During my childhood, I was a fan of going outside and playing sports. It didn't matter what type of sport it was; I just wanted to be outside. The only days I would be inside were rainy days. However, I now have a reason to stay inside.
"Lego Star Wars: The Force Awakens" - the next generation launch of the Lego Star Wars franchise - is a beautifully brick-constructed game that propels me back into my childhood. This game features awe-inspiring graphics that are impressive for a game that has been deemed "for children".
This Lego Star Wars solves many of the problems that the other Lego Star Wars games could not. The full array of voice actors - the same ones from the actual movie - is featured throughout this game. This improves the gameplay, as you fell as if you are actually playing out the events from the movie.
Furthermore, this Lego game has added a couple of new features that were not included in the other Lego games, such as the options during building. The gamer gets to choose how they will build specific items, which allows for the players to be creative in the way they wish to play each level.
Even though this game is great, it is not perfect. Although this game is incredibly fun, a lot of the unlockable characters are not very interesting. Many of the characters that you unlock are not interesting, have very little ability, and are almost unplayable. Even though some characters are great, it's impossible to feel as if the rewards from a mission are worth the while when you play a 30 minute mission and receive a character that you have no desire playing as.
Overall, this game is a wonderful creation: fun for all ages. It is my personal favorite Lego game. Playing as all of the characters from the movie is fulfilling. It's exciting to be able to play as these great characters that the movie made you appreciate; although, having to unlock the boring characters can be very redundant, and it often makes the game seem like it's dragging at times. This game, even with its flaws, will let everyone playing feel like a kid again, and that itself is worth the money.
