### 3/5 — The Width and Length Upgrades

*2025-04-04, version 2.8.0*

When ever I try to unlock my width and length during a run so I can only do that with the bonus rewards from the painting

### 3/5 — Brush problem

*2024-08-21, version 2.8.0*

The paint sprayers  are really hard to move and It’s been a problem since I started playing (1-2 years ago). Please fix this.

### 4/5 — I love this game, but it has a couple of problems

*2023-12-10*

I’m not going to say exactly where it is, but somewhere on the top of the screen there is an invisible button that, if pressed, takes you to, basically, a debug menu thing where you can choose how much money you wanna receive right there and it has the options to turn off ads without having to pay, and you can skip ads automatically. It does have good features like turning off the bright colors for darker ones, which should be implemented already. So I’m just writing this to say that. Good game, tho, fun level ideas, and good design (even though it IS a paintbrush)

### 2/5 — It’s a good game but……

*2023-11-10, version 2.8.0*

Don’t get me wrong I like the gamble but I have been stuck on this level for the longest cuz my spray gun can’t get long enough to get the other side of the painting and it won’t hold to the left or right it just goes straight which makes it hard to get the sides

### 2/5 — Frustrating to complete portraits

*2023-09-21*

The spray guns don’t allow you to move enough left/right to get to the spots you need. Snapping to the middle to start everyone makes it impossible.

Also there are WAY too many ads. I can understand a few but everyone I complete a run is excessive.  

Removing app until these are addressed.

### 3/5 — Buggy

*2023-09-11, version 2.8.0*

It is fun but literally impossible to paint a picture once you get paint gun because it turns so slowly. It makes it impossible to go to further levels

### 4/5 — Suggestion please consider

*2023-09-08*

I suggest you make the paint guns a little easier to move around but when you’re painting the big canvas at the end with it moves very slowly and it’s impossible to paint the bottom of the painting. Other than that everything is good.

### 3/5 — Good but fix the paint gun handling

*2023-08-20, version 2.8.0*

The paint guns go to slow to be able to paint the first corners of the picture

### 3/5 — Alright game but needs better handling

*2023-08-17, version 2.8.0*

The game itself is fun if i am bored with other games but what annoys me the most is that I’m at the point where the paint guns get maxed out and can’t move left or right enough to paint the whole painting. This is annoying and should be a simple fix but overall good game and not too many ads too.

### 3/5 — Meh

*2023-08-16, version 2.8.0*

Hard to move the paint gun so you’re missing out on bits especially the bottom left or right plus it’s easy to max out the paint gun

### 3/5 — Needs more movement

*2023-08-07, version 2.8.0*

It’s extremely hard to move the ‘water gun’ paint brush and that often means I miss corners of my paintings and it’s very frustrating!

### 3/5 — Hard to Maneuver the paint brush

*2023-08-06, version 2.8.0*

why is there so much resistance when painting? especially with the bigger brushes/ spray paint gun? and why does it always start in the middle? makes no sense honestly.

### 2/5 — Has potential

*2023-08-05, version 2.8.0*

Painting mechanic desperately needs to be fixed. I can’t even get the brush to the blank areas anymore. Plus, I’ve hit a weird wall. Powering up during the level was easy enough, but after leaving the app and coming back, it’s impossible.

### 2/5 — Level Glitches

*2023-08-05, version 2.8.0*

There is a glitch on the level i am on and you literally can’t fill in the painting anymore!

### 3/5 — 3 stars

*2023-08-05, version 2.8.0*

It’s a fun game overall but it is not like the videos and a lot of ads

### 3/5 — It was great until

*2023-07-31, version 2.8.0*

I had installed this game it was good but I got to where I couldn’t finish the paintings due to the paint guns mobility so I thought I would reinstall to start fresh then the thing I like most (moving brush side to side) was gone tried reinstalling again but no luck

### 2/5 — literally impossible

*2023-07-31, version 2.8.0*

this game is fun but when you get to higher levels, its literally IMPOSSIBLE to upgrade the brush!!! i’ve even had instances where it gone over the thing AND IT SO ANNOYING. please fix this devs!!!

### 3/5 — Issues with the large paintings

*2023-07-26*

This is more like a 3.5 rating from me but my main issue is how incredibly difficult it is to turn the brushes when you’re doing the classic paintings. There should be an update so wherever your brush is at the start of the painting it stays in that area and not snap to the middle I’ve been stuck on the “Last Supper” art piece for a week due to the lack of mobility in those sections! Please update this soon it’s an overall lovely and satisfying game❤️

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Ads

*2023-08-14, version 2.8.0*

WAY TOO MANY

### 1/5 — Bad

*2023-08-08, version 2.8.0*

To MUCH ADS

### 1/5 — Impossible

*2023-08-03, version 2.8.0*

The paint brush doesn’t move on the actual painting so you can’t finish them cause you can’t reach the edges. Can’t get past the level.

### 1/5 — Not fun anymore

*2023-07-31, version 2.8.0*

It used to be really fun until you get to the higher levels. You can’t paint the sides of the painting because to brush moves horribly. Also no matter how close you are to making the brush longer or wider you never get it. It’s making a relaxing game frustrating. I’m not playing until it’s fixed.

### 1/5 — MUST READ NOW

*2023-07-18, version 2.8.0*

SO Many ADDS I don't even get to play the game would NOT recommend

### 1/5 — It’s a nope from me

Fun at first but becomes next to impossible when you progress in the game. Also WAYYYYYY TOO MANY ADS

### 1/5 — adds

*2023-07-03, version 2.4.0*

### 1/5 — Easy

*2023-07-02, version 2.4.0*

Everyone is talking about how hard it it but I have 9000m money idk about y’all but it’s so easy

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2023-07-02, version 2.4.0*

### 5/5 — Review

*2024-04-03, version 2.8.0*

This is very hard and super fun

### 5/5 — Pretty fun! (One minor issue)

*2023-09-07*

I was playing this game when an add popped up after the ad was over I accidentally found a button that allows you to go into some sort of cheat menu, it’s the money counter, so after I did that the game got less fun and more boring because I got infinite money and no ads. Developers please fix unless intensional.

### 5/5 — Please read

*2023-09-06, version 2.8.0*

You need to add more levels for paint rate and paint power

### 5/5 — Found a bug

*2023-08-23*

I found a bug now I can’t level up without watching ads or buy it with cash a menu popped up an it showed me a glitch that says no ads

### 5/5 — Needs work

*2023-08-09*

Giving 5 so you can read and the developers can do something about this.  First its Fun to play but after awhile its hard to move on. To the point when you have the sprayguns, they wont move laterally enough to get the edges of the paintings so you wont move beyond the the catholic cardinal painting.  Also, tap the money symbol in the top right. Your welcome ;)

### 5/5 — Need update

*2023-08-07, version 2.8.0*

Great game but need an update to get better brushes, etc

### 5/5 — Good game but needs improvements

*2023-07-26, version 2.8.0*

Make paint gun move faster I can’t complete painting when I get paint gun because it moves too slow other then that it’s a good game

### 5/5 — Really good game  but be ready

*2023-07-09, version 2.4.0*

Okay really good game just on level 41 the pic had a women's b00bs good game

### 5/5 — only 5 stars cuz… PLEASE READ

*2023-07-03*

Ok so I only rated 5 stars so everyone could see it before you download!! when you first download the e game it’s so much fun! But then when you get to higher levels it’s literally impossible! so like you have to options to wide it or lengthen it but when you get to higher levels even if your about to get it it will not let you meaning you only have the same paintbrush. Developers please fix this game it used to be fun but now it’s not! Until this is fixed no one should play this game!!!!
