About Coloring Book : Color By Number

Coloring Book: Color By Number is a relaxed pixel art game. Every picture is a grid of squares, each marked with a number, and every number belongs to one color. You match them up square by square and the image slowly fills in. There is no timer and no way to lose, so it works as something to do for a few minutes or for a long quiet sitting. The game is also known as Pixel Art Book.

You can color by tapping single squares or by dragging across a run of matching ones, and three brush sizes let you cover more ground when a region is large. Five power-ups help with the slow parts, either by locating squares you have missed or by filling areas faster. The game can also take a photo you import and convert it into a color-by-number picture of your own. Finished pieces are kept in a My Work section. A premium option opens all artwork and categories.

Published by Playgama, it works in portrait or landscape. It suits anyone who wants a calm, low-pressure activity, and people who enjoy coloring books or tidy, methodical tasks.

How to play Coloring Book : Color By Number

Pick a pixel picture and fill each numbered square with its matching color until the whole image appears.

  1. Choose an artwork. Subjects include animals, food, transport, environments and characters, and they range from quick pictures to detailed ones.

  2. Select a color, then tap the pixels that carry its number, or paint across them in one stroke.

  3. Change the brush size between 1x, 3x and 5x to suit the area you are filling.

  4. Use a power-up when you are stuck or want to go faster. The choices are the Finder, the Bomb, the Paint Bucket, the Magic Wand and the Rainbow Brush.

  5. Finish the picture and find it later under My Work. Progress saves on its own, so you can stop partway.

Tips and strategy

  • Use the 5x brush for big blocks of one color and drop to 1x for edges and single stray squares.
  • Finish one color completely before moving to the next. It is easier to see what is left that way.
  • The Finder is meant for pixels that are hard to spot, so keep it for the last few missing squares of a color.
  • Start with a quick, easy picture to learn how painting across pixels feels before opening a detailed one.
