Instead, they can pick a circular color option marked with a letter below the pattern on a canvas that floats in front of an image of the interior of Gloria's home.
The player doesn't need to use a virtual needle or paint each cell on a gray-and-white pattern individually. Instead of traditional cross-stitch floss, the game uses a paint-style medium that recreates the appearance of crossed stitches. Gloria Beaver, a happy weaver, needs the player's help with completing a wide range of cross-stitch pattern designs from several categories (New Year, Magic, Food, Nature, Creatures and My Collection). Beaver Weaver offers a player the opportunity to combine their love of cross-stitch and paint-by-numbers.
