Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.
About
Mini Painter is a cozy idle desktop game about finding the balance between work and rest.
Immerse yourself in a meditative world where a tiny painter colors tiny figurines, decorates their home, and learns to take care of themselves.
Decorate the room, buy new geeky items, and boost your little painter’s creativity.
The more creativity they have, the better their miniatures will turn out.
Each painted miniature brings you closer to your ultimate goal: a long-awaited vacation... Or maybe skip the vacation and just keep painting?

Features:
Unhurried progress: take your time creating the perfect geeky room.
Work and rest balance: don't overwork your artist, or he'll burn out. But don't let him relax too much either, or he'll lose his motivation.

24 unique miniatures: Unlock packs of figures, each one a direct nod to a famous character.
Skill growth: The more experienced your character becomes, the faster they work.
Pixel art in isometric view: That warm 2000s vibe, right on your desktop.
Around 70 hours of meditative gameplay.

Super chill little passive isometric desktop game, whats not to love? Its like having a pet human in the corner of my screen while i work lol, like if you could be emotionally attatched to clippy. the only negative thing i can say is that i wish it had more depth, maybe like the ability to interact with more stuff, the ability to take a break from working. Cant move it to a different monitor which, I dont know if thats my PC's issue or the game, minor issue though. But all in all, The isometric view, pixel graphics, simple and passive game design is very comfy and has huge potential, by that i mean, you could take this games template and swap it out for maybe a guy whos broke and out of shape to well-off and fit, or maybe a student whos failing classes to a high performing student, you could even allow the user to choose what they major in or something.
Very slow progression and you're too forced to interact with the game, even though there's only one button to press. I love the art style and the general theme of it, but it's not the classic Idler that you put on the bottom of your screen to focus on your work while you make satisfying progress. And it seems like buying better stuff doesn't really give you any benefits or rather it's quite unclear what they really improve.. For example, the bed, which is supposed to provide the greatest relaxation, actually makes the character recover even more slowly than just standing around... So yeah.. Now that I have it, I'll collect the achievements, but I can't really recommend it. In addition, the game has been abandoned (Developers call it "finished") even though there would have been still some things to fix about it.

Ещё один день, когда жалею, что нельзя оставить нейтральный обзор, потому что игра и не прям ужас-ужас, но и не что-то выдающееся. Строго говоря, это вообще не совсем игра - активного геймплея тут только тыкать на стол раз в сколько-то времени, чтоб тот не ленился и работал работу (на меня б кто так тыкал периодически, было бы славно) и покупать что-то из вещей, когда на них накопится достаточно денег. Короче, простенький и не особо затягивающий айдлер, который заинтересовал меня по большей части тематикой - я тоже художник, так что иметь миниатюрный домик, где такой же хиккан-художник живет свою жизнь и потихоньку копит на хотелки, пока ты занимаешься тем же в реальной жизни, даже как-то забавно. Как итог: если хотите игру про художника, то вам не сюда, но если любите айдлеры, которые можно включать, пока сам занят каким-то делом на соседнем (или даже том же мониторе) и вас не смущает очень медленное развитие и получение ачивок, то почему бы и не попробовать. 1-2$ со скидкой как по мне - адекватная цена для такой "игрушки".
I a mini painter and this simulator caught my eye. If you like idle, casual games... this is for you...
Great idle game! Highly recommend
I enjoy working my way through unlocking all the figures and upgrades so if you're looking for a harmless distraction and love painting miniatures, this is worth it for some simple amusement. It's fun to unlock the upgrades and planning out what I'll work towards next. Ultimately, this game is kind of like a Tamagotchi widget that you check in on from time to time. Your mini-painter never dies though, as far as I know. It's a neat idea and I would like to see a full mini-painting simulator in this pixel-art style.
it is hardly a game. 200 hours of play is a lie (took me 45, but could be finished faster). overall it is cozy. watching your dude do stuff and works in between.
Awesome! I want more! 10/10!
