The value story

The lowest price on record is $14.99, set in May 2025. Its cuts run 30 percent off as a rule. There have been 24 in the 3 years tracked, about 6 weeks apart. $8.03 is what it would take to make this a BANGER, and nothing in its history goes that low.

On value it sits in the top 6 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 94 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 98 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Yaoling: Mythical Journey ($7.99, scores 80) beats it on value, while it beats PLAYNE : The Meditation Game ($14.99, scores 60).

4 of the 360 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written April 2023 to September 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 85 percent of the 140 reviews written there were positive, against 95 percent overall, and those are 11 percent of everything written about it.

It carries Valve's Deck Verified rating and runs 4.8 hours, about as long as a handheld game wants to be.

This has easily become one of my favourite games! While I haven't played the first game, this has convinced me to check it out after I 100% this. The ONLY thing I wish this game had was the ability to zoom in on what you are painting. And, quite honestly, it's a miracle that my laptop is capable of running this.

So relaxing and fun. I wasn't sure if I'd like this game when I initially bought it since I'm not that great at art (yet) - but the mini tasks are so fun and let you turn your brain off and just create for the sake of creating. It's helping me get my confidence back to make things even if they're bad but to have fun no matter what. Highly recommend!

I've played Passpartout since the original protoype version on itchio. This game has come so far, and pretty much all of my complaints of the first official game have been cleared up here. This verison has so much more creative freedom, tools, and more. The ability to walk around to different people and sell your art where it'd be a bigger hit or miss is wonderful, though I am heavily missing the ability to just...
