"Great Sneeze: Classic Art Puzzle Adventure Launches"

Ever thought a sneeze could cause chaos in an art gallery? That's the premise behind The Great Sneeze, a new point-and-click adventure game on Android developed by Studio Monstrum. This game takes a whimsical approach to the usual genre formula, setting its chaotic storyline just before the grand opening of a Caspar David Friedrich exhibition.

Really? The Great Sneeze Causes Chaos?

In The Great Sneeze, what might seem like a trivial sneeze turns an entire art exhibition upside down. The game follows three friends, Kaspar, David, and Friederike, who are tasked with fixing the ensuing mess. Initially, they're assisting Mr. Dietzke, the curator, with final preparations. But then, a sneeze sends everything into disarray, with paintings shifting and the exhibition falling apart.

The most dramatic moment comes when Friedrich's iconic Wanderer above the Sea of Fog embarks on an unexpected 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. It's a funny, absurd, and charming point-and-click puzzler that you can preview below.

The Visuals Are Amazing!

Given that The Great Sneeze revolves around Friedrich's work, it serves as an engaging introduction to his paintings. The game's visuals successfully capture the ambiance of a real art museum while maintaining a playful tone. The puzzles are simple and lighthearted, focusing on the details within Friedrich's artworks and the humorous interactions among the three main characters.

The Great Sneeze was developed by Studio Monstrum with support from major German museums, including the Hamburger Kunsthalle, Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden, and Staatliche Museen zu Berlin. This collaboration ensures an authentic representation of the art world within the game.

You can experience The Great Sneeze for yourself by downloading it from the Google Play Store, where it's available to play for free.
