Lego Worlds is the Danish block makers' take on the popular videogame Minecraft. Considering Minecraft was modelled around Lego bricks, Lego Worlds should have debuted a long time ago.
Nevertheless, they are here now and it is safe to say the game could give Minecraft a run for its money. It isn't as sophisticated as its competitor yet and there are millions of addicts glued to it right now. But, judging from how Lego Worlds is right now there is a good chance it will catch up.

The game starts off with you crash landing your spacecraft into one of the many worlds. There is a tutorial that tells you what you can do to get off that world and move on to the next. Along the way, you learn how to use the controller and various features in the game. The coolest part of the tutorial is the voiceover. We felt like doing things only because the voice told us to do it. The actual tutorial on the other hand is not detailed enough to help you out. You will still struggle in discovering how things work. The game is not intuitive enough to figure out when you are struggling. This is a constant problem through the course of the game, but you will notice it less as you learn aspects of how the game works.

There are a lots of downers. For starters, the camera angles are all over the place. The combat is just awful; the game could have done without it. Lego Worlds is essentially grinding, world after world, collecting gold bricks so you can unlock even more worlds, bigger and grander than the last. It seems rosy to start with, but does get a bit tedious as you move along. The game looks brilliant; it is bright fun. While the other titles rely on their narrative to encourage you to go on, the motivation here dips once the narrator is out of the picture.

There are some good parts to the game. We love the discovery tool, you can discover new prebuilt objects and then use the tool to build them anywhere in the game. It is the first tool you learn how to use and remains a favourite. Though building anything for the first time takes a set number of bits, so, make sure you are collecting them wherever possible. Once you pay the price of admission for a particular object you can use the discover tool to make as many as you would like. Unfortunately, you can't use the discover tool to scan treasure chests. The next tool we love is the build tool. It is similar to building a thing out of Lego in real life, though in real life I suspect we have better camera angles.
Vehicles are also great, something that's woefully missing in Minecraft. The destructive ones are especially fun to ride around in.

Lego Worlds has a lot going for it, if it can get the camera angles and combat sorted in eventual updates. As a Lego title it is disappointing, but as a game it is something we know we would keep coming back to at least to earn the title of master builder. The game seems more suited to kids who spend way too much of their parents' money buying Lego bricks. This way we can just spend the one time and build pretty much anything. The game is perfect for Lego brick enthusiasts, though Lego videogame fans might enjoy this title, mostly because there is no narrative that ties the world together. For the price on consoles, it is a great title for kids to explore.
