Really? The Great Sneeze Causes Chaos?
Ever thought a simple sneeze could wreak havoc in an art gallery? That's exactly what happens in The Great Sneeze, a new point-and-click adventure game by Studio Monstrum for Android. Set just before the grand opening of a Caspar David Friedrich exhibition, the game introduces us to three friends: Kaspar, David, and Friederike.
These friends are tasked with fixing the chaos unleashed by an incredibly powerful sneeze. What starts as helping curator Mr. Dietzke with final preparations quickly turns into a whirlwind of disarray. Paintings shift, and the carefully curated exhibition crumbles. The climax? Friedrich’s iconic "Wanderer above the Sea of Fog" embarks on a wild journey through other artworks.
The trio must chase down the wandering figure, solve a series of clever puzzles, and restore order before the exhibition's doors open to the public. It's a mix of humor, absurdity, and charm that makes The Great Sneeze an engaging point-and-click puzzler. Take a peek at the teaser below.
The Visuals Are Amazing!
Given its setting, The Great Sneeze serves as a delightful introduction to Caspar David Friedrich's masterpieces. The game's visuals successfully capture the ambiance of a real art museum while maintaining a playful tone.
The puzzles are simple yet engaging, encouraging players to pay close attention to the details within Friedrich’s paintings. Additionally, the humorous interactions among the three main characters add to the game's charm.
Developed by Studio Monstrum, the game received support from prominent German museums. The developers drew upon data from institutions like the Hamburger Kunsthalle, Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden, and Staatliche Museen zu Berlin, enhancing the game's authenticity and educational value.
