The Sandpainting Game, Version 2
Download this game from Microsoft Store for Windows 10, Windows 8.1. See screenshots, read the latest customer reviews, and compare ratings for Falling Sand Game. Burning Sand 1, 2 and 3 Burning Sand is a particle simulation game. You can draw many different elements in a sandbox and all these elements are going to react and create new elements.
Try out Sandpainting Game, version 2, which has several features that differentiate this game from the Original Sand Painting Game, including:
- Try the 'random' option and see what you get
- Try changing the size of your 'brush' for different effects
- Change the amounts of falling particles, or set to '0' if you want to control everything on the screen
- Change the speed of the movement of the various particles
- An easy 'clear screen' option if you want to start fresh
There is no end or goal of the game other than to create interesting patterns and have fun. A good starting point is to use the 'wall' element - which is activated at the start of the game. We put 'C-4' and 'Torch' conveniently next to 'Random' in case you want to quickly destroy what 'Random' gives you!
Just for fun, try our other 'digital sand' activities - our new Sand Painting Art Maker and of course the Original Sand Painting Game!
As you can see by these samples below, you can create just about any type of 'sand art' with this Sand Painting Game! If you want to make a drastic change to your game, either click here to start over or use the 'C-4' along with the 'fire' element to clear your game area and start with new elements!
If you would like to share your 'Sand Art' with us, take a screenshot, save it as a jpeg, and send it to us so that we can add it to our Sand Painting Art Gallery!

A falling sand game is a genre of video game and subgenre of sandbox games using a two dimensionalparticlegame engine.
The user can interact with (e.g. place and remove) particles on a canvas which can interact with other particles in various ways, which can lead to complex emergent behaviour.[1] As Sandbox games, they generally have an emphasis on free-form gameplay, relaxed rules, and minimal goals.[2]
History[edit]
| Title | Year | Platform | Details |
|---|---|---|---|
| Falling sand game | 2005 | Java | A.K.A 'Hell of Sand' or 'World of sand'. Presumably the first game of its type[3][4][5][6] |
| wxSand | 2006 | PC | The first standalone version[7] |
| Powder Game | 2007 | Java, HTML5, Android, iOS | Multi-platform with liquid simulation[8] |
| This is Sand | 2008 | Flash | Added changing the colour of the sand[9] |
| The Powder Toy | 2010 | Windows, Linux, OS X, Android | Has liquid simulation[10][8] |
| The Sandbox | 2012 | Flash, PC, Android, iOS | A whole game franchise going into 3D as well[11][12] |
| Cortex Command | 2012 | PC | A side-scrolling action game [13] |
| Noita | 2020 | PC | A hybrid of 'falling sand' style game with a Roguelike[8][14] |
The first known popular example in the 'falling sand' genre was a web-based Java applet on the Japanese Dofi-Blog in 2005[3][4] which was later expanded and rehosted as the 'Falling sand game',[4] which kick-started the genre as a trend and gave it its name.[15][5]
The genre is not limited to free play canvas-style games; games such as the 'Powder Game' contain additional mechanics, such as pressure based fluid simulation[citation needed] allowing for example water equalisation, and RPG elements such as controllable characters.
Noita blends the traditional sandbox physics with Roguelike RPG mechanics, with sophisticated playable characters and enemies.[16][17][14]
