LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes was the first of TT Games to turn players loose in an open world, and in this case it was the massive Gotham City hub world. Read our review of LEGO DC Super-Villains. Plus, it incorporated a custom character into the story, which was a nice way of tapping into the creativity of playing with LEGO toys that’s often sidelined to focus on licensed characters. But that’s exactly what LEGO DC Super-Villains did, and it’s a testament to the LEGO games’ charm and TT Games’ specific style that they were able to make this rogues gallery of DC bad guys endearing and kid-friendly in a way that appealed to fans rather than outraged them. While LEGO Batman had a few missions starring villains, it’s rare to see an entire game, let alone a family-friendly one, take a heel turn and have you play as the bad guys. The running theme with LEGO games is how well they reimagine darker subject matter in a kid-friendly way without losing the charm of the source material. Read our review of LEGO Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures. Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures holds up amazingly well nearly 15 years after it was released, and you might even say this modern classic belongs in a museum. Like its Star Wars counterparts, this game is still a blast when playing local co-op. The gameplay showed marked improvement from the earlier LEGO Star Wars games, and like the films it's based on, Indy is a bit more focused on puzzle-solving and exploration than combat. Similar to the LEGO Star Wars games, LEGO Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures takes you through the events of the first three Indy films, but it puts a playful tongue-in-cheek spin on some of the less kid-friendly scenes. It may not seem like it should work, but LEGO Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures shows how a not-so-family-friendly film trilogy can be rebuilt with LEGO bricks without feeling like a massive departure from the source material.

LEGO BATMAN GAME MOVIE
Add in some Easter eggs (like the achievement for jumping off a ledge and falling into a pile of hay like in Assassin's Creed), a large roster that includes characters from the book that didn't make it into the movie like Tom Bombadil, and all the puzzles and action that we're used to getting from a LEGO game, and you’ve got a recipe for one LEGO game to rule them all.
Watching Boromir's emotional death scene while he's bombarded with bananas somehow makes the whole scene feel fresh in an extremely silly way that doesn't cheapen the original film. LEGO The Lord of the Rings is one of those weird LEGO titles where, instead of hiring voice actors to record new lines for the game, they just grabbed audio from the films and put it in. It may be tricky to track down now, but if you can, it's worth taking a trip to LEGO Island - just watch out for the Brickster. Multiple character classes and a surprisingly ahead-of-its time open-ish world structure make for a good time that’s as comfy as it is engaging. An escaped convict is hellbent on destroying LEGO Island, brick by brick, and it’s up to you to stop him.
LEGO BATMAN GAME PC
What would a best LEGO games list look like without the original 1997 PC adventure, Lego Island? While it may seem rudimentary by today's standards and pretty rough graphically compared to other entries on this list, LEGO Island still holds up as a fun and nostalgic adventure.
