The alien monster invaders have left Bricksburg in ruins. It is now up to Emmet and a host of heroic characters to go beyond their world and save their friends from the strange inhabitants of the Systar System. Players can journey into outer space, discover new worlds, and test their Master Building skills.
As the song in the film, "everything's not awesome" with this one (camera, screen tearing...), but it still delivers a ton of content and a solid promise of fun if you plan to play it with a kid, In some ways, it's a more open-world-focused offering than other LEGO licensed games, that brings back some ideas lost in LEGO Worlds.
The Lego series is not typically as evolutionary as videogames usually are. But with The Lego movie 2: the videogame, TT games drastically changes their way to offer us a title which explores an unseen way of playing in the main Lego series. A twist that is reminiscent of their forgotten Lego worlds and that seems to fit perfectly here. Hopefully, an open door to the future of the saga.
The LEGO Movie 2 Videogame might seem like business as usual, but it's the addition of sandbox bits, the slew of items and gadgets, and the emphasis on exploration and puzzles that make TT's latest LEGO foray a cut above. Everything is (relatively) awesome.
The levels are well-designed, whilst the questing, building freedom and gathering of tools helps it to standout from many of the other LEGO titles. Throw in the massive amount of items and characters, plus the exciting relics, and there’s a lot to like. Unfortunately, it’s lacking in the storytelling department, has far less longevity than one would expect for the price and often repeats objectives for the side quests. Oh, and it’s frustrating to have so many technical problems.
The Lego Movie 2 Videogame rarely pushes the player to do anything other than go into their building menu to select one object, and ends up being a shockingly bland experience in a series that has been mostly consistent in doing fun things with different properties.
The LEGO Movie 2 Videogame feels like a rushed attempt to release something by the movie's release: it sports some nice ideas like not having to swap characters to use all the abilities, but it's got several technical problems and the lack of spoken dialogues feels like a step back for the series.
Quotation forthcoming.
