\"LegoLego Pirates of the Caribbean
\n<\/u><\/strong>Year: 2011
\nRating: E10+
\nTime Played: ~25 hours<\/p>\n

I have to give props to Lego for making perhaps the best movie franchise video games that have ever existed. Sure, there were a few good Disney games for the SNES back in the day, but the scope of Lego’s video game adaptations of famous film franchises makes any official video game adaptations of these movies pale in comparison. Sure, it’s basically the same game over and over again with a different skin, but if it’s a fun formula, why change it?<\/p>\n

Lego Pirates of the Caribbean<\/em> may only cover the first four films in the franchise (which I’d consider a good thing<\/a>), but it’s certainly enough content to enjoy a solid playthrough. These games are fairly easy to get 100% completion on, and this one is no different. Gameplay is still the standard “collect items in each level” and “unlock upgrades and characters with studs” that most Lego video games had perfected by the early 2010s. If you’re looking for mindless destruction and fun little building puzzles along the way, this entry in the Lego video game franchise will not disappoint.<\/p>\n

Visually, I found this game had graphics that were almost too good to be a Lego game. It probably helped that I was playing on an HD system like the PlayStation 3, but it’s something that definitely stuck out when I played it. The adherence to the visual style the movies had already established helped make it feel like I was playing through the movies instead of playing through a Lego game. In the end, fans of either Lego or Pirates of the Caribbean<\/em> are likely to have a good time with this video game.<\/p>\n

A visually impressive Lego video game adaptation of Pirates of the Caribbean<\/em>, I give Lego Pirates of the Caribbean<\/em> 4.0 stars out of 5.<\/p>\n
