About Painting Werther
Painting Werther is the paintable novel adaptation of The Sorrows of Young Werther, written by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe in 1774.
Loved by artists and emperors, it shows the inner struggle of a deeply romantic man.
Before starting this unique experience, prepare yourself to:
- Bring passion to a colorless world.
- Paint like the greatest masters of old.
- Pick flowers to your unrequited love...
Come with us on this Paintable Visual Novel to see another version of this legendary story.
Was young Werther really a romantic? Or was he just a man with a death wish?
How deeply did he really love his friend Wilhelm? Maybe his letters hide some clues...
Did he even love Charlotte? Or did he just love the idea of an unrequited love?
For all these questions and more, Mad Cream Games presents you an overloading artistic experience, full of brush strokes and ink spots, where Chopin play the sax and Mozart the guitar, where love turns into hate, and pity into madness:

Put your headphones on and follow a classic romantic story accompanied by art in different styles. Despite the fact that I had to click on text in order to advance the game, I never felt as like I was playing a visual novel. It is so distinctive that it practically requires a new definition. Another difference is that you are not drowned in a wall of words that serves simply to prolong the plot. Fair enough, there isn't much of a narrative in this game. It features a traditional love tale where a man falls in love with a woman who is already promised to another. All this with words of a painter who is writing letters to his friend. Words are accompanied by paintings or images that come in a variety of styles and themes. Some components in the picture move or let you interact with them because a static image would be quite dull. You might need to drag the mouse to paint something or bring the sun down to make it night. Most interactions are necessary to advance the game. Moving the mouse over areas of interest will quickly reveal them; the default quill icon will change as a result.

Interesting adapted story, beautiful and animated art, and great music. For fans of interactive novels and/or fans of the Romantic era! While some parts could be more polished, it faithfully and greatly adapts the epistolary novel that influenced the Romantic movement into game form with nice remixed music from the era and the classical paintings coming to life at a click from your mouse. The interactivity within the novel is restrained but never feels boring giving life to the drawing on display. Overall, would absolutely recommend this to anyone just to experience the life of the man presented to the audience. I can not wait for more from Mad Cream Games!8 found this helpful
