Swatch This is a color naming game for 2-8 players, featuring real, outrageous paint swatches. Real-life paint colors aren’t just called yellow or pink or blue, they’re much more evocative and fun. So a yellow-gold might be “Sunny Side Up,” a bright pink “Sweet Sixteen,” or a blue “Fountain.” In Swatch This you’ll create your own color names, as serious or silly as you want. The other players in the match are making up names too, so at the end everyone will try to pick out the real name from the made-up ones. Guess the right name and you'll get points — fool another player and you’ll get more! Swatch This features multiple game modes. - Online turn-based multiplayer: play a Quick Match with a random opponent, or a private match with 1-7 friends - Pass & Play: play on a single device by taking turns - Pen & Paper: play on a single device by writing color names on paper, like a board game There are no consumable in-app purchases. Play unlimited matches in all game modes for free. If you enjoy the game, please consider buying the Palette Pack to permanently unlock many more color swatches.
