The incredible inventor and his dapper dog are returning in a new series of episodic games from Telltale.

Following up on our original report last week of Wallace & Gromit's Grand Adventures, developers Telltale have now released new details on the new episodic collaboration with Aardman - but unfortunately we're still left without platform details.

The title will combine the rich and imaginative storytelling the quirky inventor and his faithful canine sidekick are known for with the critically-acclaimed writing, fun gameplay, and unique TV-style format Telltale has pioneered. Assuming the roles of both Wallace and Gromit, players will spend each episode exploring a vivid world, assembling intricate contraptions, and getting the duo out of the sticky situations they frequently find themselves in. The gameplay will largely revolve around problem-solving, puzzles and physical humour (since, unlike the talkative Sam & Max and the inhabitants of the Homestar Runner universe, most characters in Wallace & Gromit don't talk).

Says Telltale:

"Wallace & Gromit's Grand Adventures extends our vision for delivering new kinds of entertainment to everyone who enjoys a good story. Wallace & Gromit has a long history of entertaining people of all ages, and the world Aardman has created is rich with humour and storytelling possibilities. We look forward to reintroducing it to long-time fans in the episodic format that Telltale has been innovating."

If Feathers McGraw isn't featured, then we'll unleash the Kraken.

From the screenshot file names, we can deduce that PC Dibbins and Edwina are the names of two new in-game characters, and one of the scenarios will feature a large rabble of townsfolk in the dynamic duo's basement.

Cracking stuff, Gromit! We'll be keeping an eye on this one. For now, check out the title's teaser trailer below:
