Artist Colony is a casual game that combines elements of time management with Sims-like aspects. You start with only two characters, but then, as time goes by and your artist colony grows bigger, you get to control more characters, each with its own specific traits and needs. You don't only have to care for your characters' requirements, but you also make use of them to help your colony stay maintained and grow bigger and richer.
As its title suggests, the game is about maintaining a colony of artists. Therefore, you will find plenty of art-related elements like artistic buildings, workshops, galleries of masterpieces, and so on. This rather unique theme and the original game storyline make Artist Colony a pretty distinct casual game that manages to stand aside from the crowd of many other similar games of the same genre.
You can also play the game in a fullscreen or windowed mode, change the music and sound volume, and pause the gameplay at anytime you like. The visuals are cute and cartoonish, as it's a typical casual game after all. As for the gameplay, Artist Colony is both addictive and challenging, as managing 10 or 12 characters at once won't be simple and easy for anyone.
To conclude, if you like casual time management games and you're looking for something rather original, Artist Colony looks like the right choice for you.
