Who doesn’t love a LEGO Game? I know we can’t get enough of them! There’s something about the brick adventures which hold a special place in many gamers hearts, giving us endless hours of puzzle-inducing action-adventure fun. After the release of LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga yesterday, we decided to have a quick look back across TT Games’ portfolio in search of the best LEGO games of all time!
Despite receiving such great reviews, you may notice the Skywalker Saga will be an omission from this list, as we’re yet to get our hands on the game! However, when we do, be sure to come back here for all the LEGO Star Wars action your hearts can desire! In the meantime, let’s delve into our (possibly controversial) ranking of the top five LEGO games that truly stole our hearts.
5. LEGO City Undercover
Kicking off our little ranking is the LEGO game equivalent of Grand Theft Auto for kids. LEGO City Undercover was a thrilling open-world experience, letting you take control of Chase Mccaine, a police officer who’s been tasked with going undercover (duh) to hunt down the notorious – and recently escaped – criminal Rex Fury and put an end to his city-wide crime wave.
Whilst lacking the movie magic which many LEGO Games fortunately possess, LEGO City Undercover still managed to capture our imaginations and enrich us with a worthwhile story-driven adventure. Driving was fun, the city was surprisingly detailed and the mechanics still hold up five years later. It’s quite easy to forget that this was made for children, as you really just cannot get enough!
4. LEGO Marvel Superheroes
Another original story from TT Games here, but this time with much more recognisable faces. LEGO Marvel Superheroes let you free-roam a LEGO replica of New York as some of your favourite characters, including (but not limited to) Mr Fantastic, Captain America and Iron Man! With over 155 Marvel characters to choose from, you were not short of exciting mini-figures to run rampant with.
Not only this, but the main plot managed to expertly intertwine all these familiar faces together with exciting gameplay mechanics, a custom hero creator, diverse vehicles and so much more! If you’re a Marvel and LEGO fan, this really was a love letter to you all, and easily makes its way onto this list. 
3. LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes
The first LEGO game to introduce voice roles, LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes laid the groundwork for LEGO Marvel Superheroes and therefore it’s only right that it goes higher up on the list!
Offering up one of the best iterations of Gotham in gaming history, the game was hit amongst critics and fans alike. Continuing the standard LEGO formula, the games story really didn’t miss a beat with the introduction of voice acting helping to bring the wacky world of LEGO to life even more. Not only this, but the character roster offered quality not quantity too, with everyone from Batman to Gorilla Grodd available to play.
This is arguably the ultimate Batman gaming experience, with everything the caped crusader is known for packed into one great LEGO journey! 
2. LEGO Dimensions
If you thought our last two entries on the list had great crossovers, well you ain’t seen nothing yet! During the Skylanders/ Amiibo/ Disney Infinity toys-to-life period, LEGO knew it was their chance to get in on the action. As a result, we got LEGO Dimensions, where you could build your LEGOs in real life then scan them into the game. Genius!
However, this really was taking things to the next level. The amount of licence properties TT Games were able to get into the game was absolutely phenomenal. From Gandalf to Batman, Homer Simpson to Sonic, it really didn’t hold back on giving us some of the wildest crossovers of all time! As such, it’s really quite impossible in arguing to not put the game so high up on the list!
A great experience for both parent and child, we really hope they’re able to bring it back and continue to add to the vast amount of franchises they’ve already got. 
1. LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga
Was there really any doubt? The original LEGO game and subsequent releases combined into one beautifully delivered package, LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga was the ultimate Star Wars experience (perhaps only to be toppled by the Skywalker Saga). Spanning across the original six episodes, the game let you take on over 120 playable mini-figures including iconic characters such as Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader and Obi Wan Kenobi.
Without this title, no other LEGO Game would’ve even got through the gates, as it set the ball rolling for one of the most successful gaming franchises in history. All the goofy fun you’ve come to expect from LEGO games was jam-packed into this adventure, and therefore it’s hard to think of another game more deserving to be top of this list.
