Leggo My Star Wars
Leggo My Star Wars
If you're looking for details about the game mechanics, I've already detailing what makes this game unique. To summarize, though, it's a 3D platform game (with the occasional pod race or space battle level) that takes place in LEGO-ized versions of the three prequel films (and no, I shan't be dropping any Episode III spoilers here). By interacting with LEGO elements throughout the stages (usually by using weapons or the Force), you solve puzzles and discover secrets.
So why would you want to spend your time playing through a (let's face it) kid's game? How about that it's a well crafted adventure with excellent control and level design? How about that there's tons of hidden goodies to entice even the most grown-up Star Wars nerd or LEGO maniac? How about that it's got a sense of fun about it that most games could only wish to have?
May the Bricks Be with You
The first thing you'll notice about the game is how freaking cute it is. All the characters are living versions of those little LEGO Minifigs, and it's a hoot seeing normally fearsome characters like Darth Maul rendered as tiny, plastic toys. And who can deny the coolness of a LEGO Christopher Lee? The game is also quite self-aware of its look and it goes with it. Destroyed enemies collapse into a pile of LEGO bricks, and the between level cinemas, although lacking dialogue, are often rather humorous.
