The Smell of Cheese

Wallace and Gromit: Sprocket Rocket @ Kongregate
Rated E

For those of you who are unfamiliar with Wallace and Gromit, the dynamic duo can be summed up as British claymation characters who feel a great passion for inventions and cheese.





Their attempt to launch themselves to the moon leads us into a game of collecting sprockets and inventing gadgets for their spaceship. While the two characters don't make much of an appearance, the gameplay is surprisingly entertaining and good for the noggin.


The controls are fabulous; there's no lag to speak of and it's impossible to crash and destroy the ship. (Believe me, I tried.)
There's no baddies to speak of either; just good old fashioned brain teasers.
The interactive ship editing program is similar to that of the Nintendo DS light. You just draw what you want on the screen.

     Inventing has never been so easy.

Because the focus is on solving puzzles and not on keeping the spaceship intact, this truly is a worthwhile brain game.

Controls: 10/10
Graphics: 6/10
Challenging Gameplay: 7/10
