    I have played every lego game and am a true fan despite the control issues they have always had. This game is not as good as the Lord of the Rings game but is still pretty good. I don't know about the other system versions but the xbox one version is very, very buggy. The game does a lot of forced replay of battles which gets a little tedious.

The game does a lot of forced replay of battles which gets a little tedious. It is beautiful to look at and the music is great as always but the things the characters say gets really repetative, I sort of miss the silent games of old. The only lego game that really shines with the new talking is the Batman 2 game. The inclusion of the building game that was introduced in the Lego movie game works great and the resource gathering is also fun. Overall the game is good but not great and charging $60 dollars and not including all movies and forcing us to pay more for DLC is not right. I will still buy all Lego games and feel that they are doing a lot of things right but some things could still be improved upon.… Expand

    Puzzle designs was not great for a lego game. It does have some fun levels and the open world is good but not as good as lego Lord of the rings. Can't even explore Erabor, which is a bit of a letdown. Also didn't include Hobbit 3. The mining ores system was fun at first butler somewhat annoying when it was required for certain transactions. But still fun as its based off the Hobbit.

    Despite not including anything from the third Hobbit movie that could provide a satisfactory ending, Lego The Hobbit has enough content and charm to keep you entertained until the inevitable next Lego game. [July 2014, p.76]

    There are a few memorable moments sprinkled throughout this adventure, but this newest LEGO game covers too much familiar ground.

    A conservative LEGO title, which keeps unchanged the franchise's pros and cons delivering us another story in Tolkien's universe. If your kids loved the movies, it's definitely a suggested game especially if you're looking forward to playing it with them.
