THEGAMER VIDEO OF THE DAY

10 Ooblets

  • Available on: PC, Xbox, Nintendo Switch

First up on our list, we have Ooblets. This is a casual and fun farming sim where you also get the chance to have dance battles with ooblets. Everything about this game is bright and colorful; you can even find uniquely colored ooblets that are brighter than their normal counterpart.

The cast of characters in Ooblets are all bursting with color. The mayor of Badgetown wears a little rainbow top hat that sits on her bright pink pigtails. If you are looking for a relaxing and colorful game, Ooblets is the right choice.

9 Splatoon Series

  • Available on: Nintendo Switch

Splatoon games are some of the most colorful out there. This third-person shooter allows you to become an Inkling (or an Octoling) and essentially ‘paint the city’. Instead of shooting bullets, you shoot paint in an attempt to cover the arena in your color.

At the end of a game, the winner is determined by how much of their paint color is present. The goal is literally to be the most colorful. In addition, the NPCs you can find in the game are all unique and brightly colored; the popular Squid Sisters are neon green and neon pink.

8 Super Mario Odyssey

  • Available on: Nintendo Switch

When we talk about colorful games, we can’t skip Super Mario Odyssey. While all Mario games are pretty bright, Super Mario Odyssey takes it to a new level. This is one of the newer games in the Mario series, taking us through different kingdoms with Cappy, Mario’s hat-mate.

The first kingdom is relatively dull and dark, but once you start exploring, the whole world practically explodes in color. Maps like the Luncheon or Sand Kingdom are pleasingly bright, filled with bold buildings and citizens.

7 Project Diva Series

  • Available on: Playstation, PC, Nintendo Switch

Project Diva is a rhythm game based around the one and only Hatsune Miku. If you want to listen to great Vocaloid music on brightly colored stages, this is the game for you. Miku herself is smart, but each song has a unique stage and costume.

In addition to Miku, you can perform songs with Kagamine Rin and Ren, Kaito, Meiko, Megurine Luka and other popular Vocaloid figures. While there is no real storyline in Project Diva, it is a great way to relax and enjoy some music.

6 Temtem

  • Available on: Playstation, Xbox, PC, Nintendo Switch

Temtem is one of the newest entries on our list. This game combines the monster-catching aspects of Pokemon with an MMORPG, creating a world where you can tame Temtems and battle other players.

In Temtem, you can tame cute and colorful creatures to fight alongside you. This game has a similar color palette to Ooblets; bright colors that are a bit muted yet show how colorful the world is. If you are a fan of Pokemon, you should definitely give Temtem a try.

5 Muse Dash

  • Available on: iOS, Android, PC, Nintendo Switch

Muse Dash is another rhythm game. In Muse Dash, you have to move to the beat of the song and defeat enemies that stand in your way. This is the ultimate simple rhythm game; there are only two buttons that you will use while playing.

Despite its simplicity, Muse Dash has a bright and retro look. Like Project Diva, there isn’t much story in Muse Dash, but it makes up for it with stunning visuals.

4 Autumn boys

  • Available on: Playstation, Xbox, PC, Nintendo Switch

Fall Guys was first released in 2020 and took the world by storm. It seemed like everyone was playing this cute and colorful battle royale game. Fall Guys is incredibly smart for no reason, but it works.

3 Gris

Gris is a short and sweet platform game. On average, this game takes about four to five hours to complete, but there is no shortage of beautiful and colorful landscapes.

The main character of this game, named Gris, has beautiful blue hair. While exploring as Gris, you will travel through areas that are soft and colorful. Above you can see how even though there are only a few colors it still feels bright and vibrant.

2 Ori and the will of the wisps

  • Available on: PC, Nintendo Switch, Xbox

Ori and the Will of the Wisps is another platform game, similar to Gris. Unlike Gris Through, this game is bold with its bright colors. Rather than mute the colors to look softer, get bright greens and purples to create beautiful landscapes.

The graphics in this game are absolutely stunning. The bright colors don’t feel forced; instead, they seamlessly bring you into the fantastic world the game takes place in.

1 Astroneer

  • Available on: PC, Nintendo Switch, Xbox, Playstation

Last but not least we have Astroneer. This is a sandbox adventure game where you take on the role of an astronaut who has just landed on a new planet. In the beginning you only see a green field with some plants.

Soon you’ll be able to start exploring the rest of the planet to its core, as well as other nearby planets. The landscape of these planets is bright and colorful, giving it a truly ‘otherworldly’ atmosphere. With bright pink foliage and purple dirt, everything feels unique and foreign to you.
