Ever thought a sneeze could wreak havoc in an art gallery? That's the premise of The Great Sneeze, a fresh point-and-click adventure game on Android by Studio Monstrum. This title takes the classic formula and spices it up with a storyline filled with chaos, all triggered by a monumental sneeze.
Really? The Great Sneeze Causes Chaos?
Yes, you read that right! In The Great Sneeze, a seemingly harmless sneeze is powerful enough to upend an entire art exhibition. The game is set just before the grand opening of a Caspar David Friedrich exhibition, and you follow the adventures of three friends, Kaspar, David, and Friederike. Their task? To fix the mess caused by this disruptive sneeze.
Initially, they're assisting Mr. Dietzke, the curator, with the final touches. But then, disaster strikes with a sneeze, causing paintings to shift and the meticulously planned exhibition to crumble. The chaos reaches its peak when Friedrich's iconic Wanderer above the Sea of Fog starts a journey through the other artworks. The trio's mission is to chase down the wandering figure, solve clever puzzles, and restore order before the gallery doors open to the public.
This game is a delightful mix of humor, absurdity, and charm, making it a must-try for point-and-click puzzle enthusiasts. You can get a sneak peek at the game below.
