LEGO Adaptation Game (Video Game) | comment |
"LEGO Adaptation Game" is a catch-all term for a loosely-connected series of Multi-Platform Video Games made by Traveller's Tales, based on combining the license for LEGO with that of another work, generally a film, as tie-ins to licensed toy lines based on the same films LEGO is producing and selling around the same time. With few exceptions, the games are action platforming games with the characters and stages all consisting of LEGO interpretations of the licensed work in question, with tongue-in-cheek, often parodical Cutscenes poking fun at both those works and the fact that they are made out of LEGO bricks. They generally follow the original work's story, but with a Denser and Wackier tone.In these games, death is just the character falling apart and, if it's a Player Character, reforming with just the loss of a few small round LEGO bricks referred to as studs, which are the currency in these games.The real meat of the games is the quest to 100% Completion; while simply completing the levels are typically a stroll in the park, many collectibles and rooms in every stage are initially inaccessible until the player acquires a character with a specific ability (like super strength or the ability to destroy Silver LEGO Objects). Replaying stages and exploring overworlds with these new characters reward players with more collectibles and playable characters (often numbering in the triple digits per game) until players hit the magical 100%. Games in the series:(In the order each subseries debuted) LEGO Star Wars The Video Game (2005) (featuring The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones, and Revenge of the Sith) II: The Original Trilogy (2006) (featuring A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi) The Complete Saga (2007) (a Compilation Re-release with all six movies) III: The Clone Wars (2011) (featuring Seasons 1-2 of the Star Wars: The Clone Wars TV show and it's Pilot Movie) The Force Awakens (2016) (featuring The Force Awakens and including new material based on the post-Return of the Jedi Time Skip) Lego Star Wars Battles (2021) (A mobile spin-off PvP Tower Defense game featuring content from across the films) The Skywalker Saga (2022) (featuring all nine Skywalker Saga films) BIONICLE Heroes (2006) (an adaptation of LEGO's own BIONICLE line, specifically the 2006 story arc on Voya Nui. It is the Oddball in the Series for a variety of reasons; namely that it plays like a Third-Person Shooter, is based off of a series wholly owned by LEGO, and features a much grittier artstyle than the other games featured). LEGO Indiana Jones The Original Adventures (2008) (featuring Raiders of the Lost Ark, Temple of Doom, and The Last Crusade) 2: The Adventure Continues (2009) (featuring Kingdom of the Crystal Skull and including new levels based on the other three movies) LEGO DC - Unlike most other LEGO games, the DC titles feature original stories instead of adapting existing ones. LEGO Batman Trilogy - The original three DC games focused primarily on Batman to the point of being named after him, though each one lessened the focus over time to make other DC characters relevant. The Video Game (2008) 2: DC Super Heroes (2012) (features Superman characters alongside the Bat-family, and also includes other Justice League members) 3: Beyond Gotham (2014) (features the Justice League, with a focus on outer space-based characters like those from Green Lantern) LEGO DC Super-Villains (2018) The first LEGO DC game to switch over to a name similar to the Marvel games, alongside the first Villain Protagonist title. LEGO Harry Potter Years 1-4 (2010) (featuring Philosopher's Stone, Chamber of Secrets, Prisoner of Azkaban, and Goblet of Fire) Years 5-7 (2011) (featuring Order of the Phoenix, Half-Blood Prince, and Deathly Hallows Parts 1 and 2) The LEGO Harry Potter Collection (2016 [PS4], 2018 [Xbox One, Switch]) (a remastered bundle featuring both games) LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean (2011) (featuring Curse of the Black Pearl, Dead Man's Chest, At World's End, and On Stranger Tides) LEGO The Lord of the Rings The Lord of the Rings (2012) (featuring The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, and The Return of the King) The Hobbit (2014) (featuring An Unexpected Journey and Desolation of Smaug, but not Battle of the Five Armies note it was planned for a DLC update but was scrapped) LEGO Legends of Chima: Laval's Journey (2013) LEGO Marvel Super Heroes - Like the DC games, these feature original stories. Marvel Super Heroes (2013) Marvel Super Heroes 2 (2017) LEGO Marvel's Avengers (2016) (unrelated to the Marvel Super Heroes games beyond featuring some of the same characters, as this one is an adaptation of the movies; it features The Avengers and Avengers: Age of Ultron and includes single levels based on Captain America: The First Avenger, Iron Man 3, Thor: The Dark World, and Captain America: The Winter Soldier, from Phases One and Two of the Marvel Cinematic Universe) LEGO movie adaptations The LEGO Movie Videogame (2014) The LEGO Ninjago Movie Videogame (2017) The LEGO Movie 2 Videogame (2019) LEGO Ninjago: Shadow of Ronin (2015) LEGO Jurassic World (2015) (featuring Jurassic Park, The Lost World, Jurassic Park III, and Jurassic World) LEGO The Incredibles (2018) (featuring The Incredibles and Incredibles 2)Related Traveller's Tales-produced LEGO games include LEGO Rock Band, LEGO City Undercover, and LEGO Dimensions. Many of this series' crossovers have also made the jump to animation - LEGO Batman: The Movie - DC Superheroes Unite is even a straight-up adaptation of the LEGO Batman 2 game.The games are rife with numerous shout outs, much as you'd expect from a franchise affectionately parodying popular films. | |

The Cameo: Surprisingly, Doctor Who has been briefly represented in three of the games: LEGO Marvel Super Heroes (The TARDIS), Lego Batman III: Beyond Gotham (Weeping Angels), and the series got a level pack in LEGO Dimensions, with occasional cameos in the main campaign. Also, Doctor List reused the Twelfth Doctor's hair and face in LEGO Marvel's Avengers, which was released two months after Lego Dimensions. | |

Conspicuously Light Patch: Being made of LEGO bricks is a sign that it can be destroyed or interacted with. Most games have exceptions in the form of bonus levels that are completely Built with LEGO, meaning the patches are a bit less conspicuous in those instances. | |

Foregone Victory: In these games, normal gameplay has no level fail state, you can fail a puzzle and/or die as many times as necessary until you break through and complete the level.

Sequel Escalation | |
LEGO Adaptation Game (Video Game) / int_391d6577 | comment |
Sequel Escalation: The first LEGO Star Wars game was rather small in scope, with a very limited Hub Level, around 50-60 playable characters, and the levels were decently short. As the games went on, all of these aspects were expanded on, with hubs getting bigger and more expansive until they became a case of Wide Open Sandboxes, character rosters averaging around 100 characters at minimum, and individual levels nearly tripling in content, alongside increasing amounts of collectibles and sidequests needed for 100% Completion. | |

Unintentionally Unwinnable | |
LEGO Adaptation Game (Video Game) / int_3ac5110b | comment |
In the bonus levels that involve collecting every stud in the level (such as Wayne Manor/Arkham Asylum in LEGO Batman), death will not cause you to lose studs as it would in normal gameplay, as to avoid an Unintentionally Unwinnable situation. Studs received from breakable objects will also be added to your total immediately instead of dropping onto the ground, so there's no rush to collect them all before they fade away. | |

Ability Required to Proceed: While story progression is based around the abilities possessed by your current character roster, most of the various extra collectables and side-quests require abilities you don't have at the time, necessitating replaying levels in Free-Play or waiting to unlock World Free-Play so that you can use characters with those abilities. | |

Stylistic Suck: Everything is kept pretty simple and even sloppy as if to drive the point home that the game is a toy first and foremost and things aren't meant to be taken particularly seriously. Probably less "stylistic" at first as Traveller's Tales were a shovelware dev at first making licensed platformers and kart racers, then played straight from that point on due to the first LEGO Star Wars' success. | |

LEGO Adaptation Game (Video Game) / int_42048ac5 | comment |
Follow the Money: In games with large hubs/world maps, the game gives you a trail of ghostly or holographic studs to guide you to your destination. Of course, since they're not real, they're not actually worth any money - unless you activate a cheat. The normal version with real studs is also used. | |

Fixed Camera | |
LEGO Adaptation Game (Video Game) / int_47bbacb4 | comment |
Fixed Camera: Most of the gameplay areas have the camera locked to specific angles that only shift when moving past designated spots, with the introduction of camera controls only allowing looking slightly further before snapping back. The only time you can properly move the camera at will to different angles is when in the open-world sandboxes starting from LEGO Batman 2, and even then there are some mini-puzzles (particularly mazes with overhead views) that lock the camera during them. | |

Pickup Hierarchy: Primary: None (the games can be completed by just beating every level without actually collecting anything) Secondary: Lego canisters to build minikits, Blue Challenge Mode canisters, Gold Bricks, Power Bricks, extra characters, game modifiers (the latter two are a Double Unlock and have to be bought with studs after they're found or unlocked with Power Bricks and then bought.) Tertiary: Studs Extra: Various bonus content unlocked by collecting a certain number of gold bricks | |

Early-Installment Weirdness | |
LEGO Adaptation Game (Video Game) / int_4f4372e9 | comment |
Early-Installment Weirdness: The first few entries in the series did not feature dialogue in the cutscenes (aside from the occasional simlish), and were pantomimed instead. This was dropped from LEGO Batman 2 onwards, and the games now use a mix of lines from the source material and original voice acting. | |

Death Is a Slap on the Wrist: Dying just makes you lose LEGO studs followed by an instant respawn on stable ground. These aren't meant to be Nintendo Hard games unless you're trying to get 100% Completion, which sometimes demands a No Death Run.invoked | |

Speaking Simlish | |
LEGO Adaptation Game (Video Game) / int_54d5074 | comment |
Speaking Simlish: The earliest games used a small voice cast speaking gibberish in the cutscenes, and relied on the players to have seen the movies and know how the story goes already. Later games used dialogue samples from the movie being adapted, voice actors performing new dialogue, or a combination. | |

Bragging Rights Reward | |
LEGO Adaptation Game (Video Game) / int_55e5b37c | comment |
Bragging Rights Reward: The Studs X8 and X10 Red Bricks in all games are rather superfluous, as their expensiveness means it's hard to unlock them before finishing the story, while the stacking nature of multipliers means getting the cheaper X2 and X4 bricks provides a X8 multiplier that lets you breeze through acquiring True status and buying all the other unlockables, so the last two mostly exist for achievements involving reaching an absurdly high number of studs. All of the games have either a super-expensive character or a 100% Completion reward that exists mostly to represent that you have truly completed the game. Most of the time these are characters or vehicles that play just like a more easily gotten and cheaper character/vehicle, so you have little reason to use them since everything they could do, you've already done in the process of unlocking them. | |

LEGO Adaptation Game (Video Game) / int_5f77b0b7 | comment |
Multi-Slot Character: In almost every game, a good chunk of the roster is made up of variants of major characters, so you'd have young, mature, and old versions of Obi-Wan Kenobi from Star Wars and multiple versions of Indiana Jones. Some get really bad about this, though, such as around 14 different versions of Emmet from The LEGO Movie or the 6 main ninja from The LEGO Ninjago Movie having 5 versions each. | |

Critical Existence Failure | |
LEGO Adaptation Game (Video Game) / int_64f0c18c | comment |
Critical Existence Failure: This is present for everything in these games. The player and enemies can keep fighting at full strength and vehicles can ride around at full power even when only a sliver of health away from death/destruction, only finally breaking down into pieces once that final bit of health is gone. The most that happens is exhibiting cases of Shows Damage, which is quite common for vehicles, but even when you're effectively driving an exposed engine on wheels it acts like all the visually missing necessary parts are still there. | |

LEGO Adaptation Game (Video Game) / int_6ac6a56a | comment |
And Your Reward Is Clothes: There are many "characters" in the games that aren't really anything but alternate outfits for the characters. Some, however, do have slightly different properties. Later games, including Marvel Super Heroes and Jurassic World, give each distinct character only one slot in the selection grid, which rotates through the available outfits for that character, so that the overall size of the grid gives a more accurate idea of how many actual characters there are. | |

Several parts of levels are confusing since the typical Color-Coded for Your Convenience mechanics are difficult to identify due to lighting. Other puzzles are easily overlooked, since they involve repeating an action which granted you something important to the level and give you a minikit the next time, or recreating a condition of the level which goes against the player's instincts to move on (since the games are normally very linear). | |

Compact Infiltrator | |
LEGO Adaptation Game (Video Game) / int_828b321a | comment |
Compact Infiltrator: Across the series, there are special characters known as "Shorties" who are able to crawl through small ducts or paths to reach otherwise inaccessible areas, such as an Ewok sneaking through a vent to pull a switch on the opposite side of a forcefield barrier, or using Short Round to reach a high ledge to pull on a rope that raises a platform for you. All of the "superhero" games starting from LEGO Marvel Super Heroes, including the LEGO DC games starting from LEGO Batman 3, feature a "Vent Travel" mechanic where there are vents with grate gaps too small for most characters to pass through, necessitating characters with Sizeshifting powers like Ant-Man or The Atom, Rubber Man powers like Mr Fantastic or Plastic Man, Elemental Shapeshifter powers like Sandman, or Energy Beings like Livewire, in order to pass through them for solving puzzles or finding hidden collectibles. The "superhero" games with Sizeshifter supers, in addition to Vent Travel access, also have a special interaction where they can shrink down super-tiny for entering and traveling through paths that are too small for normal-sized characters. | |

World of Pun: Ever since spoken dialogue was introduced, a great deal of what the characters say involves making puns relating to either their character or the current situation, sometimes even basing the puns off a Mythology Gag that wouldn't make sense playing the game without prior knowledge of the adapted franchise. Heck, even the early games involving Speaking Simlish had characters engage in plenty of Visual Pun scenarios, both for gags and as references to the spoken dialogue from the source material, and outside of the dialogue, there's plenty of punny imagery that pops up here and there, especially as a Funny Background Event. | |

When distance-tagging (the ability to tag to another character without standing next to them) was introduced, you may have thought about using this to tag yourself out of falling to your death. However, if the death has already been registered by the game, you'll lose your studs anyway and you will be left at 25% health (12.5% in LEGO Batman) as a punishment. | |

Loads and Loads of Loading: Any of the PSP versions of the games can fall into this. Oddly enough, the 3DS versions of the games fall into this as well. Considering that 3DS games are cartridge-based, unlike the Wii or PSP, the fact that these games have loading times nearly as long as those of LEGO Island 2 is rather perplexing, especially when compared to other games on the system such as Ocarina of Time 3D or Super Mario 3D Land, which have very short loading times. Worse, not only are these loading times long, but they are also very frequent. In general, the open worlds in games such as The LEGO Ninjago Movie or LEGO The Incredibles suffer from incredibly long load times. | |

Hard Levels, Easy Bosses | |
LEGO Adaptation Game (Video Game) / int_b4696bc | comment |
Hard Levels, Easy Bosses: While bosses usually possess various gimmicks to provide decent challenges, the fact Death Is a Slap on the Wrist means you just need a bit of patience to figure them out and beat them. But the levels leading up to those bosses include things like herds of swarming enemies that are sometimes enhanced with Respawning Enemies or puzzles that can get so difficult they enter Guide Dang It! territory, meaning reaching the bosses provides most of the real challenge. | |

LEGO Adaptation Game (Video Game) / int_b9e82f09 | comment |
Playable Epilogue: Starting with the introduction of fully explorable hubs, there also came the introduction of numerous collectibles that are normally locked out from you getting during story mode. This is where "world Free Play" comes in, where after completing the whole story, you become able to switch between characters on the fly through bringing up the character grid just like during level Free Play. Even later games started making it where you can access Free Play character selection by using a "character purchase" panel before getting total free changing by completing the story, until eventually by The Incredibles they just let you switch on the fly in the hub no matter when you are currently in the story. | |

Solve the Soup Cans | |
LEGO Adaptation Game (Video Game) / int_c564ef1 | comment |
Solve the Soup Cans: The puzzles to find the hidden minikit canisters, Red/Power Bricks, and various other collectibles. You won't know something in the area will make those items appear until you've already done it. Finding these items without a guide (or the Minikit/Power Brick detector cheat) can be difficult. Several parts of levels are confusing since the typical Color-Coded for Your Convenience mechanics are difficult to identify due to lighting. Other puzzles are easily overlooked, since they involve repeating an action which granted you something important to the level and give you a minikit the next time, or recreating a condition of the level which goes against the player's instincts to move on (since the games are normally very linear). | |

Escort Mission | |
LEGO Adaptation Game (Video Game) / int_cfda0ecb | comment |
Escort Mission: One common type of sidequest following the introduction of explorable hubs involves escorting an NPC somewhere while protecting them from enemies. However, unlike most escort missions in video games, the escortee follows the same Death Is a Slap on the Wrist status as the player, so no matter how many times they die you'll never fail it, which is helpful because quest NPCs are highly prone to Artificial Stupidity and are not Friendly Fireproof, meaning most of their deaths will come from them being in the way of your auto-targeted attacks. | |

Developer's Foresight | |
LEGO Adaptation Game (Video Game) / int_d24ed873 | comment |
Developer's Foresight: When distance-tagging (the ability to tag to another character without standing next to them) was introduced, you may have thought about using this to tag yourself out of falling to your death. However, if the death has already been registered by the game, you'll lose your studs anyway and you will be left at 25% health (12.5% in LEGO Batman) as a punishment. No matter who you select as your starting character for a Free Play stage, the game will make sure to hand you a character from every required unlocked ability you have for your stage roster. This way, you are always able to grab every collectible that you can in a stage playthrough, provided you have at least one unlocked character for a class. | |

No Campaign for the Wicked | |
LEGO Adaptation Game (Video Game) / int_d291ea97 | comment |
No Campaign for the Wicked: While all the games let you unlock and play as villains, averting this gameplay-wise, it's zigzagged on a game-by-game basis when it comes to the story. Given most of them adapt stories revolving around "heroes beating villains", it's usually played straight. However, every so often they give you special bonus missions where you play as villains wreaking havoc, LEGO Batman: The Video Game had Another Side, Another Story about how the villains set up their plans before Batman caught up to them, and LEGO DC Super-Villains finally averts this entirely by being the first game to feature Villain Protagonists as the main focus, with it this time having the heroes get lesser focus. | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
LEGO Adaptation Game (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: If you come across a Two-Keyed Lock when playing by yourself, activating it will cause the AI-controlled character (or the nearest or most appropriate if there's more than two) to activate the other one of their own accord. Related to the above: In Free Play, if you enter an area that requires a specific character, the AI will automatically cycle through the roster until it finds one with the same ability. If you're in cursor mode, you don't have to worry about any enemies harming you due to being unable to take damage there, so you can continue your task unimpeded. Starting in The Hobbit, going through free play now lists the individual segments of each level, as well as which collectibles still need to be found in each segment. Starting in Jurassic World, the Free Play character select menu includes a list of what abilities each character has to make it easier to figure out who can solve what puzzles. In the earlier games, enemies would often attack and interrupt you while you're building something. At some point, Traveller's Tales made it so that you're invulnerable to damage while building, which was a godsend. In the bonus levels that involve collecting every stud in the level (such as Wayne Manor/Arkham Asylum in LEGO Batman), death will not cause you to lose studs as it would in normal gameplay, as to avoid an Unintentionally Unwinnable situation. Studs received from breakable objects will also be added to your total immediately instead of dropping onto the ground, so there's no rush to collect them all before they fade away. | |

Almost every character has unique animations for actions such as standing and running, while in earlier games most characters shared similar animations. The UI has been updated in multiple ways: character portraits now feature the character doing their idle animation rather than a static picture, the portrait border went from a static circle to varying depending on the game, and multiple characters now have unique crosshair designs. | |

LEGO Adaptation Game (Video Game) / int_e545e190 | comment |
Nerf: In the earliest games Stud Multipliers costed the multipliers themselves times five hundred thousand, being 1,000,000 for x2, 2,000,000 for x4, etc. This means each multiplier after the first two was technically cheaper, as the compounding multipliers were much faster than the cost scaling. As the games went on these costs were constantly revised in an effort to make getting each multiplier as hard as the last, until eventually in The Skywalker Saga they finally scaled it so the combined multiplier of all previous multipliers makes them each effectively cost a million studs, being priced at 1,000,000, 2,000,000, 8,000,000, 48,000,000 and 364,000,000 for the x2, x4, x6, x8 and x10 multipliers respectively. That game's case is especially justified by the revised extras system allowing you to buy any extra so long as you have a datacard, so that players still have to get the multipliers in order. | |

Kill Screen | |
LEGO Adaptation Game (Video Game) / int_eb8e10f | comment |
Kill Screen: In the unlikely event that a player keeps one of these games up running for over 24 hours, one will find the game engines for them were not built to handle such long continuous playing, as animations and light effects will break, the framerate will often lag horribly, and scripted elements like in boss fights will fail to trigger. All that's needed to fix this is just a normal restart, after which everything will go back to normal. | |

Downloadable Content: Starting with LEGO Harry Potter Years 5-7, the games have had extra characters available as DLC. New copies of the games sometimes include codes to download these characters for free. | |

Built with LEGO | |
LEGO Adaptation Game (Video Game) / int_f381e8e0 | comment |
Built with LEGO: The name of the game(s) is taking various franchises and recreating them with varying amounts of LEGO, particularly making it where if it's made of LEGO, it can most likely be interacted with in some way. | |

Product Placement | |
LEGO Adaptation Game (Video Game) / int_f511ea9b | comment |
Product Placement: All the games have been based on pre-existing building sets, naturally. More than that, most games are timed to tie in with a related movie release, such as The Lego Movie and The Lego Movie 2. | |

Adorable Evil Minions | |
LEGO Adaptation Game (Video Game) / int_f56b24c4 | comment |
Adorable Evil Minions: Pretty much anything evil automatically becomes quite cuddly, or at least Laughably Evil, when turned Lego. | |

Running Gag | |
LEGO Adaptation Game (Video Game) / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: In nearly every LEGO game, there's a room which has a disco, and the disco theme in question is a remix of a piece of the soundtrack. In many of the games, there's at least one scene where a character is seen sleeping with a teddy bear, regardless of the setting. | |

Sequence Breaking | |
LEGO Adaptation Game (Video Game) / int_fb111d49 | comment |
Sequence Breaking: Generally in Free Play mode, where you can choose any character needed to traverse the level, which means you can skip a number of puzzles to proceed through the level. Sometimes you can this outside of Free Play mode as well. | |
