    This game definitely exceeded my expectations. The story is well executed, the art and graphics are a joy to look at and there's an incredible amount of content, so many things to do and collect. It's funny where it needs to be and not overly dramatic in just the right places, a perfect balance of tone. Plus it just feels like the team that created this had the joy consistently flowing.This game definitely exceeded my expectations.

    This game is great fun, and there is lots to do. My nephew loves playing it in co-op. It would get a 10 but they somehow failed to include the option to invert the Y axis!

The fights can be a bit messy but given the low level of difficulty in the game it won't be a problem at all.

    The story is not base on any particular movie or comic and yet it's very good with the Lego humour you'd be expecting and a great mix of all Marvel most popular licenses, the story itself will last approximately 10 hours but with a nice open-world full of collectibles and some bonus levels the game will last around 25 hours (if you're not the kind of gamer that is interested by collectibles I wouldn't advice any Lego game).

    As always another of the main argument to buy the game is its local co-op mode that will provide great fun playing with your friend/child in a game that mixes puzzles, platforming and fighting elements.

    All in all Lego Marvel Super Heroes is a fine Lego game, that makes the Marvel universe shine, always very fun to play even if it lacks a bit of challenge for hardcore players, very advisable for young players and aficionados from either Lego or Marvel franchise.    … Expand

    I really enjoyed this game! The open world, enjoyable gameplay, fun co-op, and unlockables are all positives towards the game. Plus, the relatively smart writing, ridiculous array of characters, and more of an action approach with this installment in the LEGO game franchise really made it one of the better ones.

    I played this with my 5 year old. She absolutely loved it! I've played about 8 other lego games before, and this is the best one yet. The open world is amazing, and so many characters. Even after getting the platinum trophy, my little one still wants me to open it up so she can drive around the city.

A change of pace from other LEGO titles, LEGO Marvel Super Heroes is set in the Manhattan district of New York, with one of the best open worlds I've ever seen.
    TT Games did a fantastic job creating an open-world environment, with real-life locations such as Central Park and the Statue of Liberty transitioned into the colourful LEGO world, as well as iconic locations from the comics such as Stark Tower, the X-Mansion and the SHIELD Helicarrier all being available to visit. The city is also full of NPCs' with general dialogue, and most importantly vehicles, with the player being able to drive cars, cruise on speedboats and fly in helicopters and airplanes.
    But enough about the expansive open-world, the levels TT Games have implemented into the games are carefully crafted and a lot of care and creativity has clearly gone into them. The levels take you to iconic locations such as The Raft prison and Dr. Doom's castle. There are also a range of bonus missions, set in locations such as banks and gyms, which unlock certain characters for purchase when completed. In fact, LEGO Marvel Super Heroes has a myriad of characters from the Marvel universe, often classified into two categories: regular characters, which can perform normal tasks such as drive vehicles, and heavy characters, which can't fit through most doors, spawn in small gaps or drive vehicles, but can perform brute tasks like lifting heavy objects and tearing down buildings.
    It will take several hours to unlock every character in the game - some are unlocked via story or can be found on the streets, whereas some other characters require you to perform often difficult tasks or races, and even then cost a fortune *cough cough, Silver Surfer*, and one character in particular, Deadpool, requires to spend millions of studs - which are in-game currency - to unlock all red bricks - basically perks which enhance various aspects of your game - and even then complete a series of difficult missions. But it's all worth it in the end just to see a completed grid of characters.
    The game also has a couple of DLC packs, adding more characters to the mix: these include a DLC pack centred around characters from the Thor universe and a pack of obscure Marvel characters you've probably never heard of - for example, A-Bomb.
    Overall, the game is a fantastic play and definitely one of the best out there. The best thing is, it's not even that expensive! I couldn't find anything to criticise in this game, and I'm sure I've already gone into enough detail about what I like about it! I give it a 10/10 and definitely encourage you to buy a copy and try for yourself, and I can't wait until I can get the 'sequel' LEGO Marvel's Avengers, which looks like an even greater version of an already magnificent game.    … Expand

Furthermore, the game has great visuals making it a whole lot more fun to play, the detailed scenery does a good job of standing out, especially for a Lego game. It has introduced a open world city such as New York. Buying the game i wasn't expecting it to work as well as it does they is endless things to do and even roaming New York City can keep you busy most the time. Like most other Lego games they is tones of collectibles, such as Stan Lee. However, the puzzles don't do a great deal in this game and have proven to be quiet unsuccessful. The game itself can have a few glitches but it doesn't tend to get in the way of gameplay. The AI can have strange actions during certain plays like free roaming, open world gameplay, etc...

    - amazing and huge character choice
    - a fun engaging story
    - brilliant visuals for a Lego game

    - variety of collectibles

    LEGO Marvel Super Heroes is a for real open world superhero game for game for kids. If you ever wanted to share the grandeur of a game like GTA or Infamous with a kid, this game is it. The open world LEGO New York is gigantic and full of its own secrets and mini-missions. On the PS4, draw distances are huge, though the game also fakes a bit of realism with textures.

On the PS4, draw distances are huge, though the game also fakes a bit of realism with textures. My son's main complaint is that the buildings are not made entirely out of LEGOs. I agree, a LEGO world should be bricks from top to bottom.

    The game has a bevy of glitches that require a restart. Most of the glitches are of the variety that the game runs fine, but whatever object or action you need to continue has been lost from the level. This is not something my kids understand and certainly not something you expect from a console game. Parental guidance is advised (as in you need to guide the kids to restart the game ever other play session).

    The scope of the game is huge. The number of heroes, voices, and actions are at the level of any triple-A title. Iron Man alone receives a half dozen suits including the notorious Hulk-buster armor. Even non-Marvel characters are playable like the Statue of Liberty herself. While some of the aesthetics follow "Avengers" movie, the story seems straight out of the "Superhero Squad" cartoon show. This is good for my kids, as they are way to young to see PG-13 but very much enjoy the kids cartoon. My daughter's main complaint is the scarcity of female superheroes, and again I agree. Games are for everyone.

    The gameplay itself is fun and kid friendly. Villains are defeated by solving puzzles and using team work. Villains are not defeated by precise control movements and twitchy reaction times. The LEGO characters are sometimes disassembled by walking in front of a laser beam or falling from a building, but they instantly pop back into existence. My kids were surprisingly free of frustration and that is what a fun game is all about.    … Expand

The game is extremely fun and has the general ring of a LEGO game and keeps with the building brick theme very well. A main point that I felt was done well in this game was the levels. Each one is creative and you really do have to use your surroundings to figure out the problems. Whilst the game is marketed largely towards kids, it provides a good time for all ages, but the puzzles may seem a little lacklustre, but that is usually the case with LEGO Games, and they are honestly okay.

    My main gripe with LEGO Marvel is that sometimes it isn't very clear where everything is or how you should go about completing something that should be fairly straightforward. An example of this is the Rykers Island Prison Level. At the beginning there were several points where I actually believed that something hadn't spawned in correctly, but it was simply the vagueness of the situation and level.

    Another problem is something that stays with the open world exploration theme, the fact that, once you have completed the main storyline, got all the red bricks, etc, there's nothing much to do round the city apart from the Taxi Missions, which are very bland, indeed. Otherwise, the number of characters is amazing, the levels are generally very good, and the only problems are to do with the issue of a lack of things to do or ambiguity

    One last thing:

    I tried completing the Save Stan Lee Missions, but after I rescued him from the Big Top (not during the Ghost Rider Stage, but when he is atop the Circus itself) it seems to not have recognised it as a Mission Complete. Perhaps Stan Lee has spawned once again, but I can't find him as the minimap still says he is stuck atop the Big Top Tent. Glitch or No, I can't reach 100% which is something I actually ENJOY doing during LEGO Videogames (unlike many games).

    I would simply say, it is a fantastic LEGO Game, but I hope I have not sprouted seeds of doubt. After all, I have been focused on the negatives as we all KNOW the game is acclaimed as one of the biggest and best LEGO Games of all time! Just go out and buy it, so long as you don't mind getting a little lost or the fact it might glitch (especially during Character Customisation).

    The plot follows the avengers, x-men, fantastic four, spider man, and many other super heroes teaming up to stop Doctor Doom, Magneto, and Loki from taking over the world and destroying all our favorite heroes once and for all. It's an extremely simple concept that goes a long way. Every level follows a few heroes going after one or two of the many supervillains. This offers much variety, in terms of both characters, and gameplay. One minute you'll be underwater in a submarine fighting AIM agents, another, you'll be scaling the statue of liberty in search of some mutants.

    The gameplay is just like any other lego game. punch enemies, break stuff, solve puzzles, the usual suspects. But somehow, the gameplay feels even more at home here than ever. There are a LOT of characters as well. Unless you're a huge comic geek like me, you'll be breaking out your laptops to research those people. It's fun seeing in all my favorite characters in adorable lego form.

    My main gripe with the game is actually the characters as well. A majority of them are all too similar. Only a few have exclusive powers, and those powers are usually crazy or weird.

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.

    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.
