Based on the computer-animated movie from 20th Century Fox, Space Chimps has players guiding simian star Ham III on a mission to rescue a costly NASA space probe lost inside a wormhole. What starts off a simple retrieval exercise turns into something more, however. Ham III and his crewmates, Lt. Luna and Titan, inadvertently find themselves trying to save an alien planet under siege from a dastardly dictator named Zartog.
