Ever wondered what chaos a simple sneeze could unleash? In Studio Monstrum's new Android game, "The Great Sneeze," a seemingly ordinary sneeze turns an art gallery into a whirlwind of madness. Set just before the grand opening of a Caspar David Friedrich exhibition, this point-and-click adventure follows three friends—Kaspar, David, and Friederike—as they tackle the aftermath of a sneeze-induced disaster.
The trio is initially helping Mr. Dietzke, the curator, with the final touches when disaster strikes. Paintings shift, and the meticulously planned exhibition crumbles. The iconic "Wanderer above the Sea of Fog" embarks on an unexpected tour through Friedrich’s other artworks, prompting Kaspar, David, and Friederike to embark on a mission. They must chase down the wandering figure, solve clever puzzles, and restore the exhibition to its former glory before the doors swing open to the public.
"The Great Sneeze" is a delightful mix of humor, absurdity, and charm. It's not just about the puzzles; it's about enjoying the whimsical interactions between the characters and the playful chaos they navigate. Check out the teaser below to get a glimpse of this unique point-and-click puzzler.
The Visuals Are Amazing!
Given that the game revolves around Friedrich’s masterpieces, "The Great Sneeze" serves as a wonderful introduction to his art. The visuals beautifully capture the essence of a real art museum, while maintaining a lighthearted and playful tone. The puzzles are simple yet engaging, requiring players to pay close attention to the details within Friedrich’s paintings.
Developed with the support of major German museums, Studio Monstrum utilized data from institutions like the Hamburger Kunsthalle, Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden, and Staatliche Museen zu Berlin to craft this unique experience. "The Great Sneeze" is available for free on the Google Play Store, making it an accessible and entertaining option for Android users.
