Sandbox Coloring vs The Endless Forest
Sandbox Coloring
Sandbox Coloring is the very first, pixel art-themed digital coloring book that you can download from Google Play and the AppStore. Back then, the "adult coloring book fad" has not started yet, but there are already quite a number of users, most of which who are adults, who enjoy coloring the many different types of pixel art available. What makes this game stands out though is the fact that it offers a sandbox mode where users can create their own pixel art using the tools given and submit the art to the developer for approval. If everything checks out (such as no vulgar content), then your art may end up in the game!The thing about coloring apps though... they often have subscriptions in addition to or, if you're lucky, in lieu of in-app purchases and ads. For Sandbox Coloring, it has an optional premium subscription service that charges a whopping $7.99 monthly. This is a lot more than what many other similar apps offer. So, you might want to avoid that and instead, show your support by buying art packs instead.
The Endless Forest
The Endless Forest isn't exactly a game but more of a playable screensaver. When your computer goes to sleep, this program will run and your deer character will then appear in a seemingly endless forest. There's no objective or quests for you to complete here. Instead, you are given total freedom to explore the forest and if you're lucky, you may discover something special along the way.However, this is about to change because the developer behind this screensaver program decided to turn it into a full-blown MMO, allowing players from all over the world interact and play together as deers. There's no chat box in the game and instead, you'll need to learn to communicate as deers do, that is through sound and body movement. There will also be more places for you to explore, besides the endless forest, as well as fun and relaxing activities to do.
You can still download the screensaver version of The Endless Forest is you want to get an idea of what the game would be about - It's completely free, after all, but if you want to play the actual game, you might need to wait a bit since the game's still under development.
