SAN RAFAEL, CA, July 29, 2009 — The final episode of Wallace & Gromit’s Grand Adventures releases today, completing a four-month escapade that has taken the famous inventor and his faithful pooch through a madcap series of wild and engaging new stories. Available today for PC at www.telltalegames.com, “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 neighbor 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 distained 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!
