Variety has a not so great review of the LEGO videogame soon to be released “Lego Indiana Jones.” The author of the article, Ben Fritz, says the new game is disappointing considering the many smart and humorous touches in the “Lego Star Wars Saga”.
Those who have played either of the two “Lego Star Wars” titles will recognize almost the same game, adapted to the world of Nazis and whips instead of storm troopers and light sabers. Once again, gamers play through a trilogy of films…where every character and most objects are built out of brightly colored, breakable Lego pieces. Gameplay is extremely simple, with an emphasis on puzzle solving and collectables. Co-op play is a constant option, though annoyingly, developer Traveller’s Tales still hasn’t made it possible online.
