To be honest, the first time I saw this "My Favorite Color", I was stunned. Not because of how stunning it is, but because I suddenly remembered the days when I was curled up in bed using a stylus to color black and white line drawings bit by bit in the Saipan era more than ten years ago. At that time, the mobile phone screen was pitifully small and the colors were pitiful, but the sense of concentration and satisfaction I still miss when I think about it now.
Not to brag, this game actually restores that pure fun to a great extent. It is essentially a coloring puzzle, but its content is rich in categories, from anime characters to landscapes and architecture, from cute pets to abstract patterns, which can basically cover most people's aesthetic preferences. What I like most is its pre-puzzle mechanism - first puzzle to unlock the album, and then color. This design is quite clever. It connects the two gameplays in series, and it has a bit of a puzzle-solving flavor, not the purely mechanical coloring. 😌
Talking about the game itself, the operation is very intuitive. Click on the color and apply the area, and you can complete it by sliding your finger. And the color matching is very comfortable, and there is no fluorescent color that hurts the eyes. For those with disabilities, there is no time limit and no need to be precise. If you make a mistake, you can erase it and start over at any time. This kind of low-pressure, high-freedom experience is exactly what many mobile games currently lack. You know, most of the games on the market now are either boring or fun. There are really not many games that can make people calm down and slowly kill half an hour.
The platform is 5.0, and the developer is Kesheng Network. To be honest, I have never heard of this company before, but it can make a free game so clean, with no advertising pop-ups and no in-app purchase traps. This alone deserves praise. After all, many stand-alone games are now offering recharge to unlock levels. Truly free, complete and open games like this have become a scarce resource. 👍
Of course, there are areas for improvement. For example, the fineness of the line drawings varies, and the outlines of some patterns are too thick, making it feel a bit blurry after painting; there are currently about fifty or sixty illustrated books, which for heavy coloring enthusiasts may take three or four hours to finish. I hope to continue to update the content in the future, or add a community sharing function so that everyone can show off their works.
Overall, "My Favorite Color" is a casual piece that is not stunning but very comfortable. It won't give you an adrenaline rush, nor will it keep you up all night, but it will allow you to stop and focus on doing a simple thing when you're scrolling through your phone until you're numb. Just like when we played Snake and Tetris back then, happiness is so direct.
It is highly recommended to the following types of players: those who like to draw but have handicapped hands, those who are stressed and want to relieve stress, or those who simply want to find a small game that does not burn their brains, money, or time. On a weekend afternoon, make a cup of tea and open this game, which may bring you back a little bit of the state of mind you had when you were playing games when you were young. 😊
