Embark on a brick-built adventure, unlike any game that came before it with the atmospheric, geometric puzzle-solving experience of LEGO Builder’s Journey.
Unlike the intergalactic adventures of LEGO Star Wars or the multiplayer mayhem of LEGO Brawls, Builder’s Journey really is all about the bricks. We’re going to cover everything you need to know before you jump into this delightful and experimental gaming experience. Plus, we’ve thrown in some amazing gaming PCs you can pick up to play this title.
The Zen of Brick-Building
With its calm atmosphere, gentle sounds, and realistic presentation of LEGO bricks, Builder’s Journey offers an immersive experience. Solving puzzles in this geometric adventure requires you to sometimes follow instructions. At other times, you will have to break the rules.
With its free-form approach to puzzle solving, LEGO Builder’s Journey invites you to jump head-first into the LEGO experience. Its narrative promises ups and downs, challenges and celebrations, and many more hallmarks of the journey all LEGO builders go through. If you come away itching to grab a LEGO set and start creating something, then the journey will have been worthwhile.
Show Off Your Creative Side
Of course, what would any LEGO experience be without some free-thinking and creativity? In Creative Mode you will be able to build your own models to experiment with. Start by picking a themed build plate and then get to work. Go classic with a race car or pirate ship. You can even build an entirely new scene from LEGO Builder’s Journey itself.
Once you are happy with your work, enter Photo Mode to show it off. Adjust the angle of the camera, change the mood by switching backgrounds and lighting, then take a snap to post and share with your friends.
What Platforms is LEGO Builder’s Journey Available On?
Originally released exclusively for the Apple Arcade in 2019, LEGO Builder’s Journey was ported to PC and Nintendo Switch on June 22nd 2021. The game is also available on Xbox One, Series X|S, PlayStation 4, and PS5.
