Like any good simulator game, you know exactly what you’re getting into here. You’ve got a lot of work ahead, and though you might not enjoy it, you won’t be able to easily put it down. Spray Paint Simulator is a simple yet compelling zen garden, a Sunday morning job perfectly captured in game form. I don’t recommend it, but I don’t really have to. If this calls to you, I’m certain that you’ll answer.

Spray Paint Simulator is rewarding and relaxing in the same way that PowerWash Simulator is, with you bringing new life to a range of objects and locations. Some jobs are better than others, though, and it can be finicky when it comes to completing some smaller part of jobs, but it's still thoroughly enjoyable on the whole.

I truly wish I had better things to say about Spray Paint Simulator. I do have good things to say: it’s really chill, the graphics are vibrant, the painting gameplay is great, and the options cover a good amount of possibilities. Unfortunately, the game is weighed down by its clunkiness and lack of story. (Yes, even a game about spray painting needs a story.) I would like to say I will go back to it, but I’m left wondering if I’ll ever feel that itch to return.

Spray Paint Simulator is the best game in its very specific genre that I've ever played so if you want to relax and paint things, play it, chum! 🎨

Spray Paint Simulator provides tens of hours of content if you’re happy with the repetitive nature. For Power Wash Sim fans out there, this scratches the same itch with the same satisfaction. I’ve exhausted all the campaign missions now, and there are options for co-operative play, but sadly, they are limited to the free-spray mode for now. I’m sure as time passes by, the development will add more content and future updates to the game. I’d love to be able to run through the campaign with a friend eventually, but it’s great that the foundations are there for even more. I spent nearly 30 hours with this one, and it is well worth checking out with your wallet or even through Xbox Game Pass.

Spray Paint Simulator has some technical gaps that keep the game from flowing just right, but on the whole, it’s a well-conceived simulator that can easily keep you flowing for hours.

Worth your time

Spray Paint Simulator is a great way to kill a dozen hours of simluation gaming, and hits all the same beats Powerwash Simulator does. Buyer beware, though: if you’re looking to paint with a pal, co-op is free-paint mode only and can only be unlocked once you complete the respective level in campaign mode. Going solo, though, Spray Paint Simulator is a sure thing for Powerwash Simulator fans.

Even though I had to start again and there were broken achievements, I still had a lot of fun with Spray Paint Simulator. I hope that North Star Games has lots of DLC planned for it because I need more. With it being on Game Pass, it’s well worth spending a relaxing afternoon in the sun painting your car. With the curtains closed, of course.

There are games that force you to work, and as a reward for your work, you receive peace of mind when you see everything done well. That's what happens with Spray Paint Simulator, the latest from North Star Video Games and Whitethorn Games, where using our paint gun can be a most enjoyable experience. Here there is no time, no story, and no other related entertainment.

I played the demo of Spray Paint Simulator a few months back, and the game has been on my wishlist ever since. I am happy to report that it was worth the wait, and I can only hope that the developers will release many DLCs for this game. If you enjoy meditative painting and washing games, you’ll love Spray Paint Simulator as well!

Spray Paint Simulator is decent fun. I do not know if the devs have any DLC planned post-launch. As is, there is enough here once you’re done, I think most will have enjoyed their time and be ready to move on.

While Spray Paint Simulator shares similarities with games in the Simulator genre, it manages to feel distinct thanks to its emphasis on masking and preparation. It’s one of the few games in the genre that requires players to take the time to protect certain areas before starting their work. This mechanic not only adds realism but also creates a deeper, more immersive gameplay experience. The variety of tools, combined with the game’s focus on both creativity and precision, offers a refreshing freedom often seen in other job simulators to a degree. At the same time, Spray Paint Simulator delivers that deeply satisfying feeling of completing a job well done while making it both relaxing and rewarding.
