LEGO Worlds

Lego Worlds is a great game and has grown considerably since it was first revealed. If you love titles like Astroneer, be sure to pick this one up.

Stupidly enjoyable and endlessly charming, LEGO Worlds is the gift that keeps on giving with different biomes – jungles, spooky forests, deserts, swamps, candy lands with gingerbread men and more - an adventure filled with quests and infinite scope to make whatever you want. LEGO Worlds is fantastic.

While most modern Lego games follow a similar formula – basically, exploiting and parodying some of the biggest pop culture culture properties around – the latest Lego game, Lego Worlds, completely eschews Batman, Star Wars, Marvel, Harry Potter, and the rest of the franchises that helped make Lego games so popular in the first place. Instead, it focuses on facilitating the joy of pure creative freedom.

A successful take on the sandbox genre for LEGO games, giving the player great freedom and powerful - even if a little bit too imprecise - tools to modify everything in the game's worlds.

LEGO Worlds may not have a story mode that emulates the whimsy of its licensed tie-ins or a game engine that runs at a consistently smooth rate, but it may just be the purest LEGO game ever made thanks to a sandbox that has solid family-friendly foundations.

LEGO Worlds is a delightful game, full of whimsy with tonnes of things to see and do. The draw of exploration is excellent as is the myriad of items to collect, but frame rate issues and quest bugs slow the gameplay down a bit.

With Lego Worlds you'll have complete freedom at the cost of been less humorous and beautiful than 'normal' LEGO games.

Forget everything you've seen so far of LEGO franchise. In this new LEGO game you are alone in a galaxy where you can visit a great amount of worlds in which you can create all the constructions you imagine. Without crafting, without having to search and store materials, without having to face any enemies, without complications ... LEGO Worlds is probably the best building game you can find in the market today.

Once you're through the early stages and you have a little more openness on what you can build and where, there's a ton of enjoyment to be had. But all the while there's still some underlying linear aspects to the gameplay that keep you in check.

LEGO Worlds is a game that allows players to explore amazing worlds, live all kinds of adventures, create whatever you want and share your creations with the world. The only limit is your imagination.

LEGO Worlds is a delightful game, and one my son absolutely adores. It is a blast to play, and outside some weird design choices, feels like a solid foundation for them to build upon. Also the price tag is just right, making it an easy game to recommend, especially with those who have kids. There is a ton of content packed in here.

LEGO Worlds can be a bit hit-or-miss. The game has switched up the series' formula and it is refreshing to be let loose and explore the vast amount of worlds on offer. The freedom that comes with all of the creative tools makes for an enjoyable experience as you explore and the addition of dungeons adds a new layer of challenge that LEGO games have never seen before. With all of this exploration, though, comes regular lag and slow texture pop-in. This causes the long hunt for gold bricks to be an even longer one but it's nothing exceedingly drastic. It's a disappointment that to create your own world you need to first amass a great number of these bricks, meaning that a feeling of repetition will creep in eventually. Despite these issues, hopping into your rocket and soaring through the galaxy for more discoveries can still be a worthwhile adventure.

LEGO Worlds is a logical answer to Minecraft. Generally speaking LEGO does well in a virtual playground, as it offers a lot of options to keep you playing. However, technical issues and repetitive gameplay takes the possibility of a good flow out of the game.

LEGO Worlds sounds like a dream, but truthfully it is not a good game. Minecraft is simply better. As are other LEGO games. You can build a lot, but it is all too repetitive.

Though ambitious and offering a powerful suite of creation tools for meticulous brick builders, LEGO Worlds is let down by its awkward controls, repetitive quests, an overlong trek to collect Gold Bricks, and a ton of technical issues.

Lego Worlds could've been the ultimate Lego game. The Minecraft inspired design is perfect for this type of game, and the game promise endless possibilities. But some bad design choices holds it back. Minecraft is still the obvious choice in the genre.

You won’t build all that much in the initial hours of LEGO Worlds.
