✦ AI summary

Paint it Back is a picross game with an appealing premise and substantial content that most players find enjoyable, with particular praise for its puzzle variety and the option to split larger canvases into smaller sections. The main complaint centers around achievement requirements that force replaying already-solved puzzles at different difficulty levels, which some find tedious rather than rewarding. Overall players recommend it as a solid nonogram experience, though opinions on whether it's worth purchasing vary among reviewers.

Its a nice nonogram game. I really like how larger canvases have the option to do them in smaller parts.

The game is good, fun and mildly challenging. There is only one thing I really don't like, which is that for some achievements you have to replay puzzles you've already solved on a higher difficulty, a second time on a lower difficulty... If I get the medal for completing puzzles in the `master` difficuly, they should also count towards the 50 normal puzzles goal

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
