Ever wondered what chaos a single sneeze could cause? In The Great Sneeze, a new Android game by Studio Monstrum, a sneeze does just that—turning an art gallery into a whirlwind of disorder. Set right before the grand opening of a Caspar David Friedrich exhibition, the game follows three friends, Kaspar, David, and Friederike, who are tasked with fixing the mess.
Really? The Great Sneeze Causes Chaos?
In The Great Sneeze, what starts as a routine day helping curator Mr. Dietzke with final preparations quickly spirals out of control due to an unexpected sneeze. Paintings shift, and the meticulously arranged exhibition falls into disarray. The most dramatic casualty is Friedrich's iconic Wanderer above the Sea of Fog, which embarks on an unintended journey through other artworks. The trio must chase down the wandering figure, solve clever puzzles, and restore the exhibition before the doors open to the public.
This game offers a delightful blend of humor, absurdity, and charm, making it a standout point-and-click puzzler. Curious? Take a peek at the teaser below.
The Visuals Are Amazing!
With The Great Sneeze revolving around Friedrich's art, it serves as an engaging introduction to his works. The game's visuals beautifully capture the essence of an art museum while maintaining a playful tone. The puzzles are simple yet 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.
