Passpartout: Starving Artist in IOS

You can become a great artist!

Walkthrough, Guilds, Tips on this special game

Our Expert Score

84/100

Passpartout: Starving Artist is a hilarious and often stressful simulation of the art world. The core loop of painting your own 'masterpieces' and then watching rude NPCs critique them is endlessly entertaining. The game does a great job of making you feel the pressure of paying for your wine and baguette addiction while trying to maintain your artistic integrity.

The touch controls are perfect for the painting mechanic, making it feel like a digital sketchpad. As you sell more art, you unlock fancier galleries, but the customers only get snobbier. It’s a brilliant commentary on the subjectivity of art—what one person calls trash, another might buy for thousands of francs. If you've ever wanted to live the life of a struggling French artist without the actual hunger, this is the game for you.
