Double-Fine, Tim Schafer's team, released it's second downloadable game last week. It's a game about Russian nesting dolls where you control the smallest of all dolls, Charlie Blackmore. This is a puzzle/adventure game where you must "stack" into bigger dolls to use their abilities and solve puzzles.
The first puzzle's goal was to force some posh dolls out of an exclusive lounge in the train station. There are multiple ways to accomplish this. The first way I found was to use one of the doll's irritated bowels to fart into the ventilation shaft of the lounge so that the dolls inside would run out in agony. The second way I found was to use a mechanic doll to open the shaft, run inside and talk to the host who then forced everyone out because there was an intruder in the private lounge.
The last solution was to grab a sexy widow doll and lure the guard away from the entrance by seducing him with a nice "hip" shake. Not that Russian nesting dolls have hips or anything but he seemed to like it. I then jumped out of the sexy doll and ran into the lounge, talked to the host and have everyone kicked out again.

This is a really cool game, it's got a nice visual style and a good presentation. It's also pretty funny and the puzzles seem interesting. I might buy it later when I finish Dead Space 2.
