Summary
Wallace and Gromit may be the most unlikely heroes ever created - the cheese-loving plasticine man and his dog have been on countless journeys together, and this Grand Adventures pack bundles all four parts of the successful episodic adventure series.
The gameplay follows the same trademark style as Telltale Games’ previous episodic adventure titles, including Tales of Monkey Island and Strong Bad. Controlling Wallace and Gromit, players will have to explore the surroundings and follow clues in order to solve puzzles that will reveal the conclusion of each self-contained episode.
In Fright of the Bumblebees, Wallace's idea for accelerating his honey business' growth with supersized flowers has unintended side effects. Wallace attempts to save his bumbling honey business, through the growth of extra large flowers. When these giant flowers lead to an unintended consequence — giant bees! — Gromit steps in to save the town from the angry swarm.
In The Last Resort you have to wonder - will the perfect holiday turn into the perfect crime? When unrelenting rain ruins their holiday plans, Wallace & Gromit bring the beach to 62 West Wallaby with a makeshift resort — in their basement. Keeping customers satisfied is tricky business, especially when one of them is clocked on the head by an unknown assailant. Whodunnit? Find out... with a little help from Wallace's latest invention, the Deduct-o-matic!
Episode 3 is titled Muzzled, and sees a charity fair come to town following the holiday season. It’s run by a chap called Monty Muzzle, a newcomer in town, who pledges to raise funds to rebuild the local dog shelter. As is always the case, things aren’t always what they seem - Gromit notices that Muzzle is in fact stealing donations and using the strays for manual labour. It’s up to you to confront the sneaky philanthropist and stop him from abusing the town’s trust - and rescue the dogs at the same time.
In Episode 4, The Bogey Man, Wallace is admitted to the oldest country club in Lancashire, Prickly Thicket. Strangely, it seems that the local bobby has a bone to pick with Wallace getting admitted over him, and so hatches a plan to threaten the club with closure. With his investigation skills Wallace discovers much more than the deed to a golf course - but a conspiracy that may lead to the destruction of the town!
