Once again Aardman creates a great movie and has a great game. The Story is mostly the same, but this time Victor steals Wallace's device to turn wildlife into were creatures to make everyone hate them, and he can come in to hunt them down and save the day, great alteration from the movie to make it adapt into a game well. The Graphics of the game are good, they are a well blend of looking like the film and looking like there's more to explore. The Gameplay has you do your job as a pest controller, when big story events are not happening, you switch between Wallace and Gromit except at night, where the 2 playable characters are Gromit and Hutch, catching pests by sucking them up into sucking drains to capture them is very fun and around town and different places stop it from being repetitive, even if the other character's AI doesn't help you catch pests, it only helps you at all when you do something that NEEDS 2 players. Also, you don't just do that you can help other people around the town for cards, they don't amount to anything important, but they are fun to collect. You may say why you still succeed even though the vegetables have been bitten and can't be in the contest and yet stopping the pests afterwards is seen as a success, but the game would be too hard if they didn't, so it's only a light problem compared to other games. But I don't understand how Winnie Bago can turn day to night. But you get to do a few story tasks to go back to the day and access a new area, the same goes on until the vegetable competition. Where not only can you fly a coin operated plane, but also fire at Philips plane too, that doesn't make sense because they are fairground rides, but this game has a lot of good in it that great stuff can overshadow stuff like that, but it must be great to the point where hating a game for that would feel unfair. Music is very soothing and puts you at ease before the challenges happen. Wallace and Gromit have taken the fun stuff from the film, and made them the focus for gameplay, bringing together another great kid's game by Aardman's ideas.
