Story

Felicity Flitt's aunt absolutely loathes the Prickly Thicket golf club; therefore, Gromit helps Wallace join the club as a way to curb Felicity Fitt's new-found unrequited love for Wallace.

PC Dibbins, is envious that Wallace was admitted into the club. As a result, he threatens to enact a bylaw that states that the club must actually have a golf course. However, the club, in fact, does have a golf course, but none of the members know where it is, as the deed is missing. Using his detective equipment, Wallace manages to find the deed, but discovers that the entire town was built over the golf course. A vengeful Duncan McBiscuit, the current Club Chairman, decides to have the town destroyed in order to rebuild the course. Wallace challenges Duncan to a golf tournament so that he may become chairman, and thus gain the right to tear up the deed, saving the town from destruction. Wallace manages to win with Gromit's help.

However, as he goes to tear the deed, the security system traps him and the other townsfolk in a room; Gromit is forced to disable the trap and free everyone. At the end of the game, Wallace finally is able to tear up the deed. As well as this, Felicity decides to become romantically involved in Duncan instead of Wallace.

Gameplay

The Bogey Man follows a similar gameplay design to other Telltale adventure games such as the Tales of Monkey Island series and the Sam & Max series. Players interact with the game's world by collecting and combining items, as well as talking to other characters, to progress the story. The game also makes use of a variable hint system controlled by the player in the Options Panel - players can change the intensity and detail of the amount of hints the game gives the player when they are stuck.

Additional Information

Peter Sallis, the actor who lends his voice to Wallace in all of the Wallace and Gromit films, does not return as the voice of Wallace in any of the Grand Adventures games. Instead, Aardman Animation's official back up voice actor for Wallace, Ben Whitehead, voices the character instead.
