    Mr. Coo is stuck in a weird, nonsensical world, and he needs your help to get out of it -but first of all, he needs to find all his pieces and be whole again!

    There might be some philosophical strife behind all this nonsense, but with all the chaotic monsters, crazy robots and one-eyed ladies, it's kinda hard to say.

    With an astounding and colorful hand-drawn 2D cartoon art, and a surrealist and whimsical story, full of absurd humor, wacky characters and crazy situations and innovative puzzles, The Many Pieces Mr. Coo is a fresh take of the graphic adventure genre that will bring together veterans of these gamers and newcomers alike.

    Experiences such as this don’t come along very often: Mr Coo pulls from disparate influences that other games haven’t already done to death, and bobs along on a dream logic that makes sense while you play and then evaporates immediately after. Why did stealing a coin from that one-eyed lady end up giving you a sword to slay a many-eyed crocodile? And how did you end up inside that egg with an unborn chick? It matters not. They are vivid memories now, the kind your brain will randomly turn over, decades down the line when you are trying to get to sleep.

    Those who are looking for visual enjoyment in games will be absolutely enchanted by the originality bordering on the grotesque. Expect, in short, everything. Strange theatre. Odd characters reminiscent of circus performers. Or just a saddled, overgrown chicken! Just enter the world of Mr. Coo's shards and walk with him down paths and off-roads full of surprises and mysteries. The Many Pieces of Mr. Coo definitely deserves your attention. [Issue#331]

    The Many Pieces of Mr. Coo is a visually distinctive product with a great character, but this quality is not always accompanied by an equal brilliance in the realization of puzzles and situations shown on screen. In our opinion, Mr. Coo risks, sometimes, to be a mere style exercise, even if the adventure manages to amuse for its short duration and leaves us undoubtedly impressed by the peculiarity of some situations. These are lights and shadows of a distinctly authorial product, which is certainly worth trying while waiting for a - hopefully - more robust and structured sequel.

    The Many Pieces of Mr. Coo has the atmosphere and beautiful hand-drawn animation of popular 80s cartoons. Mr. Coo is a very sympathetic character and you're immediately drawn to him. But the game is so short that there's no time for it to show his true potential.

    At first the unusual art style and uncanny hand-animated world of The Many Pieces of Mr. Coo feels uniquely captivating, but delve a little deeper and its raw mechanics and unclear puzzle design make for a gameplay experience as fragmented as its protagonist.

    A couple of annoying bugs and a lot of unrealized potential turn The Many Pieces of Mr. Coo into an ambivalent experience, despite its carefully crafted presentation.

    Impressive animation, extreme artistic surrealism, but hopelessly short in length, thus appealing to a very specific audience.

    Nothing unusual, just another extremely surreal point-and-click quest),
    not everything is directly drawn by hand, a combination with real photographs is used, but there are enough funny moments, and the drawing clearly refers to classic cartoons,
    At first I thought that the name meant the versatility of Mr. "Coo", but no, everything turned out to be much simpler) although .. who knows,
    The game, of course, is not as surprising as "Chuchel",
    Just a couple of cute sketches with black humor, on which the author has been working for 6 years, it is ideal to complete it for breakfast in 1.5-2 hours and get a boost of energy for the day, it’s impossible to refund this.
    The difficulty is medium, increasing, but there are hints for each compartment of the level, but not always clear.
