Adventures are coming in all shapes and sizes these days. The same week we get The Next BIG Thing, we're also treated to Colibri Games' The Tiny Bang Story, now available through select digital distributors.

A combination of Samorost-style puzzling and casual item collection, this wordless Russian adventure tells the tale of a planet broken literally into pieces after being hit by an asteroid. Over the course of five chapters, players must explore its colourful remaining locations for the scattered planetary puzzles pieces, along with tools and parts to sove the many puzzling obstacles encountered along the way.

While retail versions of the game are expected soon, for now The Tiny Bang Story is available only through portals such as The Adventure Shop, Steam and GamersGate. If you'd like to try before you buy, an 85 MB demo is available for download from the developer's website.
