Please, Touch the Artwork

Released: 9/3/2022

What happens when you DO touch the artwork? Part Zen-puzzle, part narrative-adventure, you'll explore the secret world behind iconic abstract paintings through over 160 puzzles (2~3 hours of gameplay) spread over 3 unique games. An aesthetic journey to the origins of modern art, set to a soothing jazzy soundtrack. + FUN ART FACTS! The first game tells the origin story of pure abstract art. It’s a challenging puzzle where you’ll add colors and lines to a canvas to recreate paintings. The second game is about Boogie & Woogie, two squares who just want to be together, but a rapidly growing world is making this harder and harder. You’ll help Woogie reach Boogie by figuring out how the obstacles influence Woogie’s path. In the third game you’ll move to the big city, only to be overwhelmed with mixed emotions. From joy and excitement to feeling homesick and missing your friends and family. You'll be maneuvering through the craziness of the Big Apple while collecting letters to form a poem. Three different games in one Simple controls Casual gameplay Fit for ages 13-99 No time-pressure, Zen-like Relaxing music Iconic universal art Fun art facts Quotes Lighthearted and bittersweet stories Calm but compelling Hints when stuck Over 160 levels 2~3 hours gameplay Coming Soon (no extra cost) - Infinite zen mode where you can play an infinite amount of puzzles at a certain difficulty - Screensaver mode: Impress your friends by putting the game on as a screensaver that auto-generates full-screen paintings at a chosen interval
