If you're into unique mobile gaming experiences, you'll be intrigued by The Great Sneeze, a new Android game developed by Studio Monstrum. This isn't your everyday point-and-click adventure; it's a wild ride through chaos in an art gallery, all triggered by an unexpectedly powerful sneeze.
Really? The Great Sneeze Causes Chaos?
You might think a sneeze is trivial, but in The Great Sneeze, it's catastrophic enough to upend an entire art exhibition. The story unfolds just before the grand opening of a Caspar David Friedrich exhibition, where you'll follow the adventures of three friends: Kaspar, David, and Friederike.
Tasked with fixing a colossal mess, they start off assisting Mr. Dietzke, the curator, in the final touches. But then, a single sneeze sends everything into disarray. Paintings shift, and the meticulously arranged exhibition crumbles. The most dramatic incident? Friedrich’s iconic Wanderer above the Sea of Fog embarks on a whimsical journey through the rest of his works. It's up to the trio to chase down this wandering figure, solve a series of clever puzzles, and restore order before the doors swing open to the public.
The Great Sneeze is a delightful blend of humor, absurdity, and charm, making it a standout point-and-click puzzle game. Here's a glimpse to pique your interest:
The Visuals Are Amazing! ------------------------Given that the game revolves around Friedrich’s masterpieces, it offers a playful yet respectful nod to his art, serving as an excellent introduction to his work. The visuals beautifully emulate the ambiance of a real art museum, while maintaining a lighthearted tone.
The puzzles in The Great Sneeze are straightforward and enjoyable, designed to engage players by focusing on the intricate details within Friedrich’s paintings and the amusing banter between Kaspar, David, and Friederike.
Developed by Studio Monstrum with the backing of prominent German museums, the game benefits from detailed insights sourced from institutions such as the Hamburger Kunsthalle, Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden, and Staatliche Museen zu Berlin.
