    This game is great. There is often a misconception that this game is Minecraft; it is not. Stop saying it is. There are three parts of Minecraft: Digging, building and crafting. People often say exploration is a key part of Minecraft; it is not. You can literally spawn, walk 5 blocks to a tree, start punching it and you're done for the rest of the game.

There are three parts of Minecraft: Digging, building and crafting. People often say exploration is a key part of Minecraft; it is not. You can literally spawn, walk 5 blocks to a tree, start punching it and you're done for the rest of the game. I do like Minecraft, but there are many differences in this game. This game offers proper exploration. You start in the woods, find a horse, and you travel to a land full of candy canes and cupcakes and find a gun and a plane! The exploration is literally endless.

    The building. The building in this game is often the point of the negative/positive ratings. Contrary to popular thought, building is actually not that difficult. The brick by brick build is actually far more simple than most people think. If you actually read how to do it, you'd know that you can drag a brick using left shift and I made myself a fully operational castle with individual rooms in under an hour. Try doing that in Minecraft survival.

    Another thing is the pre-fabs. They are amazing. I have made my own town with roads (using the steam roller) and houses, and barns, and even a McDonald's down the road. The creation in this game, like the exploration, is pretty much endless.

    The building is far easier than most people think and the exploration is amazing and endless. I have nothing major to fault on this game, especially since it is in early access. The one, tiny, tiny fault is the third person view. Aiming is very hard with guns and bow and arrows and I think it would be a wonderful addition to add a first person view that is optional.

    TL;DR: The exploration in this game is incredibly fun and endless, the building takes a bit of skill but once read up on is easy, and the endless creation is amazing, but this is NOT Minecraft. Third person view can be buggy but otherwise this is an amazing game. I recommend to anyone who likes LEGO and who is very creative.    … Expand

    This game is great, and is only getting better with each update. As it's an early access title, I'll be reviewing it as an incomplete game. So, the final game may have a different score requiring a review edit.

So, the final game may have a different score requiring a review edit.

    Before we get into the review, I want to talk about the game's early access status and their Youtube policy.
    Yes, it's an early access title. As such, there's always the possibility that the game will never be finished. However, the devs have maintained constant communication, offered frequent feature updates, and have already shipped a number of LEGO games (TT Games) for Warner Bros. They're a pretty good studio with a huge publisher backing them. I'll never say never, but it's pretty unlikely that the project will be shelved this far into development given its feedback on Steam.

    Second, I know a lot of us like to stream on Twitch or upload videos to Youtube. The devs have explicitly stated on the Steam Community forums that they are fine with this, so you shouldn't have to worry about copyright strikes. Now, let's get to the good stuff!

    First, let's address performance. I have a decidedly mid-range computer (FX-8120, GeForce 760). Under DirectX 11, the game runs adequately, and MUCH better than it did when it first became available on Steam's Early Access. The performance gets a little better with each update, so I'd be surprised if it wasn't completely optimized by release.

    Second, let's take a look at the gameplay. Some people are of the opinion that this is a Minecraft clone. I disagree. It is definitely the same genre as Minecraft (sandbox creation), but the ability to build things in procedural worlds is about the only similarity on that front. In fact, this game's creation tools are much more versatile, with the notable exception of not having a circuit system (like redstone) as of the last time I played. LEGO Worlds rewards discovery by allowing players to become characters they have met or recall vehicles and animals they have discovered. The kits are a nice touch as well, allowing you to instantly create entire sets that you have found in-game. While you can still manually create anything you could with real LEGO bricks, you have additional options here. On a somewhat different gameplay note, LEGO Worlds also added a quest system a couple updates back for those who want a break from the sandbox and would like a bit more "traditional" gameplay goals. They're by no means required, but they are nice for those of you who like game-set goals once in a while.

    Next, let's talk about graphics and art direction. The art direction and graphics are familiar to anyone who has played any of the recent LEGO games. This is probably due to the fact that the same studio is behind this one. If you like that art style, you'll like this one. If you don't, you won't. If you couldn't care less about graphics and simply want to create your LEGO empire of doom, they're more than adequate. Personally, I like the art style, but that's just my preference.

    If the ability to create anything you want with an infinite set of LEGO bricks sounds like something you'd like, then this game is definitely worth checking out. If the lack of a redstone equivalent is a dealbreaker, wait a little longer to see what gets implemented.

    Now, let's talk about the features that AREN'T in the game yet:
    -Online multiplayer: the devs have continously said that this will arrive later on. That being said, I am of the personal opinion that this will be implemented MUCH closer to release.
    -Underground cave networks: The devs say that they will also be procedurally generated.
    -Towns, villages, settlements.
    -Underwater gameplay (vehicles and creatures)
    -Other things that aren't that important to me but you can check out on their Steam listing.    … Expand

    For a game that has been on steam for only a little bit, I can only pick out a few negatives showing a glimmering shine of potential for the future.

    Now, this may not be as good as most other games in Lego's collection at THIS MOMENT IN TIME, but I promise you, in 4-12 months, it will be the Lego game everyone remembers for a long time. You can build anything you want. Think back to your childhood in this game.

The game has some short quests which serve as tutorials. These quests introduce you to the different mechanics LEGO Worlds has to offer. After that, you're (almost) free to go wherever you like. By finding or unlocking gold bricks you are able to unlock bigger worlds. All the worlds are randomly generated. This brings with it some issues which can happen, like trees clipping through the ground. However, this issue is contained to only a few moments.

    The focus in this LEGO game is on creativity and exploration. You can use the tools you're offered to build anything you want. Unfortunately you start off with very few bricks, and you have to catch so called Troublemakers (little green creatures) that carry new types of bricks.

    This process is tedious if you just want to build stuff. So here are some cons::
    - No creative mode, where all the bricks are unlocked
    - The random generation can very rarely cause clipping
    - You're not able to go to the biggest world immediately
    - It still has some bugs that need to be worked out

    Pros:
    - There's a lot of bricks to discover (probably just about every real life LEGO brick that exists)
    - The different tools are intuitive and easy to use
    - It has good performance on PC
    - It's the only LEGO game which allows for so much exploring and discovering
    - The building mechanics are very good
    - The randomly generated worlds (while sometimes buggy) are nice to look at
    - There's plenty of quests on pretty much every planet
    - The progression through the game is well implemented
    - The game doesn't get boring

    In a period of 3 days I have recieved 3 or 4 updates. The developers are active and the community is thriving. I'm 100% confident that this game with only get better and better. Therefore it's a temporary 10/10.    … Expand

    A game that uses Lego's excellent creation a lot. You navigate different Worlds by exploring them, doing the given missions and building. After a while, it takes a very long time to come out of the world, but apart from that, it is one of the best in Lego games.

    The game that was able to cross The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Minecraft, Lego. It felt very easy to play, I enjoyed playing it for a very long time and I still sometimes go to play. There are a lot of Lego characters and many characters from Lego universes. I'm waiting for Lego Worlds 2 or at least updates like in Minecraft!

    Whereas Minecraft is simple enough to be understood by a kid, LEGO Worlds drowns you in a plethora of almost useless features. Even something as mundane as building and painting is clumsy and eats a lot of your time.

    Overall, it may be a pain to have to collect each type of brick that you want to use, but you’ll learn things. I do like this game, and I’m not big on open sandboxes. Or, perhaps I like it because of that.

    There are some problems with the procedural world generation. And the UI lacks a sorting function for objects, while the free building is a little awkward. But nonetheless this is a huge creative sandbox somewhere between No Man’s Sky and Minecraft.
