Introduction ********************************************************************** I am MysticWeirdo also known by my real name Warren Grieder. I've previously written a Card, Item, and Combo Collection Guide for Lost Kingdoms 2 on the Gamecube which was coauthored by zeldafannow. This will be my first walkthrough. In Wallace and Gromit Project Zoo you take on the roll on Gromit, Wallace's faithful dog. This game is a sequel to "The Wrong Trousers" from the Wallace and Gromit series with our two heroes once again facing the diabolical Arch penguin, Feathers McGraw. Feathers has kidnapped their adopted polar bear cub Archie and is forcing the adult animals to do his bidding by holding their babies captive. I played this game on the XBox, but this guide should be applicable for the Gamecube, PS2, and PC versions as well. ********************************************************************** 2.

Starting the game ********************************************************************** From the title screen you go the game select menu which lets you choose a save slot to use. If no game is in progress on a save you you'll can choose from EXTRAS, OPTIONS, or NEW GAME. EXTRAS lets you watch any videos you've unlocked. OPTIONS lets you set the volume, turn subtitle on or off, and turn the rumble feature on or off. NEW GAME starts a new game. If a game is in progress on the slot, you can choose from EXTRAS, OPTIONS, PLAY, COPY, and ERASE. PLAY continues a previous save game. You can either start from where you left off, or replay a world or boss you've already beaten. Note: When you save while replaying a world you'll update the tools and coins found data but you no longer save you're position in the world, you have to start at the beginning each time. COPY copies the save game to another slot. ERASE deletes the save game. ********************************************************************** 4.

Movie 14: Closing cutscene, unlocked after fishing the game. ********************************************************************** 5. Clarification of Move Names. ********************************************************************** The manual lists all to the moves in the game and I see little point in duplicating the list here. Even if I did the controls will be specific to X-Box and I want this guide to be general for all versions of the game. That being said I want to clarify two of the naming conventions I used in the guide that differ from the manual. I refer to a backflip move at several points in this guide. The manual lists this as "Moving jump-flip-somersault" where you start in one direction, reverse and jump. This is one of the few moves that the in game information points don't tell you about. I also refer to jumping and stomping which the manual refers to as the "jump-smash" where you jump and attack. ********************************************************************** 6. Weapons/Inventory Items List ********************************************************************** Note on aiming weapons: The Banana Gun, Porridge Gun, and Turnip Launcher can all be aimed either automatically or manually. Some targets/enemies Gromit will autoaim at if you're facing the right direction and standing in the right spot. Not all targets can be auto-aimed at. To manually aim: 1. Get out the weapon 2. Use the first person look around mode. 3. Line the red dot up with that target. You may need to account for gravity, with the porridge gun you can adjust it as it autofires. 4. Fire the weapon. Banana Gun: (left in weapon select) ----------- The banana gun, which is acquired at the beginning of the game, is useful for shooting bananas at target or monkeys. It is not very useful in combat. Torch: (down in weapon select) ------ The torch which is acquired in the third section of world 1, is used to set stuff on fire after being lit at a flame source. Porridge Gun: (up in weapon select) ------------ The porridge gun, acquired in the second section of world two, isuseful for gumming up gears or getting them to spin, it takes several porridge ammo to gum up or spin gears. It can also be used to shoot targets. It can be used in combat to shoot down flying penguins and missiles. Fire Extinguish: (right in weapon select) --------------- The fire extinguisher is acquired at the beginning of world 3. It's used to extinguish flames that may be blocking Gromit's path. It has no combat applications, not even against the flamethrowing penguins. Turnip Launcher: (up and left in weapon select) --------------- This is the most powerful weapon in the game and is aqcuired in the first area of world 4. It can be used to destroy crates and barrels, as well as shoot at targets. Very effective when used against launchers and flamethrowing penguins. Remote Control: (down and left in weapon select) -------------- The remote control is acquired during the boss battle in world 5. It opens 2 doors in world 6, and well as a door in world 1 and moving platforms in world 5. Replay worlds 1 and 5 after you get the remote to find the last 3 coins. ********************************************************************** 7. Enemies List ********************************************************************** Clockwork Penguins: ------------------ I may refer to these as ordinary penguins. They can be dealt with fairly easily using hand-to-hand combat, and jumping and stomping on them. They are also vulnerable to the turnip launcher, although if there are a large number of them at close range its not a practical weapon. Some of them are vulnerable to the porridge gun, i.e. the ones that attack while you wait for the gate to open near the beginning of world 3, but most won't even be slowed down by it. Flying penguins: --------------- These look like the ordinary clockwork penguins except for the propeller on their heads. They can easily be shot down with the porridge gun. Flamethrowing penguins: ---------------------- These overweight mechanical fowl shoot flames at you if you get to close. Until you get the turnip launcher, you need to either jump over them and stomp them or wait until their flame stops briefly before closing with them. A single shot from the turnip laucher will destroy them. Monkeys: ------- The monkeys in the second section of world 1 are minor annoyance and easily avoided. The banana gun can be used to distract them. Spikeballs: ---------- The spikeballs or "Horrid Hedgehogs" come in two size small and giant. Both are vulnerable to attacks on the red spot on their backs. Wait until they roll towards you, jump over them and start attacking. Caterpillars: ------------ The caterpillars shoot at you if you give them a chance. Flip them on their backs by jumping and stomping them to reveal their vulnerable underside. Another jump and stomp finishes them off. Launchers: --------- The launchers shoot coconuts at you if you get to close. Destroy them with one shot for the turnip launcher. They can be gummed up briefly with the porridge gun. Zookeepers: ---------- The two zookeepers in the Warehouse are actually Feather's mechanical minions. After acquiring the turnip gun go back and get some payback for all the times you got caught sneaking through the maze. Ice house side area robot: ------------------------- This unique enemy is easily destroy by a few punches. The larger starting form is broken into two medium sized robots when hit. The medium sized robot are broken into two small robot when hit. Hitting the small robot destroys them. Penguin missile: --------------- The homing penguin missile can be either jumped over, dodged, lured into an obstacle, or shot down with the porridge gun. ********************************************************************** 8. Walkthrough ********************************************************************** There are six worlds and 5 bosses in the game. In each world you need to rescue 3 baby animals: World 1: Elephants World 2: Beavers World 3: Gorillas World 4: Pandas World 5: Polar Bears World 6: Zebras Throughout the worlds there are nuts and bolts scattered that you need to collect for Wallace to fix various switches and create weapons for you. The bolts are equal to 5 nuts. There are a lot more than you need so their locations will not be listed. You will need to make some detours to pick up the tools listed in the tool section you first time through. These detours are included in the walkthrough in square brackets, e.g. [TOOL: Description of necessary detour.] 8.1 World 1: Jungle House ----------------------- 8.1.1 Area 1 ------------ HINT: Build the Banana Gun. --------------------------- After the initial cutscenes, you'll be at the entrance to the Jungle House.

[TOOL: Pick up near the right switch in front of the temple.] Swim to the left (when facing the temple) end of the river to get back the other side. Head over to the switch by the drawbridge which Wallace will fix if you've acquired four tools. Note: If you fix the drawbridge before you rescue the baby you get to see an extra cutscene. HINT: Enter the temple. ---------------------- Cross the drawbridge and stand on one of the floor switches. Call Wallace to stand on the other one to open the temple. 8.1.3 Area 3 ------------ HINT: Destroy the clockwork penguins. ------------------------------------ [TOOL: Jump up to the rafters of the entrance room.] From the entrance room, activate the door with the penguin picture to open it.

First you need to defeat all of the penguins either by hand to hand attacks or by stomping on them from a jump. Once they're defeated the mining machine will start charging you. When it hits the wall its top flies open leaving it vulnerable to a double jump and stomp, or you can simply let it repeatedly hit the wall slowly damaging itself. Once its sustained enough damage, a second wave of penguins will attack. Take them out as before while avoiding the missiles the mining machine is shooting at you. The missile will also take out any penguins that get in the way. Once the penguins are taken care of the mining machine will start charging again, either stomp it or let it damage itself on the wall to bring on the final wave of penguins. This time there are flamethrowing penguins that need to be stomped from above or have missiles lure into them. After dealing with the final wave, stomp the mining machine or allow it to damage itself to finish it off so you can go to the second world. 8.2 World 2: Coal Mine ----------------------- 8.2.1 Area 1 ------------ HINT: Enable power to the turntables. ------------------------------------ Wallace does this for you in the first cutscene.

[TOOL: Go across the bridge from the exit and head left a little bit.] 8.2.2 Area 2 ------------ The hints do not need to be take care of in the order they appear on the status screen, in fact the first time through its impossible to fix the generator to open the blast doors before the building the porridge gun so I've moved it to the point where it is necessary. A glitch in the game make it possible to finish the level without rescuing the third baby, but if you do that you'd be no better than Feathers. HINT: Fix the ground floor generator to start the lift. ------------------------------------------------------- [TOOL: Jump up into an alcove to the right of the entrance. ] [TOOL: Head right from the entrance across 2 trapdoors and ride a moving platform to the central machine.

Go along the walkway to the red switch and activate it, which lowers the walkway to the green switch. Repeat for the green switch to lower a walkway to blue switch. Repeat again with the blue switch and the top part of the machine will stall and a ladder will fall. Climb the ladder and slide down the rope. Push the block to the far end of the slot its in and flip the switch underneath to release the cage. Open the cage to free the baby. [TOOL: Pick up by the third baby's acid vat.] You can rope slide from here to the central machine and jump down to the starting area.

Follow the track through a tunnel to a closed gate and head left to exit. Wallace will use 9 tools to fix the Gyrocopter and start the boss sequence. 8.2.3 Boss 2: Gyrocopter chase ------------------------------ This is more an obstacle course that a boss. Navigate the the gyrocopter through a narrow passage trying to avoid the walls. The attack button will fire porridge and any enemies that might be in your way. Try to pick up turbo on the way, the jump button fire the turbo for a burst of speed. You'll need to use the turbo at the end to get through the blast doors just after some jets of fire before they close. This can be frustrating but you should get through after a few attempts. 8.3 World 3: Volcano -------------------- 8.3.1 Area 1 ------------ HINT: Rescue the Gorilla baby over volcanic pit. ----------------------------------------------- This level starts in a trash compactor with a 30 second count down timer. Jump up on some boxes and on to a ledge. Flip the switch to stop the compactor. You'll get the fourth weapon, the fire extinguisher during the cutscene. After the cutscene Gromit is standing on a rock in a lava pool. Jump along the rocks using the extinguisher on the flames. Gum up the machine with the porridge gun and extinguish the flames that shoot up from the fallen pipe. Jump on to the machine and down to the rocks past it. Destroy the penguin and jump up to rocks on to a small platform. When you're on the small platform you can perform a backflip (start moving in one direction, reverse and jump) to get on the platform on top of the pole. This platform will sink and the platform under the opening in the outside wall will rise. Once that platform has stopped rising drop down onto it, and quickly perform another backflip to get through the opening. [TOOL: Go down into pit in this room.] Defeat the flamethrowing penguin and swing across the gap on the rope. Stand on the floor switch and fend off the penguin with the porridge gun while the gate rises. Go through the gate and slide down the rope. Extinguish the flame. Jump across the rocks. Note the launcher to the right, only a turnip gun can destroy it which you don't have at this point, so try to avoid its projectiles, jumping up when on the tallest rocks is almost certain to get you hit. [TOOL: Step on the blocks in the lava that cause other block to rise and fall until you can jump to the back block in the lava.] Run up to the flaming bridge and extinguish the fire. Defeat the penguins (one flamethrower and two ordinary) on the other side. Jump across the gap and destroy the lone penguin. Go left across the bridge, jumping over the gap. [TOOL: Pick up at the end of the bridge with a gap.] Turn right and avoid the rocks, until you reach an open flame. Light your torch and head back to the bridge and cross it. Turn left and head for the fuse being careful not to let the torch be get extinguished by the bursts of steam. Extinguish the fire you just started on the next bridge. Go left from the bridge past the barrels and the gorilla and turn to the center. Destroy the penguins and extinguish the flame and get past it before it relights. Stand on the floor switch and shoot the target above the cage to move it to safety. [TOOL: Jump on the platform at the volcano mouth and retrieve from ledge.] Follow Wallace and he'll fix a 50 nut switch to lower a ladder. Climb down and open the cage. Go back up the ladder and go to the next area through the now open elevator. 8.3.2 Area 2 ------------ HINT: Destroy the giant spike ball. ---------------------------------- Go forward from the entrance and destroy the giant spikeball by jumping over it when it rolls towards you and hitting it a few time on the red spot on its back. Backflip on the green box and jump on to the catwalk. Swing across the gap on the rope. Extinguish the flames as you go by. [TOOL: On the ledge above the flames. Backflip on the trapdoor and jump on to the ledge to get there.] Pull the switch to lower the lift for Wallace to get on and again to raise it. Have Wallace fix the 25 nut switch to get to the third area. 8.3.3 Area 3 ------------ HINT: Get Wallace across the lava river. ---------------------------------------- [TOOL: Go left at the beginning of the bridge at the level entrance.] Go across the bridge and have Wallace fix the 50 nut machine. Shoot the targets that have appeared on the machine in this order: right, left, and middle. You need to manually aim at the targets, autoaim doesn't work here. Stand by the lava river near the bridge and enter look around mode with the weapon drawn and shoot at the targets. The autofire on the porridge gun is useful here as it lets you correct your aim. Jump across the rocks that are floating down the lava river if you didn't take too long to shoot one of the targets.[TOOL: Swing on the rope from the top of the 3 target machine.] Gopast the machine down the hall, and destroy the spikeball and thepenguin. Break the boxes and go through the ripped fence. Go down the hall on the other side of the fence room and open the door for Wallace. Have him fix the 25 nut gate.
