The gameplay is similar to other Lego games: you solves puzzles, find components and build machines with them. There are lots of side quests peppered through the entire world and the rewards for completing these are useful. There are a few improvements in the camera department that improve the experience overall, but not enough to the actual gameplay to make it worth writing about. Lego Movie 2 videogame is still a good-looking game and other than the first world of Apocalypseburg, which is a sea of brown, every other world in the Lego Movie 2 game is exceptional. Considering this is their own franchise, Lego and TT Games could have honestly just gone crazy and written a completely new story to tie in with the movie. It would make this a great game to play after watching the movie and would have kept the content fresh. Published in Daily Times, March 18th 2019.
