    This is the best Lego game so far but it, for me, still doesn't have that cutting edge. There is no doubt that the CO OP is great fun and collecting the super heros gives the game more depth then previous lego games.

    I'd like to see a wider multiplayer experience with 4 players and maybe a mini game mode.

    Overall one to pick up after the price cut to around £20-25.    … Expand

    This being the first modern day Lego game I've played, I have to say I'm really interested in this franchise.

But when you do beat the game and unlock free mode, it is unfortunately underwhelming. Characters you think could do certain things like crawling on walls are non existent. Heck, they even do this with Spider-Man, all he can do is stick to walls, not crawl them in free roam.

    What Kind of Adventure?

    Action-Adventure Was it fun? I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. The Lego games are well made and enjoyable. Its fun to sit back and bounce around play the stories and unlock characters. Are there any similar games? Pick any Lego game and its comparable. Favorite Character? Thats a tough question because I like Spiderman and Storm    What Kind of Adventure?

    Action-Adventure

    Was it fun?

    I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. The Lego games are well made and enjoyable. Its fun to sit back and bounce around play the stories and unlock characters.

    Are there any similar games?

    Pick any Lego game and its comparable.

    Favorite Character?

    Thats a tough question because I like Spiderman and Storm equally. They both had projectiles that worked very well and took out enemies not to mention they were both very useful characters. Spiderman with his web-slinging and Storm, she would throw out a gust of air that would exterminate flames and take out enemies.

    Would you play it again?

    Yes, I might go back and try to unlock more things.

    Any Complaints?

    Sometimes the prompts don’t show up on the screen when you’re playing so I would be in a situation and I try everything but nothing would work. I would then look it up online and what the person online did, is something that I tried and it didn’t work. Those kind of things do irritate me some, it’s just one of those things where if I do something, I would like it to work.    … Expand

    This was my first LEGO game - I was not particularly impressed as the puzzles, once figured out or experienced once or twice, simply repeated themselves throughout.

    With no real penalty for failure, or dying, game play was fairly boring and risk-free. This might be ok if the story was engaging but unfortunately it was not (at least for a discerning adult).

    I mostly felt I was going through the motions to move the story along with no real sense of excitement, etc. Note that I am not a comic or superhero fan-boy, the simple fact I am playing as Hulk, or Spiderman does not make an otherwise boring game more interesting to me.

    Conclusion: Pass unless you are really into superheros or comics and simply playing as these characters excites you.    … Expand

    Just got platinum on this and it's as advertised a fun Lego filled to the brim with content. You know what you buy and while no big changes have been made to the formula, the game remains fun and fresh. Perfect inbetweener.

    The only 'point of criticism' I can give personally is that some of the cooler characters are give too late in the game, when I've pretty much finished the game.

    It's fun for a while, but in the end it is just a regular old lego game. The thing that got me disappointed was despite having over 50 different superheroes, there were only about 6 "power sets" or out of the 50 characters there were only 6 different powers distributed. Overall it was an okay game, but still ended up being a little disappointing.

Perhaps it's the number of characters you can control that has me flummoxed but I've found it very difficult to figure out who to use and what to do so much so I've found myself cheating online just to get past the beginning levels. My score could change. To higher if I finally conquer the learning curve to worse if that never happens and the game becomes repetitive.… Expand

    Seems to be one of the best rated Lego games next Batman 2. The flying is so awful the driving is pretty bad. Camera angles for the platform sections can be really jank at times.

Just some more superhero nonsense. They didn’t skip on the roster of unlockable characters. Which is a veritable mini-horde to choose from. Most are boring copy/paste types in the powers and moves department. Thankfully character switch in co-op is seamless in free roam unlike Batman 2 Lego. Main impressions this a overtly cute game that is poorly executed janky experience. Which I only endure with the little kids for the bonding experience. They love it to death, oh well.… Expand

    Kids will find no shortage of fun in this game, as they probably love all Lego Games. And as far as Lego games go it definitely is one of the better ones. But it still leaves a lot to be desired, as a concept like this, if properly explored and envisioned, could be an incredible game.

    Красиво, разнообразно, богато, но сюжет и серьёзность уже слишком сильно хромает, чтобы дать игре больше.

    Como todos los videojuegos de LEGO, tiene secciones divertidas y otras que son típicas no tanto, típicas del propio género personal que ha creado la franquicia.

    Although the combat is basic, the character selection is great. Another good Lego game.

    LEGO Marvel Super Heroes represents Traveler’s Tales finest work with the LEGO property. All of the requisite hooks are there: a fun story, good humor, solid gameplay and healthy challenges. The studio’s reverence for the source material really pays off in the end, with content and character options that should be more than enough for any type of Marvel fan.

    You only need a shallow appreciation for the Marvel super heroes culture to enjoy the newest Lego game. It has a lot of playable characters and the variation between exploration and standard levels is great. That makes it hard not to take the sometimes antiquated design for granted.
