Complete these and you’re rewarded with gold bricks which can be used to repair and refuel your spaceship and get you as far as the next world.
Some of these pirates have tasks for you to do – build a pirate throne, construct a clock-tower. You begin the game as an astronaut, your little spaceship crash-landing on a tiny tropical planet full of Lego pirates. A game that started out in early access as a very basic, very freeform Minecraft-style game has evolved into something quite different. Like Dragon Quest: Builders, it mixes up the Minecraft gameplay with a storyline and quests, and there’s even a hint of No Man’s Sky in its procedurally generated scenery and basic structure. Yet while it’s a sandbox game of resource-gathering, construction, exploration and adventure, Lego Worlds also tries to bring something different to the experience. While far from a direct clone, it’s certainly a take on Mojang’s classic, with those chunky blocks and pixelated textures replaced by shiny plastic Lego bricks.
There’s no point denying it: Lego Worlds is effectively Lego Minecraft. Available on PS4 (version reviewed), Xbox One, PC
