Lego Builder's Journey

Lego Builder's Journey is a puzzle game developed by Light Brick Studio and published by The Lego Group. It was originally released for iOS and macOS via the Apple Arcade service.

Why It's Just as Creative as a Lego Set

 * 1) The idea of a Lego game that uses more simplistic blocks rather than Minifigures sounds interesting. As simplistic as it sounds due to many Lego games using Minifigures, this one works out quite well and still looks charming.
 * 2) Gameplay is simple to understand. All you have to do is to step through levels brick by brick with challenging puzzles regardless of we are able to either break the rules or follow the instructions. The challenging part of this game is how you got to use your thinking skills and take time to experiment when completing a level.
 * 3) For a game with such simplistic-looking figures, this looks so artistic. Many of the levels are well designed that they can be compared to a great Lego set. And a lot of them come with different themes and atmospheres that make the Legos come to life in this beautiful game.
 * 4) The graphics are not only colorful but feel so lifelike that it captures the spirit of Legos. The lighting here is just gorgeous as well.
 * 5) There is a theme that is just too powerful. The game can serve as a metaphor for a narrative journey about the play itself, touching deeply on the belief of we only get old because we stop playing. Yep, that really does sound deep as it wants to be this game that expresses the value of creativity in a coming-of-age story. There is no specific story, but the metaphor is there. Who knew a simple game can have such moving themes.
 * 6) As mentioned before, there isn't much of a story told yet it is still pretty much there. It's basically the simple story of a kid and a father who go through different levels brick by brick while there is also a simple relationship between them. Simple yet emotional. The thing is that the gameplay is there to tell the story.
 * 7) The child and the father get their own levels. The child is themed around the wonders of imagination while the father is themed around adulthood. When they are both together, they are themed around the love of parenthood.
 * 8) Atmospheric soundtrack. Many of the music there can range from being peaceful, upbeat, or just beautiful.
 * 9) Even though the game is short in content, it can make it up for a relaxing game just to prevent stress from happening. Overall, the tone of this game is relaxing tone.
 * 10) The PC and Switch versions included new elements that were not included in the Apple Arcade version. One of them includes guiding a robot to cross the river.

Bad Quality

 * 1) The game is short in length.
