'The Many Pieces of Mr. Coo' (PS4) Announced - Screens & Trailer

The Many Pieces of Mr. Coo is a surreal and fully animated quirky 2D point & click adventure.

Mr. Coo has a problem. He lives in a weird, surreal world full of strange creatures, scary monsters and a mysterious lady with two enormous eyes. They all seem to have one goal in mind, make his life difficult while all he wants is to open that shiny big red box that he is sure hides some kind of treasure...

Mr. Coo is stuck in a weird, nonsensical world, and he needs your help to get out of it – but first of all he’ll need 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 colourful 2D cartoon art fully animated 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. 


Key Features:

  • A fresh take of the point’n’click graphic adventure genre
  • Astounding hand-drawn 2D cartoon artstyle
  • A surrealist, whimsical world, symbolic and full of meaning – but also heartwarmingly silly!
  • Meet wacky and lovable characters like the Giant Chicken, the Faunus or the One-eyed Woman
  • Lots of absurd humor. Look, we already told you there are giant chickens, we can’t stress this enough
  • Directed by acclaimed 2D animator and director Nacho Rodríguez, nominated to the Goya Awards for his previous work 

Mr. Coo and this game are creations of Nacho Rodríguez, a Spanish animator nominated to the Goya Awards for the Best Short Film category for his short film “A lifestory.” He also was lead animator of the game O.zen at Ubisoft. Mr. Coo is one of his most celebrated characters, having appeared in several hilarious short films.  In this truly unique adventure, Rodriguez wanted to create a video game that embraces classic 2D animation like classics such as Dragon's Lair did in the past. 

The Many Pieces of Mr. Coo will be released on PS4 in early 2021.
