You’re a minifigure tasked with helping your grandfather to renovate his theme park. That’s how the story goes in Lego Bricktales. You’ll travel through a set of beautiful Lego dioramas, supporting others and collecting happiness crystals.

What we love: Feeling like you’re actually playing with Lego again. Fiddle around with the bricks and you’ll find out when your creations are defying the limits of physics. After successfully testing your creations with the help of a cute robot, you will see them make up intricate worlds in the game.

Quick tip: Do away with perfection. With no manuals to follow in Lego Bricktales, you have the freedom to create wondrous designs. They don’t need to be perfect, but they must work.

Meet the creator: The award-winning Lego Bricktales was released in 2022 and developed by Austrian studio ClockStone. They’re also the folks behind the Bridge Constructor series.
