The amusing animated Wallace and Gromit series will be making an appearance on GameCube, in a new action/adventure game.

The evil penguin Feathers has incarcerated all the baby animals in the zoo in order to persuade their parents to do his bidding and manufacture gems from the coal being mined using the incredible diamond-o-matic.

Cue Wallace and Gromit, with a daring and devious plan of using a 'Trojan Penguin' to enter the penguin's lair.

You take control of Gromit and race through five enormous action packed levels (with 24 sub levels and mini arcade games) covering eight different 'animal houses' in the zoo.

There will apparently be loads to do, with each level bursting with inventions designed to challenge the mind and fill every level with fast paced fun including: the Porridge Gun, Coal Flinger, Banana Launcher and Knitting Machine.

This game certainately sounds interesting, but will it play well? We shall see...

The game will be developed by BAM! and released this October on all platforms.
