Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Preview
There’s a CGI Disney movie in town and that can mean only one thing: the imminent arrival of an official video game tie-in. The movie is based on the book A Day with Wilbur Robinson by William Joyce, which involves young orphan Lewis being whisked into the future to meet a rather odd family called… well you can probably guess. Unlike many other movie licenses both film and game have been worked on simultaneously, with the game expanding on the movie’s story rather than just retelling it.

Unlike many other movie licenses both film and game have been worked on simultaneously, with the game expanding on the movie’s story rather than just retelling it.
The game is being developed by Avalanche Softwre, who did the Tak series and Disney’s own Chicken Little, which was one of the better (or least worst) tie-ins of recent years. Since the movie is filled with time travel paradoxes the game aims to fill in the untold stories and shockingly isn’t a platform game – at least not primarily anyway. There is plenty of action though as you fight robots and use gadgets like the disassembler, the chargeball glove, scanner, havoc gloves and levitator.
Wilbur can upgrade both his gadgets and himself as he makes progress in the game, allowing you to choose whether you rely more on straight action or your wits. Further variety is added by some Super Monkey Ball style levels where you have to roll Wilbur around in a giant force field ball and some retro looking side-scrolling levels. It’s not a game likely to appeal to anyone that hasn’t seen the movie but with a bit of luck it won’t be a complete rip-off for those that have and just want relive the experience at home.

Manufacturer's Description
The dastardly Bowler Hat Guy and his robotic hat Doris are weaving through time, changing the past and warping the future. It's up to Wilbur Robinson to outmanoeuvre the diabolical duo in Walt Disney Pictures Presents Meet the Robinsons video games.
The game's levels represent entirely new worlds like Ancient Egypt and gadgets such as the Protectosphere, along with popular film sets such as the Science Fair. Players utilize Wilbur's gadgets in clever and entertaining ways to unravel puzzles and complete missions. In addition to discovering hidden upgrades and exploring fantastical locales, players interact with hysterical and distinct characters from the film as they adventure through stunning, interactive environments that expand the movie universe.
Each console version showcases the platform's unique capabilities. On the Xbox 360 players can post scores and view achievements on Xbox LIVE. With the Wii, players can enable features like aiming the Wii Remote to fire gadgets and using the Nunchuk's motion sensor to target objects.
The handheld versions of Meet The Robinsons feature unique gameplay and story experiences. On the Nintendo DS, players take advantage of the system's touch screen capabilities to aid Wilbur in his quest to retrieve Cornelius Robinson's stolen time-machine, and participate in single or wireless multiplayer touch-based matches of the Charge Ball mini-game. On the Game Boy Advance, players will venture from the present to the future in an effort to free the Robinson family from the clutches of Little Doris and her villainous minions.
