    The episode's final chaotic moments are certainly clever and comical, but the drab, anticlimactic conclusion deflates the fun.

    This is the fourth and last chapter in the series, and it feels a bit claustrophobic mainly because Telltale recycles so many assets and locations from before. We understand that's the nature of the episodic beast, but it doesn't change the fact that it feels like we've seen much of this game before.

    The Bogey Man is a good ending to the series, although it is a little too slowly paced.

    A perfectly servicable, if unspectacular finale to Telltale's great Wallace and Gromit series. A new puzzle structure, improved writing, and more challenging brain-twisters make this episode feel entirely fresh. The series may not end with a bang, but The Bogey Man sure as heck isn't a whimper.

    In the end, there isn’t a whole lot wrong with The Bogey Man, but there isn’t anything particularly memorable either. That would be fine if this were the middle of the series, but as a conclusion, it’s a little disappointing.

    While it's not a bad episode by any means it definitely doesn't feel like the ending Wallace & Gromit's Grand Adventures needed to end a success. A grand adventure this was not.

    Telltale did it again and it could be defined the new LucasArts, considering how the studio works on its licenses. Lovely stuf and cheap price (8.95€ for the single episode).

    The finale of Telltale's episodic Wallace and Gromit content is a mixed bag, with some elements seeing an improvement and others taking a step backwards.

    A charming, if not particularly exciting finale to a great little series. [Issue#24, p.56]

    This wet weekend in Wigan doesn't even come close. [Oct 2009, p.84]
