One of my most beloved childhood video games. This is a rather basic concept with puzzles that are in no way challenging and combat that is simply a hack-n-slash. It shouldn't be as good as it is yet it is quite charming and engaging. It is the perfect game for mindless fun with lots of content. The vehicle levels need to go though...
i think the way this game is structured is a stroke of genius. i’m not sure if all lego games are similar given this was the only one i played as a kid but i think its brilliant. it’s so simple yet intuitive while still maintaining a sense of wonder going through every new door. not to mention the world and level design is just super solid. it’s goofy and charming and there’s metric ass ton of content (i never did get that millionth coin in lego city) and none of it felt like busy work, it was just fun :,)
this allowed me a unique way to escape into the world i grew up obsessed with and it’s still great today.

The bulk of this game is really fun, if simple, but has a lot of fun ways to casually maximize gameplay depending on the order you do things or what basic exploits you use. Baby's first speed run game! But on the other hand there's a lot of more tedious gameplay in some of the later levels and the final requirements for 100% are just straight up not fun. on this most recent replay (and possibly the only time I've ever fully 100%ed?) I did most of the game in the span of a couple weeks of casual play back in November/December but Only finished the last Super Story and Blue Cannister Challenges in JUNE. In spite of all that I've replayed the base game of this countless times which counts for something. It's fun, but not like, amazing amazing.
