Introducing younger audiences to the world of high-class art can often feel daunting. However, the newly released all-ages point-and-click adventure, The Great Sneeze, offers a fun and engaging way to do just that through its clever use of gamification.
Set within the elegant confines of an art gallery, The Great Sneeze takes players on a journey with students Kaspar, David, and Friederike. Their mission? To enjoy the masterpieces of the renowned artist, Caspar David Friedrich. But things take a chaotic turn when a massive sneeze disrupts the gallery's setup, just before its grand opening. Guided by you, these three young protagonists must work together to restore order before the exhibition begins.
To accomplish this, players will dive into the paintings themselves, solving quick and enjoyable minigames. These puzzles are designed to be bite-sized, ensuring that the gameplay remains snappy and fun, perfectly suited for players of all ages.

As noted in Catherine's review, The Great Sneeze is available now on iOS and Android. While designed for all ages, it's far from being just a children's game. It's packed with intriguing and enjoyable minigames that keep the gameplay fresh and exciting as you strive to repair the gallery.
