I'm not entirely sure how this would be as a game...

2018 Looks very strange... idk what this is even about

Yeah... the trailer isn't so revealing. It's a point and click game with a focus on the surreal artistic work. I'm not sure that there's all that much focus on plot or explaining what is going on. I'd love to play it actually.

I found the following quote on a review that seemingly explains it very well:
"[The Many Pieces of Mr Coo] has the feeling of a half-forgotten cartoon you watched on holiday when you were a kid, and its constant artistic flourishes are absolutely the main event here". A game where the player is "pulling at a lever to make an old Punch and Judy show kick into life, you often feel as if your role is simply to interact with things in order to motor along more gorgeous, dreamlike visuals".
