The 2D point-and-click adventure captures the spirit of the LucasArts classics with hand-crafted pixel art, dark humor and young Gigi, whose approach to problem-solving rarely leaves the furniture intact. The demo features English and German voice acting, and text localization in all 12 languages.*</p><p>When Gigi discovers that her grumpy grandpa Giovanni is a legendary ghost hunter, she reaches a perfectly reasonable conclusion: if ghosts can visit the living, she can visit the dead and bring Grandma home. A talking pumpkin demon called Baron Butt(er)nut is willing to help. Getting Grandpa&#039;s permission is not currently a priority.</p><p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i11Fv5k5rqI\"><u>Watch the new trailer on Youtube: </u></a></p><div id=\"video-1567279b-536b-4711-a203-613db7040f57\" class=\"release-content-video release-content-video--embed release-content-video--contained\">\n    <div><div style=\"left: 0; width: 100%; height: 0; position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%;\"><iframe data-iframely-url=\"https://iframely.net/api/iframe?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3Di11Fv5k5rqI%23_cb1793809453&key=8fe6cdec03482ac31f27a6ae8ea2fb3f\" data-img style=\"top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; position: absolute; border: 0;\" allowfullscreen scrolling=\"no\" allow=\"accelerometer *; clipboard-write *; encrypted-media *; gyroscope *; picture-in-picture *; web-share *;\"></iframe></div></div><script async src=\"https://iframely.net/embed.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"></script>\n</div><p>The full adventure pairs its classic puzzles with modern features like a hint system, a score system, hotspot highlighting and fast travel. <em>Three Headed Monkey Studios</em> put its love of classic adventures in the company name. <em>Daedalic Entertainment</em>, whose adventure history includes the legendary <em>Deponia </em>series<em>, Edna &amp; Harvey, The Whispered World, Ken Follett&#039;s The Pillars of the Earth</em> and many more, knows exactly what kind of company it&#039;s keeping.</p><p>&ldquo;The demo is meant to feel like rediscovering a long-forgotten adventure game from the 90s. Except without the floppy disks. Instead, it blends modern gameplay features with the core of classic point-and-click games: Talking to quirky characters, combining ridiculous items and that leap of joy when a puzzle (finally) clicks into place. We hope you have a great time! Gigi certainly will,&rdquo; says the team at Three Headed Monkey Studios.</p><p>The free demo will remain available after the showcase.
