Introducing younger audiences to high-class artwork can often seem daunting, but The Great Sneeze offers a delightful solution through its engaging point-and-click adventure format. This newly released game is designed for all ages, blending education with entertainment in a seamless way.
In The Great Sneeze, players step into the shoes of Kaspar, David, and Friederike, three students on a museum trip to view the works of the renowned artist Caspar David Friedrich. Their visit takes an unexpected turn when a massive sneeze disrupts the gallery's setup, leaving everything in disarray. It's up to these young protagonists, guided by the player, to restore order before the grand opening.
The game is set within a high-class art gallery, where players must explore various paintings and solve quick, fun minigames to reassemble the exhibition. These bite-sized puzzles not only keep the gameplay snappy and enjoyable but also encourage players to interact with Friedrich's art in a meaningful way.
Do touch the artwork
If you're reminded of the acclaimed Please, Touch the Artwork, you're on the right track. The Great Sneeze follows a similar approach, celebrating the works of a single artist by inviting players to engage with the artwork interactively.
As noted in Catherine's review, The Great Sneeze is available now on iOS and Android. While it's an all-ages release, it's far from being just for kids. The game offers a rich experience with intriguing and enjoyable minigames, ensuring that players of all ages can have fun while learning about art.
