Super cute and more engaging gameplay than the first one :) also, peak dialogue (I drew a painting of the knight from hollow knight and when a character wanted to buy it he said “I stare deep into the abyss”)

Before I played Passpartout 2, I hated France, sucked at art, and was absolutely hopeless. Nothing changed, but the game was pretty good.

Be an artist! In Passpartout 2 you’re Passpartout. No, not the white border around a piece of art in a frame, but a little frog-like person named Passpartout. You’re and artist. And a lost one at that. What does that mean you ask? Well… You’re a sell-out. There, I said it. You’re willing to sacrifice the art of art for money. And in this sequel, a few things changed, but not that much from my review compared to the first game. I’m a sellout… again? Yes, you are. I’m sorry. But maybe you can carve your way out to choose who you’d like to sell out to? If you’re fine with that, welcome to the game! In Passpartout you pick up a brush and sometimes other tools to draw onto your (digital) canvas to create a piece of art. Abstract, classical, futuristic, modern and more – it doesn’t matter at first. You create what the tools allow you to do and in the way you like to. Once finished, you place your freshly crafted piece of color on canvas in you humble “store”. A simple pop-up one for minimum requirements. Other people from around you will start showing up and offering you money. Depending on if you hit their taste and a lot of other (never explained) factors, they’ll either offer you money or simply criticise your life’s work. Selling out to a specific group more than another, will send you on a journey down that road, where your customers will get to know you for your style and demand for that style will rise. So no matter what you do, you better keep creating… After all, you’re a sell out and there’s no way around that! The same game again? Not quite. If you played the first title, you’re more used to a stage-play scenery and a static location to exist in. But in this title, the developers went all out and created a 3-dimensional island for you to explore. People will have quests for you, canvases are not of static size, shape or a canvas at all and there’s interactions with different objects all around. This is a chill game that runs on most modern machines and target at bringing you a bit of joy through it’s subdued story telling. You’ll most likely enjoy this game if you don’t take the critics to serious and simply find your way by drawing image after image, never losing your creative drive. If you get stuck it gets tough, that’s art. But luckily the island is pretty open and you can just go somewhere else, earn a bit of money there and they progress the main story another time. Just don’t scare away, there’s always someone who would buy your art. It’s just a matter of when and at what price you’re willing to let go. Mon dieu! Is this really a game for me? If you manage to earn some monies, you’ll no longer be a lost artist. But to get there, you’d have to play this first and find enjoyment in it – and that’s honestly a tiny bit hard… because it’s art! This game is mostly for those of us players, that like to simply sit down, waste a bit of time and doodle on the side, maybe having an inkling of art in our blood from the get go. For another group of players, this game could prove frustrating at times, because the act of creating art can be slow, tedious and if you have no ideas or inspiration, you’re likely to end up being slowed down by the sometimes very ambiguous and random requirements that customers have towards your work. This is also the biggest fault of this game, because the only way to tell what your customers want are the vague hints they drop in their criticism. Sometimes they can be very direct, sometimes they simply like anything you do, but most often you’ll have no clue what else to do and feel like there’s no agency over the situation. BUT, in the end, this game teaches a lesson: Everyone can be an artist. Because no matter how dumbfoundingly you approach your drawing exercise, there’s always some progression and the limit is your own creativity and skill. In that sense, it’s actually very realistic, because you don’t choose your customers or who attributes you fame... even if some endings make you think so. You also don’t choose what others like and you can’t magically see what they expect. This realism makes this game actually good, but also is its biggest downfall in the sense of being a game. The fresh touch of having a somewhat open island to explore, different districts and a more leisure, flexible and less static playstyle than the first make this game a fitting improvement over the first game. It still has some of the same flaws and a lot of the same strengths, but improves well over the general concept and offers enough to validate buying this one along or over the first one. The concept remains novel, though I hope that for a 3rd instalment, there might be a bigger mix-up of the idea. Maybe a more free-style graffiti type of thing alongside the current system or a world-tour setting. Maybe simply a more distinct tutorial about how to see what people like and an iconographic way of telling what you have and what they want. There’s still air towards the top and still art to be made!
