![]() The focus is more on co-operative adventuring with an emphasis on exploration, uncovering all manner of secrets and using some logical thought processes to overcome the intriguing challenges and puzzles found along the way to the final destination of Mount Doom.Įxploring Middle Earth and attempting to destroy The One Ring had the potential to be a wondrous affair, with character switching and use of various collected items to carry out all sorts of tasks - such as setting fire to objects to open new pathways, building platforms for reaching new areas, piecing together specific items to cross hurdles, triggering puzzling solving sequences - and taking part in some monumental battles against foes from the fantastical world. However, in the LEGO version all the violence is handled using the tiny bricks and studs instead, there is no blood and the more gruesome elements are replaced by cheesy cut-scenes (voiced for the most part, pleasingly). LEGO The Lord of the Rings is a perfect example, since as with the Harry Potter books/movies there are dark vibes in several parts that would leave younger ones quivering under the hem of their mother's skirt. The LEGO line of video games is a great light-hearted way of transforming what can sometimes be extremely serious content into something much more digestible for the wider audience.
