When it comes to introducing younger audiences to high-class artwork, it can often seem like an impossible task. However, gamifying the experience and infusing it with fun can make all the difference. This is the approach taken by the newly released all-ages point-and-click adventure game, The Great Sneeze, which combines snappy puzzles with casual enjoyment to engage players.

Set within a prestigious art gallery, The Great Sneeze follows the journey of students Kaspar, David, and Friederike as they visit to admire the works of the renowned artist, Caspar David Friedrich. Their visit takes an unexpected turn when a monumental sneeze disrupts the gallery's setup, leaving everything in chaos just before the grand opening.

Guided by you, these three young protagonists must work together to restore order before the exhibition begins. To achieve this, players will delve into the various paintings and tackle quick, bite-sized puzzles to ensure every piece is back in its rightful place.

Do touch the artworkIf you're reminded of the acclaimed game Please, Touch the Artwork, you're not alone. The Great Sneeze adopts a similar concept, celebrating the works of a single famous artist by encouraging interactive engagement with the artwork.

As highlighted in Catherine's review, The Great Sneeze—now available on iOS and Android—is an all-ages title that appeals beyond just children. Far from being tedious, it offers a variety of intriguing and enjoyable minigames as players work to restore the gallery.
