Space Chimps is a platform video game based on the film of the same name. It was published by Brash Entertainment and was released for the PlayStation 2, Wii, Nintendo DS, Xbox 360 (not compatible with Xbox One), and Microsoft Windows in 2008.[3]

Plot

Similar to the film, Ham III, grandson of Ham, the first chimpanzee in space, teams up with fellow spacemates Luna and Titan on a space adventure to an unknown planet.

Gameplay

The player plays two characters, Ham and Luna, defeating enemies in order to defeat Zartog and save their friend, collecting gumdrop-shaped objects called Globhoppers as well as bananas along the way.

Collecting enough Globhoppers and bananas unlocks rewards such as character concepts, artwork, and videos as well as a deleted scene from the movie in which the director of the film, Kirk DeMicco, plays with actual monkeys.[4]

Reception

The game received “mixed or average reviews” on all platforms except the PlayStation 2 version, which received “generally unfavorable reviews” according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.[5][6][7][8][9]
