Sunday Time Killer


Wallace & Gromit: Sprocket Rocket



  Today's Sunday Time Killer is a game called "Wallace & Gromit: Sprocket Rocket". Dirty Title, Fun Game. This game is a puzzle game where you control a little tiny ship that's trying to collect little sprocket gears... but there's a catch. For a majority of the sprockets, a puzzle needs to be completed.. a puzzle where you literally freestyle draw a contraption that is connected to your ship that helps you solve the puzzle. Got a weight on a sprocket? Try a little hook that extends out. Sprockets buried under some rubble? Use the torque tool to sweep them away.

  • Concept - Wallace and Gromit need to collect sprockets to be able to blast off into space, but puzzles and blocks stand in their way.
  • Gameplay -9.4/10  One of the best online games I've played in a long time, many ways to complete the puzzles, though sometimes you'll end up drawing something that won't fit through a doorway, and then you'll have to back track to the drawing board.
  • Graphics - 9/10 Nothing super fancy here.. the designers really have put together an environment that immerses you in a test facility-like setting
  • Audio - 7.5/10 The main music gets a bit repetitive, and the air sounds when you change directions become mind numbing. But what is in the game "Works"  
  • Replay Value -  High
