In terms of graphics and sound design, there was a surprising amount of effort put in to make a respectable game even if it weren’t just a movie clone. Sadly, the same usually goes for every title like this – so I won’t focus on it too much here. One of the best Pixar stories being entirely ignored isn’t a great choice, but its forgivable. Beyond the cutscenes at the beginning, there’s really nothing in terms of story, which is a bit of a letdown and by far the worst part of the game. The story is really nothing new if you saw the movie, you know the plot already. Obviously, he’s not human so those hopes are a bit harder to achieve, but the knowhow and gumption are both there. You play as Remy, everyone’s favorite silver screen rat chef, as he navigates the countryside of France and the streets of Paris attempting to follow his dream of becoming a respectable cook.
The premise of Ratatouille is barely similar to the film, but the settings and places that you’ll go are identical to the ones seen in the movie.
