Life’s about simple pleasures: painting pictures, shooting a few rounds of mini-golf, and smashing cities. Maybe that last one isn’t so simple—but these three games certainly are.

In Simile, imitation isn’t about flattery—it’s the key to peaceful, absorbing gameplay.

Finger painting
Simile lets anyone paint a masterpiece. Instead of looking at the bigger picture, the game zooms in on small portions of it, challenging you to replicate a reference image. Pick from a palette of colors, then paint with your fingers. Complete a square and you’ll move on to the next section, gradually connecting them into a larger gallery-worthy piece.
There’s no need to be a solo artist either. Friends can join your session and help out. Simile is extremely relaxing, but if you feel a competitive itch, load up the Arcade mode and paint under a timed challenge.]]>Cortis ClarkBlog2019-01-07T10:53:10-08:00http://save-the-machine.com/blog/files/b07a2de7c2d447569b90fb5d8f2eee39-5.html#unique-entry-id-5http://save-the-machine.com/blog/files/b07a2de7c2d447569b90fb5d8f2eee39-5.html#unique-entry-id-5iOS Icon Gallery.

Simile is the painting game that brings the powerful "Grid Method" used by the ancient Egyptians and mastered by Leonardo da Vinci, Vincent van Gogh, and M.C. Escher into the modern age.
