This furry adventure is delightful, though I needed a guide because I got lost super quick. This game doesn't hold hands, and may need a little notepad at times so you can remember things like how to get through a labyrinth and how to leave it too. If you started getting into adventure games, retro gaming, or looking for somewhere to start, then this is excellent for that. I would have loved to see more in this world.
I loved Wallace & Gromit as a kid, still do as an adult, and this game is delightfully simple and lets me fondly remember the show. It's a straightforward point and click and the stakes couldn't possibly be lower, but that's part of the charm of each episode.
This FPS is an interesting blend of military shooter (like Soldier of Fortune or classic CoD) and arcade shooting. The problem is there's nothing particularly interesting here aside from Steve Blum's surprise performance. The shooting isn't as satisfying as most games out there, even at the time, you're limited to weapons given to you at the beginning of each stage, and the shotgun is one of the least satisfying weapons in the game. If they had Soldier of Fortune violence or BLACK destruction or Resistance weapons then it could have stood out a bit. But instead, it's basic and bare.
I sat and watched all the show, and movie with my dad and we became Aardman fans. Coming into this game when my dad is no longer with us brings me a cozy nostalgia and joy that I know he would appreciate. If you're a Wallace & Gromit fan, you'll feel right at home here.
