    The first one of this beautiful saga, very entertaining game that doesn't come up as too easy nor too difficult, it's very nice. Animations are well done and voice acting is beautiful, great game.

    What can I say about this game except this game changed my life.
    I met my wife through this game, i proposed to my wife thanks to this game, i would not be the man i am today if it weren't for this game, it changed my outlook on life. I truly resonated with Major Crum's views of the world and he was a sincere and accurate take and comment on the horrors that ptsd and warfare can bring on    What can I say about this game except this game changed my life.

    Confounding puzzles aside, “Fright of the Bumblebees” functions nicely as an adventure game for just about any audience or age group. The humor is varied, the gameplay is accessible, and the challenge is substantial without being frustrating.

    Overall, while it certainly captures a lot of its source material on spec, Wallace & Gromit's other strengths - Peter Sallis, Gromit shrugging or staring despondently into the camera, needless contraptions and simple directorial flourishes - are sorely missed in Fright of the Bumblebees.

    A brilliantly British and charming but cheesy title. There's room to improve, but there's still a grand old time to be had here.
