Having an almost two-games-in-one element to it, The Last Resort weaves the best of both gaming genres (point & click adventure and mystery) together seamlessly, expanding the Wallace & Gromit world with even more characters involved in the gameplay for yet more fun folly from the wacky wannabe inventor and his devoted doggie.
While the replayability of Episode 2 is somewhat limited due to its single-solution design, the overall experience is simply too much fun to pass up. Any fan of adventure titles will find Wallace and Gromit: The Last Resort to be well worth the money.
Overall, The Last Resort is a good episode on its own, but weaker when compared to Fright of the Bumble Bees. Considering how you can only buy the game as a bundle on the PC, you have already paid for the experience. If you tried the demo of the first episode and still needed time to decide, I don’t believe this will change your mind.
In the end, The Last Resort feels less like a continuation of the series, and more like a time-waster: it's as if the developers wanted an episode to get a feel for the characters and style of the game, before diving back into the kind of game that Fright of the Bumblebees was.
Not as good as Fright of the Bumblebees, Last Resort is step back from the first game. The big problems of this second episode are a weak storyline, with poor jokes that don't make you laugh, and a few rooms and locations to explore.
If you haven't already bought the Wallace and Gromit episodes, don't start with this one -- if you have, then I'm sure you'll join me in looking forward to the next, hopefully more exciting chapter in the saga.
While still an enjoyable experience, The Last Resort fails to live up to its potential, and is more of an "Average Outing" than a Grand Adventure.
