This game is currently in the Humble Choice for August 2023, this is part of my coverage of the bundle. If you are interested in the game and it's before September 5th, 2022, consider picking up the game as part of the current monthly bundle.
A lovely Art Simulator.
Not to make this review about me, but I’m not very artistic, especially traditional art. I hate painting and drawing, and I inflict my programmer art on every new employee who joins my team at work and I take a silent joy in doing so. Sufficient to say art is not my thing.
After playing an hour of Such Art, I found myself enjoying drawing. Well not enjoying but at least having a good enough time that I wouldn’t mind continuing. There are enough unique suggestions and requests, that I found myself having fun even with my lack of ability. The desire to build a gallery, the chance to challenge myself, and painting mechanics that are unique and good. In addition, if you have a tablet, the game claims you can use that for the art if you prefer.
On the other hand, this is a simulator game, it’s more focused on the game mechanics than the art. If you want to go create art, use Krita or Gimp, or some other art program. But this is more about the experience of being an artist, and it does well with that. There are limitations to what you can use at least at first, but that can also push you to do something even better with the limitations and most of the limitations will make you a bit more inventive.
Pick this up if you love art, and want to play a game focused on creating art. The game also allows you to feature and display the art in a virtual gallery, take pictures of it, and have a real sense of pride in what you create. I’ll be honest, I’m not going to be returning, but I’d still recommend this to anyone who enjoys artistic pursuits because it’s not you, Such Art… it’s me. Also, I didn’t really love Passpartout: The Starving Artist, but this game is definitely speaking more to me, but if you enjoyed that title, this is definitely for you.
