Toys and Games Reviews of LEGO Island 2

Customer Review: Fun, Fun, Fun and MORE Fun!
Summary: 4 Stars

I have never played any Lego PC games before. and let me say this, on my computer, Lego Island 2 looked fantastic. For fans of Lego blocks planning to buy this game, you won't be disappointed. Every single object in the game looks and sounds like the actual plastic blocks.

In Lego Island 2, you play as the skateboarding pizza delivery boy, Pepper. Armed with his trusty skateboard, he has to save Lego Island from deconstruction caused by the evil Brickster who stole the magical Constructopedia. Along the way, you will get to travel to Knight's Island, Adventure Island and Ogel, in order to rescue Lego Island. Many cut scenes will tell the story ( which is your typical kiddy corny story , and to be honest, the cut scenes are some of the best I've ever seen.

Exploration is vast and fun. For any adventure gamers or youngsters who like exploring, Lego Island 2 is like a giant chocolate dessert for you. Vast areas to explore and with vehicles such as the glider,a petrodactyl, police car, a kinght's horse, a bi plane ( the list goes on and on and on... ), makes exploring Lego Island, and the places to come, a pure joy. By hitting the 'Enter' key, players can customize, to their own liking, the vehicles or any plant or decoration in the game.

Lego Island 2 is filled with 'Sub-Quest'. From fishing to parachuting and racing to fancy skateboarding, every 'Sub-Quest' presented in the game is highly enjoyable to play.

Lego Island 2 boost up to over 56 characters to interact with, and let's say these characters are very helpful! No walkthrough is needed for this games as by talking to the characters twice, the characters will POINTS you in the correct direction. A first I've since in Action/Adventure games.

However, a game like this does not come without flaws. Sometimes, especially in SOME 'Sub-Quest' games, the controls are highly frustrating and to make matters worse, the quest itself is very challenging. An example from the game is where the player has to joust with another knight. The player has to continously hit the 'left''right' button at the same time , which is very difficult, quickily in order to win the quest. It took any tries to win the quest and after that, my fingers ached.

Overall, Lego Island 2 is like a virtual carnival. There are lots of rides and games to play with and for those of you who think Lego Island 2 is another boring kiddy game, think again. My 21-year Old cousin who is a fan of sports games and like me, is skeptical of this game at first, is now already addicted to this game.

A great present to anyone who just wants to have fun!

Description of LEGO Island 2

Boasting a whopping 18 subgames scattered throughout an intricate realm of islands, undersea worlds, deserts, and space, LEGO Island 2 focuses more on adventure and less on construction than previous LEGO titles. Players assume the identity of renaissance dude Pepper: pizza delivery, deep sea diving, astronaut training, and jousting are just a handful of the well-rendered experiences that await adventurers. The arrow keys get quite a workout as the game progresses, as they control everything from speedboats to parachutes to tyrannosaurs as Pepper changes modes of transport. Pepper churns through this world fending off the Brickster's henchmen robots, collecting pages of a "Constructopedia," and mastering various challenges in order to progress. Subgames must be completed in a sequence, and can then be re-accessed from Pepper's house. Players must work to build Pepper's pad, find the subgames, and chat with other characters for clues about how to move through this LEGO landscape. Players who want it all handed to them on one clickable screen will be frustrated: LEGO wants you to work for your pleasure, and get some calluses on those fingertips.

The charm of this impressive Windows-only program lies in the attention paid to detail, dialogue, and creative fun. The undersea game doesn't just have fish--it has narwhals and rowdy pirate skeletons growling curses. A knight straight out of Monty Python and the Holy Grail intones "Nay, nay, nay, one-who's-name-is-a-spice" when Pepper asks for help. Creators put a skateboard park on the island just for the heck of it. LEGO Island 2 provides both great game play and ample opportunity to freestyle. Also, the fluid detail of this program belies the chunky origins of LEGO life as we know it.

That detail comes with a price: it takes some time to load the subgames and scene changes even if your system meets the game's requirements. If LEGO Island 2 were one of Pepper's pizzas, it'd be an ultra mega deluxe, piled high with mummies, pterodactyls, and renegade robots. It'd also take a longer time to bake than your plain cheese, but the wait would be worth it. (Ages 6 to 99) --Anne Erickson
