Ever wondered what chaos a single sneeze could cause? In *The Great Sneeze*, a new Android game by Studio Monstrum, a seemingly simple sneeze turns an art gallery into a whirlwind of disarray. This point-and-click adventure unfolds just before the grand opening of a Caspar David Friedrich exhibition, where three friends, Kaspar, David, and Friederike, are tasked with fixing the mess.
Really? The Great Sneeze Causes Chaos?
Yes, you read that right. A sneeze might not sound like much, but in *The Great Sneeze*, it's catastrophic. The game starts with the trio assisting Mr. Dietzke, the curator, in the final preparations. Then, out of nowhere, a sneeze sends the entire exhibition into chaos. Paintings shift, and the meticulously arranged display falls apart. The most dramatic casualty is Friedrich's famous "Wanderer above the Sea of Fog," which embarks on a wild journey through other artworks. Now, Kaspar, David, and Friederike must chase down the wandering figure, solve clever puzzles, and restore order before the exhibition opens to the public.
This game is a delightful mix of humor, absurdity, and charm, wrapped up in a point-and-click puzzle format. Curious? Take a peek at the teaser below.
The Visuals Are Amazing!
With *The Great Sneeze* centered around Friedrich's work, it serves as an engaging introduction to his art. The game's visuals beautifully capture the essence of a real art museum while maintaining a playful tone. The puzzles are lighthearted and engaging, focusing on the details within Friedrich's paintings and the humorous interactions among the three protagonists.
Developed by Studio Monstrum with support from major German museums, the game leverages data from institutions like the Hamburger Kunsthalle, Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden, and Staatliche Museen zu Berlin. This collaboration ensures an authentic and enriching experience.
