Discover the whimsical world of The Great Sneeze, a new point-and-click adventure game developed by Studio Monstrum, now available on Android. This game adds a unique twist to the genre by centering its chaotic storyline around an art gallery thrown into disarray by an incredibly powerful sneeze.
Really? The Great Sneeze Causes Chaos?
While a sneeze might typically be dismissed as inconsequential, in The Great Sneeze, it's the catalyst for upheaval at an art exhibition. The narrative unfolds just before the grand opening of a Caspar David Friedrich exhibition, where players join three friends—Kaspar, David, and Friederike—as they tackle the aftermath of this disruptive sneeze.
Initially assisting the curator, Mr. Dietzke, with last-minute preparations, the trio soon finds themselves amidst a whirlwind of chaos as the sneeze sends paintings askew and the exhibition into disarray. The climax of this pandemonium sees Friedrich's iconic Wanderer above the Sea of Fog embarking on an impromptu tour through the gallery's other artworks.
The mission for Kaspar, David, and Friederike is clear: chase down the wandering figure, solve a series of clever puzzles, and restore the exhibition to its former glory before the opening ceremony. The Great Sneeze offers a delightful blend of humor, absurdity, and charm, making it a must-try for fans of point-and-click puzzle games.
The Visuals Are Amazing!
Given its thematic focus on Friedrich's art, The Great Sneeze serves as an engaging introduction to the painter's work. The game's visuals successfully emulate the ambiance of a real art museum while maintaining a playful tone.
With its lighthearted puzzles, the game encourages players to delve into the details of Friedrich's paintings and enjoy the humorous exchanges among the three protagonists. Developed with the backing of major German museums, such as the Hamburger Kunsthalle, Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden, and Staatliche Museen zu Berlin, The Great Sneeze showcases a rich collaboration between the art and gaming worlds.
