Free Garten of Banban coloring pages: 31 printable PDF designs of characters from the mascot horror video game series. Every page can be downloaded as a PDF to print or colored online in the browser.
Garten of Banban is a survival horror game developed by the independent Canadian studio Euphoric Brothers, first released on January 6, 2023. It belongs to a genre often called mascot horror, where colorful, toy-like character designs are paired with a genuinely unsettling premise. The story follows a parent searching an abandoned kindergarten for their missing child, only to be pursued by the building’s former mascot characters, now corrupted. Friendlier characters like Jumbo Josh and Opila Bird guide the player, while figures like Banban and Stinger serve as the game’s antagonists. Because the character designs look bright and toy-like despite the horror storyline, it’s worth knowing the source material going in, particularly for a younger colorist.
This collection gathers fan-made illustrations of the franchise’s characters for printing and coloring. These are unofficial designs and are not affiliated with, licensed by, or endorsed by Euphoric Brothers.
What Is Inside This Collection
Nearly all 31 pages use general titles like “Free,” “Printable,” or “Coloring Page” rather than naming a specific character, so most of the collection functions as a general set of Garten of Banban-themed portraits rather than character-specific pages. One page stands out by name, a group scene bringing multiple characters together, giving fans of the wider cast a single page that isn’t a solo portrait. Because the source material spans both friendly guide characters and more unsettling antagonists, the actual designs across this set likely reflect that same range, even though the titles themselves don’t specify which is which.
What Garten of Banban Coloring Pages Do
Character line art builds fine motor precision. The rounded shapes and simple outlines typical of mascot-style character designs give a colorist a manageable set of areas to fill in, the kind of practice the American Academy of Pediatrics associates with fine motor development.
A chance to check the source material together. Because this franchise pairs a cute art style with a genuinely horror-focused game, coloring a page is a natural opening for a parent and child to talk about what the actual game involves before assuming a colorful character design means kid-friendly content throughout. This kind of conversation matters more here than with most licensed characters, since the visual style and the actual content are unusually far apart.
A calm activity separate from the game itself. A 2005 study in the Art Therapy Journal found that structured coloring lowered anxiety more than unstructured drawing, and coloring a favorite character on paper is a much lower-intensity activity than playing the horror game it comes from.
Franchise character recognition. For an older fan already familiar with the series, sorting out which pages represent friendly guides like Jumbo Josh versus antagonist characters is a simple way to engage with the franchise’s cast beyond the screen.
How to Color Garten of Banban Coloring Pages Well
- Friendly characters: lean toward warmer, brighter colors, Yellow, Orange, soft Blue, to match the more approachable designs of guide characters like Jumbo Josh and Opila Bird.
- Antagonist characters: use deeper, more saturated tones, Red, Dark Purple, Black accents, to reflect the more unsettling design of characters like Banban and Stinger.
- Kindergarten backgrounds: use muted, slightly worn colors, Faded Yellow, Dusty Blue, rather than bright, cheerful tones, matching the abandoned setting the games are built around.
- Group scenes: vary each character’s color palette clearly so every figure stands out individually rather than blending into a single dominant color.
- Outline work: keep line work in solid Black, which suits the bold, simplified mascot-style character designs better than a softer gray outline.
