    LEGO Movie the videogame is another good adventure from TT Games. Like its predecessors, with some improvements but the same problems. Fun and conservative.

    It's not a bad game, but it's not a "must have" either. The LEGO Movie Videogame does a decent job telling the movie's story and being its own licensed tie-in game -- to its own licensed tie-in movie. Thankfully, both are fun in their own right.

Original lego games where about retelling movies in lego format. Recent entries in the series (Marvel, DC) have foregone any movies to tell their own story and they were greatly lacking. Even worse is that the games devolved into twitch gaming for hardcore games rather than games that kids can play. Fortunately this game goes back to basics and tells the movie story with only a minor portion being hub based. Unfortunately telling the lego movie in terms of legos looses a lot of luster. All you really do is watch scenes from the movie and then play a lego level. I have to admit that the bonus room was pretty cool though.

    This game gets back to making legos fun rather than trying to challenge gamers with reaction speed. This is a nice change back to the original games. The activities in the hub level have also been dramatically reduced so you can focus on the story and not all the extra junk that has seemed to take over recent games. There are a few questionable design decisions though. A couple of places you fall out of control with only minimal control over your character. These sections are frustrating and add little to the game itself other than to waste your time. The free play areas (which were meaningful before) are really useless now. Fortunately you don't actually have to complete the FP levels, just get all the stuff and exit out. Nevertheless I didn't really feel much desire to play through the FP levels.

    Perhaps the largest glaring issue with this game is the characters and their abilities. Legos have always been about playing with different characters (or the primary character). Emmet just isn't interesting. Nor are any of his cohorts. Bafflingly there are several abilities that only a single/few characters have forcing you to use them in certain areas. This is especially frustrating when you get to the final couple of levels and suddenly you need a brand new character. It seems like they were stretching to find characters to add (which is further strengthened by the 10 outfits for Emmet of which 2 actually appeared in the movie). It just seems like a waste of characters and abilities.

    Overall this game returns lego to formula. I really hope TT goes back to the basics for their future games rather than the hub-ladened mess that recent lego games have become.    … Full Review »
