Crazy adventures are best enjoyed before five o'clock tea.

Wallace & Gromit’s Grand Adventures, the most British of all Telltale's episodic adventure games, is now available for up to 70% off on GOG.com! You can have it for as little as $6.99 until Thursday, September 6 at 10:59 AM GMT.

The British everyman Wallace and his canine companion Gromit might be the biggest celebrities ever made from modeling clay, but the adventures that lay before them in the four episodes of this game are even bigger. They'll be starting a honey delivery service, running an underground holiday resort, chasing after a rogue dog-catcher, and participating in a golf tournament--now ain't that GRAND? Sure it is, when you apply the Wallace-logic to every single of those tasks. Things are bound to go in all unexpected directions, offering many opportunities to exercise the specific British humor.

Wallace & Gromit’s Grand Adventures bundles the whole series of episodes produced by Telltale: Fright of the Bumblebees, The Last Resort, Muzzled!, and the golf-centric Bogey Man. True to classic adventure games spirit, the game also manages to capture the charm of the stop motion clay animation original so well that it will leave you with a craving for tea and biscuits!

Are you British enough to handle Wallace & Gromit’s Grand Adventures? Find out now, with a discount up to 70%! Head to the promo page for details.

same i am a wallace & Gromit fan and for 70% off this is bloody mad. I know i shouldnt but.

It's a 4-3 year old game depending on which episode and still 9.99 if you only buy one game - the full price, of course, is even more ridiculous. Why are Telltale so greedy with their prices? I just don't get it.

A 'no buy' for me. I'll just watch a Let's Play on YouTube.

Edit: And, being British, I'm one of the world's biggest Wallace and Gromit fans. Pity Nick Park chose Telltale to make the games.

I'm not a fan of adventure games but I'd buy it if it's full of humor.

So, am I going to laugh a lot playing it?

Don't like the control scheme. Telltale had ditched regular point and click for consoley console controls with these games, a perfectly stupid move for the genre.

Plus, the interest of Wallace and Gromit is stop-motion plastiline animation. CGI defeats the point a bit. Not the same charm.

However, devil's toybox devil's toybox yayy sam and max.

I was disappointed when I saw a trailer of it ages ago. Wallace and Gromit IS stop-motion Plasticine. CGI was beyond stupid and probably why, overall, the game didn't do as well as you might have thought.

But it was still a good game. I played all episodes and loved every bit of them. The story/dialogues are top notch and this is Wallace & Gromit.

The puzzles are well-thought and nothing too difficult.

Meh. Neverhood is closer to W&G than all the Telltale efforts...

I already have the answer: after 2 years and almost 20,000€ spent in England to pass my degrees in order to become a solicitor, and 2 years of unsuccessful applications for a training contract without a single interview, I have come to the conclusion that you cannot be British unless you are British by birth.

I bought if from TellTale some time ago and enjoying it, I really like the style which looks soooo close to the show! :)

Just like in any other country.

I am British. By birth.

I now live in Thailand. As much as I love Thailand, I will never be Thai. The Thais make sure of that. We are even called 'farang' here - meaning a foreigner who is 'white' :)
