Wallace & Gromit Finale Hits Today, Excitement Builds

Today sees the release in the final chapter of the Wallace & Gromit’s Grand Adventures series on PC’s across the Internet.  I know for a fact that the team here at One Last Continue who have played the previous instalments are excited.  Are you?

To quote our friends at Telltale Games, here is the synopsis for the final episode.

The final episode of Wallace & Gromit’s Grand Adventures completes a four-month escapade that has taken the famous inventor and his faithful pooch through a madcap series of wild and engaging new stories.  The finale episode, entitled “The Bogey Man,” puts Wallace’s mechanical and social skills—not to mention his golf swing—to the test. Filled with unrequited romance, hidden mysteries, perplexing contraptions, and a heavy dose of comic relief, “The Bogey Man” brings the series to an exciting climax in grand Wallace & Gromit style.

In the previous episode, Wallace inadvertently got down on one knee before his prim neighbour Felicity Flitt – who interpreted the gesture as a marriage proposal. In a twisted plot true to Wallace & Gromit form, his only chance for a reprieve is admission into the prestigious Prickly Thicket country club, an association disdained by the Flitt family due to a centuries-old dispute. It seems like the perfect escape, but once Wallace is admitted into the club, he learns of a much larger mystery that must be solved to protect the West Wallaby Street lifestyle he and Gromit hold dear.  Built by Wallace and Gromit’s own ancestors, the club itself is a grand machine in the style of Wallace’s own inventions, and its mechanical inner-workings hide a secret that must be recovered to return life back to normal. Only Wallace and Gromit have the technical know-how to unlock the mysteries protected by this contraption to top all contraptions.

We plan on getting our hands on the final code for the episode later on today so expect our last review in the quadrilogy this weekend.  More details on the upcoming XBLA releases of episodes two through four are due to be announced later today, so once we know – you will too.  In the meantime, have some screens!
