Original adventure game created by Swedish development team Idol FX and awarded the Dutch "Cinekid New Media Award 2002". The player can take on the role of Gasta's little soul and save the cheerful place from the temptations of a sinister, gloomy clown. The clown stopped the magical clock, which brings laughter and joy to the inhabitants of the funfair. He turned it into a gloomy shadow of former glory, and clown soldiers, instead of entertaining visitors, scare them away. Our hero has to run the clock again and get rid of the nightmare. Many puzzles await to be solved, thanks to which Gast will gather magical stars and with their help will be able to fight against the clown....

Like Grim Fandango and Jack's Christmas, the atmosphere of Gast is unique and the plot is intertwined between reality and children's fairy tales. The game uses characters and places found in fairy tales, but it gives them a darker, more ominous look. The action is shown fully three-dimensional graphics (refined, pre-rendered, three-dimensional locations, three-dimensional characters, etc.), and the attractiveness of the game is additionally enhanced by special film effects, surrealistic perspective and atmospheric audio setting.

  • A non-linear adventure game.
  • Fantastic characters and events.
  • Interesting puzzles that can be solved in many ways.
