The objective is to navigate these whimsical yet perilous challenges and ultimately escape the factory in the Great Glass Elevator.
Story
Introduction
This is the story of an ordinary little boy named Charlie Bucket. He is not faster, or stronger, or more clever than other children. Indeed, Charlie is barely strong enough to stand in the wind. His family is not rich, or powerful, or well-connected. In fact, they barely have enough to eat.
Yet Charlie Bucket is the luckiest boy in the entire world. He just doesn't know it yet. Unseen for years, Willy Wonka, the world's greatest candy maker, has decided to invite five children into his fantastic chocolate factory.
Five Golden Tickets have been hidden beneath the wrappers of five ordinary Wonka bars. The lucky children who find them are to be taken on a personal tour of the factory by Mr. Wonka himself. The luckiest child of them all will receive an extra special prize, beyond anything you could ever imagine.
