    You cant even call it a puzzle game, except if sticking wooden shapes in matching holes is a puzzle for you. 2 points for the graphics.

    This game is such a letdown, I had been looking forward to the HD port and considering it had a 20 dollar pricetag, I assumed they'd add a level or two, maybe a sandbox at the end. But there's nothing. It's a beautiful experience and I enjoyed every second, but I beat the game in just over an hour, and that was it.

But there's nothing. It's a beautiful experience and I enjoyed every second, but I beat the game in just over an hour, and that was it. If it wasn't enough that it was painfully short and too expensive, the authors are having negative reviews deleted if they get to be the top review.

    It's clear that this was just apple throwing money at a company that crumpled under their **** fist. The only nice thing about this game being so damn short is that you can refund it after beating it.    … Expand

    The experience of a simple, charming Lego adventure in a miniature brick world is severely bogged down by the poor "simplified" controls. What's amazing is they clearly put work into the visual customization and settings for this PC version, but didn't change the awful touchscreen controls coming from the Apple Arcade version.

What's amazing is they clearly put work into the visual customization and settings for this PC version, but didn't change the awful touchscreen controls coming from the Apple Arcade version. Simply the ability to change the 'rotate' and 'place down' buttons would improve the experience exponentially. Until then, I can't recommend this game for more than $10.… Expand

    A modest but highly enjoyable and relaxing puzzle game. No references to popular franchises this time, no saving the world. You just use your building skills and brainpower to help a father and son on their atmospheric journey across 35 beautifully rendered levels that look especially striking on ray tracing-capable GPUs.

    Given the price this is sitting at… I don’t know if I can really recommend it. I really need to qualify that though because I think it is absolutely a worthwhile experience, it’s fantastic story telling with stunning visuals. But that about 2 hours I mentioned at the start… that wasn’t just to get a feel for the game… that was to complete the game, from start to finish… about 2 hours. So at this point I’d only really recommend buying the game if it’s on special or if they do in fact add more content (I really hope they do because I’d love to spend more time in this world).

    The contrast with previous Lego games or with the amusing but hyperkinetic Lego movie could hardly be greater. The neon and candy cane colors, sharp dialogues and flashy action have actually given way to ... serenity. Throughout the game there is no talking, there are no facial expressions and you are not taken by the hand. The soothing soundtrack supports the peaceful nature of the game, and it is wonderful to see how intentions and emotions can be conveyed even without dialogue.
