| '''Over the Hedge''' is a video game based upon the 2006 film of the same name.
| | ==Story== |
| | Set a year after the events of the movie, the game follows RJ, Hammy, Verne, and their gang as they embark on a series of heists. Their motivation is to gather more supplies for their log. These daring adventures lead them to various locations, including human households and even into Vincent's den. Along the way, players can indulge in several engaging minigames. |

|
| In the video game, which takes place a year after the movie, RJ, Hammy, Verne, and the gang feel that they need to have more things for the log (the area behind the hedge). This leads them on a wild romp through six different areas to snatch different things such as a popcorn machine and a TV for themselves. There are several mini games as bonuses in the game.
| | Throughout their journey, the group faces the persistent threat of the Sniffer, also known as Dwayne the Verminator. He aims to thwart their plans by employing a brigade of mind-controlled animals, effectively turning them into his personal henchmen. This even includes formidable creatures like weasels, badgers, and Vincent himself. |
| | |
| All through the game, they try to take these things while avoiding the Sniffer, (Dwayne the Verminator), who tries to defeat them by using mind-controlled vermin he has captured as his "henchmen." At one point, many animals, including weasels, badgers, and even Vincent the bear are controlled.

| ==Gameplay==
| |
| ''Over the Hedge'' features 3D platform gameplay as well as mini games. Players navigate a series of homes searching for luxury items, controlling RJ; Verne; Hammy or Stella. Character voices are provided by soundalikes rather than the original actors who recorded the voices for the film.

| Two different kinds of attack can be employed, melee and ranged. Weapons include golf clubs, sticks, baseball bats, plungers and other everyday items. Ranged attacks consist of throwing boomerangs, frisbees and shooting golf balls, these attacks can be charged up. There are also energy attacks, projectile weapons and objects to pick up and throw at enemies. The game has several pickup weapons, such as weapons that only opponents have (i.e., a trowel). There are also guns that start out from a toy ball launcher, then a freeze ray and a lava blaster.

| | |
| Players can jump or double jump. The game allows a second player to press a button on the second controller and join the game at any time, as well as pause the game and drop out. There are also plenty of obstacles and hazards to overcome, as well as objectives to complete and extras to collect. The game also has an array of hats, which when collected make a humorous sound and act as armor. These include a chef hat, a crown, a witch hat and a hockey helmet amongst others.

| | |
| Several locations from the movie (and some that are not) appear to give a greater playing ground than the suburbs, the home base being the woods where all the loot is stored. Players can switch around between the four characters to give the storyline some slight twist, as each character says something different when a situation arises, to slightly alter the story.
