The Claymation exploits of Wallace and Gromit move from Academy Award-winning short films to PlayStation 2 in a title that has players guiding Gromit (with his loyal owner Wallace tagging along) in a quest to free imprisoned baby animals. It seems the conniving penguin Feathers McGraw has enslaved the zoo's critters in order to unearth valuable gems to fuel his beloved Diamond-O-Matic. The result is an adventure spanning five main levels of exploration, puzzle solving, and the trademark humor for which the series is known.
The diabolical penguin has incarcerated all the baby animals in order to persuade their parents to do his bidding and manufacture gems from the coal being mined using the incredible diamond-o-matic. Wallace & Gromit have smelled the fishy presence of Feathers and developed an elaborate plan to infiltrate his domain. And so the indomitable duo has to construct the integral part of their scheme, the Trojan Penguin. When the giant wooden bird is placed at the zoo gates Feathers' narcissistic personality embraces the 30-foot tribute and makes it the zoo centerpiece. Unbeknownst to Feathers, Wallace & Gromit reside in the Trojan Penguin complete with resplendent standard lamp and armchair. At night the pair can start their amazing adventure.
As players venture deeper into the different sections of the zoo, they'll advance through a total of 24 sub-levels and an assortment of mini-games. As in their series of films, Wallace and Gromit make use of a variety of inventions to assist them in their journey, including such devices as the Porridge Gun, Coal Flinger, Banana Launcher, and Knitting Machine. Gromit can also perform head spins, backflips, and tiptoe around to avoid the zookeepers, monkeys, and/or henchmen trying to stop him. Fortunately for players, the duo will be able to cover more ground in certain areas by hitching a ride on springy boots, a mine cart, toboggan, and gyrocopter.
