The Many Pieces of Mr. Coo is a surreal point & click adventure game. Mr. Coo is trapped in a strange, nonsensical world, and he needs your help to get through it. But first of all, he needs to find all his pieces and put his body back together again! I’m sure there’s some philosophical struggle behind all this nonsense, but between giant chickens, crazy robots and one-eyed ladies, it’s a little hard to tell.

The Many Pieces of Mr. Coo is an amazing and colourful 2D cartoon world, telling a surreal and whimsical story, full of absurd humour, quirky characters and crazy situations, as well as challenging players with innovative puzzles. Without a doubt, this is a new take on the adventure game genre that will appeal to veteran players and newcomers alike.

Mr. Coo and this game are creations of acclaimed artist Nacho Rodríguez. 2D animator and director nominated for the Goya Awards for his short film “A lifestory”. He was also the animation director of the game O.zen at Ubisoft. Mr. Coo is his most famous character, having appeared in several hilarious short films.

• Tons of absurd humour! Look, we’ve already told you we’ve got a giant chicken, we can’t push the machine any further…
• A surreal, enigmatic, symbolic and meaningful world, but also touchingly silly!
• Amazing hand-drawn cartoon-style 2D animation
• Quirky and lovable characters like the Giant Chicken, the Faun or the Axolotl
• An innovative take on the point & click genre

“He had already been appearing years ago in the form of animated shorts and music videos, but in the form of a video game he could achieve more vital intensity, interactivity, putting the player in his skin… You would have to ask Mr Coo why did he so eagerly wanted to be born, but we know he doesn’t speak in words.”
