Attention all Lego enthusiasts! Have you heard about the new game, Lego Voyagers? It's the highly-anticipated follow-up to Lego Builder's Journey, and this time it's a co-op only game. That's right, you and a friend can team up to embark on exciting adventures together. But will it be as big of a hit as its predecessor?
There seems to be a trend among developers these days to create co-op only games, and Lego Voyagers is no exception. However, it's a bit risky since you need to find someone who wants to play the game at the same time as you. But fear not, as the game offers local co-op and a free Friend Pass, similar to Split Fiction, so you can play with any of your friends, even if they don't own the game. It may not be the same as sitting on the same couch, but it's still a great way to socialize while playing.
The game's developers, Light Brick Studio, previously brought us the calming and meditative Lego Builder's Journey. Now they're back with another playful and leisurely puzzle game, but this time it's designed for two players. Each player controls a single Lego block and traverses beautifully crafted Lego landscapes, some with an industrial aesthetic and running water, creating a sense of realism.
The game also incorporates realistic physics, making it feel like you're actually playing with Lego bricks. The wobbliness and unpredictability of the blocks add a fun and comical element to the gameplay. And with two players, it becomes even more entertaining as you both clumsily make your way around. The game also offers various distractions and pranking opportunities, adding to the overall sense of fun.
Don't worry about making mistakes, as the game is forgiving and respawns you instantly. So if you accidentally fall off a platform or into the water, you can quickly bounce back and continue on your journey. This helps avoid any tension or frustration between players, especially during challenging platforming sections.
The game's ambient soundtrack adds to the relaxing atmosphere, encouraging you to take your time and enjoy the game's puzzles. Speaking of which, many of them require trial and error, as you build wonky bridges and stairs using mismatched bricks. It's all about experimenting and having fun, rather than rushing through to the next objective.
One of the most enjoyable moments in the game is when you both have to pilot a boat together, each controlling one engine. It requires communication and spatial awareness, as you navigate through the water using tank controls. It's in moments like these that minor disagreements may arise, but with the forgiving nature of the game, it's easy to laugh it off and continue on your journey.
The game's split-screen perspective allows for a sense of togetherness, but it can also make some platforming sections frustrating. To help with this, you can use a button to clip onto nearby Lego bricks, making long jumps less troublesome.
As you progress through the game, the puzzles become more complex and require more tinkering to solve. However, just when you're getting into it, the game comes to an end. It's a shame, as it feels like it ends too soon. Perhaps the developers intentionally kept it simple and easy, but it may leave some players wanting more.
Overall, Lego Voyagers is a delightful experience. It may not have the same scale and depth as other co-op games like Split Fiction and It Takes Two, but it offers a unique and enjoyable four hours of joint exploration. It's perfect for younger players or anyone looking for a more peaceful and contemplative gaming experience.
So gather your friends and get ready to build, explore, and have fun in the world of Lego Voyagers. You can find the game on various platforms, including Nintendo Switch, Xbox, PlayStation, and PC.
