not so great. A child might like possibly

I don't recommend this game.

The BF synopsis says "The newest Paint By Numbers collection is here to inspire your creative side!" What game should we have this developer play to "inspire" his creative side? With every new Paint by Numbers game released, I'm certain the images will be more "inspiring" than the previous game because surely this developer has noticed the shift from 5-Star reviews to multiple reviews with a single Star rating? Surely, this developer has read our reviews to try to pinpoint what mistakes were made...inspirationally speaking, of course!

This is a painting game, therefore, the selected images and color choices are critical, if these 2 aspects are missing, the game becomes worthless! If this was a HOPA game, you could get by with a mediocre storyline as long as the graphics are amazing or the features are entertaining. If this was a Time Management game, you could get by with less than stellar graphics as long as the time management aspects are fun to play. If it's a Painting Game, there isn't a secondary aspect, it doesn't have puzzles or hidden object scenes, and it doesn't have a story to distract the player from the focal point of "painting by numbers". A painting game can get by with the most basic of features...if the images are interesting and the color choices have curb appeal...this game has neither!

Most of the images are tiny pictures within a circle in the middle of the page, why would you not choose an image that includes the background as well? Some of the images are coloring book images for toddlers, is the developer trying to reach an audience that can't yet write a review?

Even when you do come across an image that finally looks appealing and appears to have plenty of detail, you soon realize that the colors are dreadfully boring. Apparently, this developer is fond of tan, orange, and greens...all of which are shades you see in magazines showing a 1960's house with yellow and green appliances!

The colors are always beautiful in The Woods! Join me at my new forum where you can find or share gaming tips and even create your own pixel art: thewoodsforum.boards.net ☯

More juvenile boring subject matter, too many black lines, same drab ugly colors. Even the peacock and Mexico pictures, which should be bright and beautiful were drab with "off" colors. Still have to complete first level to get to the others.

The good things: Hint, Counter, Color Wheel to change background, Zoom, Free Color feature.

If you love beautiful colors, interesting detailed images, good variety of subject matter, you won't be happy with Paint By Numbers. If you enjoy very simple and quick painting and aren't into all that, this will be perfect!

It took 3 attempts to submit this review. BF hesitating to investigate the broken review page because apparently not enough gamers have reported it. What a pity!! Not right!! Show less
