LEGO City Undercover is a Wide-Open Sandbox game developed by Traveller's Tales, released for the Wii U in March 2013 and the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and Microsoft Windows (via Steam) in April 2017. Utilizing the same engine as the LEGO Adaptation Games but, rather than being an adaptation of a famous franchise, is based on LEGO's own original theme, LEGO City with a healthy side helping of Cop Show parody. The game follows the adventures of Chase McCain in his various undercover missions for the LEGO City P.D. and his attempts to track down his archrival Rex Fury, who has recently broken out of prison.The game made use of the Wii U GamePad to mimic using Chase's Police Communicator. The GamePad would function as the game's map and when using the Communicator's scanning function, the player would hold the GamePad up to the TV and physically move it around. This feature was removed from the subsequent re-release since they all lacked a GamePad and all of the features were moved on-screen.A prequel game, LEGO City Undercover: The Chase Begins, was released for the Nintendo 3DS a month after the first game's original release.Like most LEGO games, there is a great deal of tongue-in-cheek humor, along with a Hurricane of Puns, a lot of Shout-Outs, some Mythology Gags and... car theft?

Mission Control Is Off Its Meds: Whenever Frank Honey is the mission controller, very little of what he says is helpful, usually talking about his personal life before capping off with obliviously giving Chase useful info on accident.

The Artifact: In the Wii U version, the Red Brick computer in the police station allowed you to purchase and unlock the Red Bricks you found. In the remastered version, Red Bricks are automatically unlocked when found, so the computer becomes useless.

Warp Whistle: Chase can quickly make his way around 14 of the city's major districts via the metro. Each district's station has to have its ticket machine constructed first before it can be activated, barring three exceptions; Cherry Tree Hills and Bluebell National Park Stations are automatically activated halfway through Chapter 3 of the game's story, while Fort Meadows Station is a Super Build whose ticket machine is constructed alongside the rest of the build, immediately activating it upon completion.

Right-Hand Cat: The story has a few gags using this trope: Chan Chuang has a Right Hand Bunny that is used not to signify his villainy but to act as a stress-relief pet when his Hair-Trigger Temper goes on the fritz (it also barks like a guard dog for whatever reason), and Ellie comes to realize Forrest Blackwell really is evil like Chase told her because, during a public speech, he had a cat on his lap that he tenderly stroked while talking.

 LEGO City Undercover (Video Game) / int_17aaf656
comment
Global Currency Exception: In every other Traveler's Tales LEGO game, everything that can be purchased always used studs, whether it's characters, special bricks, or even buildings. While most things still use studs, this game has a unique "brick" currency, which broken objects produce instead of studs in this game, which is used exclusively for constructing Super Builds.

Adaptation Expansion
 LEGO City Undercover (Video Game) / int_23473ae7
comment
Adaptation Expansion: The 2017 rerelease makes several additions to the original 2013 Wii U release. The most notable new feature added is dedicated splitscreen co-op, which the 2013 release lacked due to a portion of the game's features being tied to the Wii U GamePad. Player 2 can drop in at any time to take control of a second Chase McCain, sharing all the same disguises, abilities, Police Communicator features & activated Red Brick cheats as Player 1. Fifteen new disguises are added, bringing the total from 290 to 305. Ten of these are alternate appearances for Chase McCain's default disguises, including the Undercover & Suit variants of his Policeman disguise, all of which are assigned as Player 2's default disguises. Another three are of Grace Makepiece, Chase's Distaff Counterpart included as an alternate player character (albeit one with no effect on the story), and comprises Civilian, Policeman & Undercover Policeman variants. Ten new vehicles are added, bringing the total from 110 to 120.

Mythology Gag: The game that Frank Honey plays very early in the game causes him to comment that "they talked more in the movie", referencing the pre-LEGO Batman 2: DC Superheroes LEGO Game adaptations by Traveller's Tales before proper voice-acting was implemented, which replaced dialogue with sighing and grunts (with a few exceptions though).

Hurricane of Puns: In classic LEGO game style, especially from Traveller's Tales, most of the humor is based on puns. But unlike the LEGO Adaptation Game franchise, the story is completely original, so the puns are even more prominent, including theme puns, situational puns, Lawyer-Friendly Cameo characters that Speak In Shoutouts, and more.

comment
Strange Minds Think Alike: When Chase teams up with Studski and Clutch to rescue Natalia, the two speculate on how she might be getting tortured, with ridiculous ideas like giving her brain freeze from ice cream and using Tickle Torture. When Natalia's rescued, she's in pain and says they fed her ice cream. Later, Chase and Vinnie interrogate one of Rex's crooks by force-feeding ice cream to him, and Rex Fury tortures Professor Kowalski by using a giant machine that tickles him. Only two characters refer to computers as "compupers". One is The Ditz Frank. The other is the highly-sophisticated Forrest Blackwell.

Adapted Out: Obviously, all major Nintendo references were removed in the non-Nintendo ports of the game, with only a few subtle and stray ones left such as Chase's quip about a giant ape being on top of a familiar structure. The one Nintendo-related Easter Egg which didn't even return for the Switch re-release was the Mario Hat Red Brick.

 LEGO City Undercover (Video Game) / int_35b241c0
comment
Ooh, Me Accent's Slipping: The fact that the game was created, or at least recorded, in Britain becomes apparent with certain phrases and pronunciations. Among others, everyone pronounces "lever" with the British "Lee-ver" instead of the American "Leh-ver", and many allusions are made to Chase having been "on holiday" instead of "on vacation".

 LEGO City Undercover (Video Game) / int_38119dcf
comment
Not the Fall That Kills You…: Played with. During "Special Assignment 3 - Miner Altercation" Chase performs a very impressive free fall for quite some time. A soft collision into wood only lightly harms him at best but he will die if he collides with something more solid. Lampshaded by Chase in-game.

After you steal a vehicle on Chan's orders from his rivals in Paradise Sands, he will comment on the state of the vehicle. If you damage it even slightly*as in one heart of vehicle damage, he'll still consider your performance better than that of his usual guy... who he promptly fires.

Non-Lethal K.O.
 LEGO City Undercover (Video Game) / int_41d128e4
comment
Non-Lethal K.O.: Unlike most LEGO games where beating up an enemy results in death by Literally Shattered Lives, this game starring a cop who isn't allowed to directly deal with criminals means most of the time you can only subdue and handcuff enemies, with them teleporting to jail afterwards. The only way to actually kill enemies is to throw them off of Bottomless Pits or into water, which you rarely get the opportunity for, and even than canonically those criminals aren't dead, just "subdued for arrest".

Paper-Thin Disguise
 LEGO City Undercover (Video Game) / int_48b9731f
comment
Paper-Thin Disguise: To ensure that no one knows he's bringing the crane to the observatory, Chase pulls out a box and draws a smiley face in a marker pen and puts it on his head. Not only that, but he also scribbles two other faces (anger and surprise) onto the other sides of the box and it's not even commented on! However, the trope is ultimately subverted as the person he was trying to fool couldn't make out Chase's appearance anyway; he forgot to bring his glasses. In The Chase Begins, Rex Fury is able to get away with committing crimes because he wears a Domino Mask that doesn't hide his face at all. The police aren't fooled by this disguise, but they believe that their photographic evidence can't convict him because he's wearing the mask. Even Natalia, when asked to identify a masked Rex, gives an unsure answer because he was not wearing a mask.

Leaning on the Fourth Wall
 LEGO City Undercover (Video Game) / int_4a3e547f
comment
A very notable example comes from Frank when he's playing video games before you wake up Dunby near the start of the game, where he'll make several Leaning on the Fourth Wall references to the LEGO Adaptation Game series, specifically the early ones compared to this one, including a Mythology Gag about how the older games had Speaking Simlish, contrasting the movies having actual talking, finding a "special" brick, complaining about there being "free play" when he spent money to play, being excited about unlocking a character before getting sad that he lacks studs for the Double Unlock part, messing around with the Character Customizer to create himself as closely as possible out of different parts, being surprised how they kept the games fresh despite having little innovation over the years, wondering what'll happen when they run out of movies to adapt, and stating his belief that setting the game in a Wide-Open Sandbox city would make it even better.

This fountain from henceforth, sprays an endless shower of blue studs around itself; it's a pretty display, though it'd be a miracle for the player to not have enough studs to buy out every disguise, vehicle and red brick by this point, even with avoiding the stud multipliers.

Grievous Harm with a Body: After successfully grabbing an enemy, you can then throw him in a chosen direction. While the main purpose of this is to try knocking over at least one other enemy for easier arresting, it can instead be turned into a One-Hit Kill for the grabbed enemy by throwing him into a Bottomless Pit or water-source due to enemies having Super Drowning Skills, the latter being much easier to perform with the "Super Throw" extra active.

Explain, Explain... Oh, Crap!: At one point, Natalia calls to chew Chase out over having the police keep an eye on her, which he knows nothing about. She describes them as smartly dressed for cops, with a black van and an unmarked limo, and... they aren't cops, are they? Done again when halfway through explaining how Forrest Blackwell is petting a cat, Ellie realizes he has to be evil based on that fact. When Chase and Henrik Kowalski find Blackwell's moonbase model in his mansion, Chase wonders how Blackwell can pull this off since the shuttle on Apollo Island isn't big enough for his cronies. He then looks at the uniquely-shaped rocket in the model and wonders where Blackwell could've hidden it. This kicks in when he remembers that there's a countdown at Blackwell Tower, realising that the tower is the rocket.

Shockwave Stomp: The special attack for the Miner suit is slamming the ground with tremendous force and sending out strong shockwaves from the point of impact, whether from a jump-slam or swinging when not next to anything. It helps with smashing several objects quickly before you get the drill and can provide some breathing room against a group of swarming enemies.

Guide Dang It!: While most of the suit abilities get an explanation or at least some hint about how they work, nowhere in the game does it directly explain that the Robber challenge on the map screen denoted by dollar bills involves breaking ATMs, with the player most likely finding out after collecting the "Data Scan Upgrade - Character Challenges" Red Brick extra and scouring everwhere for hidden challenges. This was such a common problem that one Anti-Frustration Feature for the remastered version was a loading screen that explicitly mentions this.

Real Joke Name: During the ending cutscene of Special Assignment 1: Some Assaults, Chase questions gang leader Snakes Squealer about his boss' identity, with Squealer initially claiming it to be "George Far... tar... ben... son... bury?". The obviously fake-sounding name fails to convince Chase and forces Squealer to admit it's Rex Fury, though as Squealer is arrested, he overhears a conversation between two pedestrians.

Objects that any disguise can interact with have a Brown ring, shared with the Civilian disguise. Objects that constitute part of a Free Run course are near-universally coloured white & blue.

Chan himself is said to have gone missing after his disappearance following the elimination of his gang's key members and the rescue of Natalia, and is likewise never mentioned again.

Bait-and-Switch: Almost all of the Red Herring conversations heard using the communicator's Audio Scanner run on this. Just about every other thing Vinnie Pappalardo says is some kind of stereotypical gangster Deadly Euphemism - except that everything Vinnie says he means literally. At the end, Chase's team are waiting for the command module he's in to land at the park lake, with Frank bringing an umbrella in clear anticipation for it to dramatically crash in the water. It instead lands in the oversized cafe teacup behind them without any mess.

Nitro Boost: Certain ground vehicles are equipped with this, particularly most Emergency- and all Performance-category vehicles, providing a continuous speed boost when the Nitro button is held down. A full boost charge lasts for roughly 5 seconds (10 seconds with the Longer Vehicle Boost Red Brick activated), which either recharges slowly when not boosting or quickly when the boost is fully depleted. Exaggerated with the Nitrous For All Red Brick activated, which enables nitro for all ground vehicles and some boats. This even applies to certain vehicles that lack engines completely, like the Grounddog (a skateboard) and the Revolver (a wheelchair).

When Chase teams up with Studski and Clutch to rescue Natalia, the two speculate on how she might be getting tortured, with ridiculous ideas like giving her brain freeze from ice cream and using Tickle Torture. When Natalia's rescued, she's in pain and says they fed her ice cream. Later, Chase and Vinnie interrogate one of Rex's crooks by force-feeding ice cream to him, and Rex Fury tortures Professor Kowalski by using a giant machine that tickles him.

Console Cameo: The police communicator tablets are very obviously patterned after the Wii U's GamePad since the communicator's scanning function was used by holding up the GamePad to the TV screen. These were recoloured black in the non-Nintendo ports, but it still doesn't help that the Wii U Console (and by extension, the GamePad) was also released in a black colouration & to a lesser extent, resembles the Nintendo Switch in handheld mode.

Overly Long Gag
 LEGO City Undercover (Video Game) / int_a188ac4b
comment
Overly Long Gag: Most idly standing characters have absurdly long strings of idle chatter that you'll only hear by staying near them for several minutes, before they eventually repeat the string, such as Captain Bluffbeard talking about contemplating becoming a Pirate and reminiscing about his sailor past, with him lampshading the dialogue resetting part by saying he's so old he's starting to repeat himself. A very notable example comes from Frank when he's playing video games before you wake up Dunby near the start of the game, where he'll make several Leaning on the Fourth Wall references to the LEGO Adaptation Game series, specifically the early ones compared to this one, including a Mythology Gag about how the older games had Speaking Simlish, contrasting the movies having actual talking, finding a "special" brick, complaining about there being "free play" when he spent money to play, being excited about unlocking a character before getting sad that he lacks studs for the Double Unlock part, messing around with the Character Customizer to create himself as closely as possible out of different parts, being surprised how they kept the games fresh despite having little innovation over the years, wondering what'll happen when they run out of movies to adapt, and stating his belief that setting the game in a Wide-Open Sandbox city would make it even better.

 LEGO City Undercover (Video Game) / int_a4414a05
comment
Adaptation Dye-Job: A few of the game's disguises received notable changes in the 2017 rerelease. The most notable change is the appearance of Chase McCain's default Policeman disguise, which changes his light blue torso & black pants into a full dark-blue uniform with grey hands, mirroring his minifig's appearance in the LEGO City Police set 60138: High-speed Chase. The disguise's torso features a new decal with different equipment & an updated police badge design; this decal is also applied to his LEGO Dimensions minifig, which has been included as Player 2's default Policeman disguise. Players can still use Chase McCain's original Policeman outfit as it appeared in the Wii U release since its parts are still used in the default appearance for the custom Policeman disguise (Custom B). Chase's default Fireman disguise has been changed to a black uniform with reflective stripes & a white fire helmet, which now matches the uniforms used by all other members of the LEGO City Fire Department featured in the game. The old disguise's appearance, the bright orange uniform & red helmet, is now used as Player 2's default Fireman disguise.

Da Chief
 LEGO City Undercover (Video Game) / int_a4be7043
comment
Da Chief: LEGO City PD's Chief Marion Dunby is this to a T, whether it be his constant berating of the staff around him, his near-obsessive hatred of Chase McCain in particular, or his repeated attempts to glean all the credit for Chase's hard work on the Rex Fury case for himself. Fire Chief Cornelius Burns is practically a spitting image of Dunby if he were instead a firefighter. He's aggressive, easy to anger and takes out said anger on the rest of the staff, as shown when Chase meets him in a foul mood from his crew messing up on a few things for his birthday party like the cake flavor.

Rewarding Vandalism
 LEGO City Undercover (Video Game) / int_a7372109
comment
Rewarding Vandalism: Takes it even further than the Lego Adaptation Games in that driving over things rewards you with bricks to build with, and driving over several consecutive things rewards you with a multiplier, encouraging you to destroy even more things with your vehicles. Maxing out the multiplier even makes you invincible for a short while. Your car starts glowing in many different colors, too. This is actually required, in that Chase has to break certain things so he can use the parts to build other things.

Good thing the prototypes work!

No OSHA Compliance: Several fuse boxes throughout the city have gone faulty, electrocuting anyone not equipped with a hammer to repair them. These faulty boxes can be causing all types of problems, from preventing certain devices from working or electrifying whole areas. Lampshaded by Chase in while in "Special Assignment 14 - Breaking and Reentering". With Blackwell's rocket, the command module's parachute can only be activated via a hard-to-reach lever that's nearly touching the ceiling, with no way of reaching it without climbing through the air ducts above.

Cool and Unusual Punishment: Studski and Clutch discuss the ways Chuang could torture Natalia. Such methods include force-feeding the victim a lot of ice cream to bring on an ice cream headache and making them drink a lot of soda because ladies can't burp in public. Chase initially dismisses these ideas as absurd, but sure enough Chase and Vinnie resort to the ice cream technique to gather information on the whereabouts of Rex.

When he tried it, his car lost its hood ornament and now he sets off the metal detectors at airports.

Shout-Out
 LEGO City Undercover (Video Game) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: The LCPD is practically staffed with them, including Studski & Clutch, Brickett and Blubs, Lagney & Cacey, Doorlock Homes & Dr Whatsit, Shaky Harry, and DaMumbo. After the introduction of the Villainous Harlequin crime gang, complete with one using an Electric Joybuzzer, Chief Dunby yells at all the officers present to "get after that joker". The Sentinels, Forrest Blackwell's personal security detail, are dead ringers for The Agents from The Matrix, with Sentinel Decker particularly resembling Agent Smith. Their introductory cutscene particularly brings the viral Smith to mind, given their identical appearances and Zerg Rush tactics. Chase's training session with Barry Smith during "Special Assignment 4 - Kung Fool" is a giant one to the "I Know Kung-Fu" scene from the first Matrix film. Once you complete the level that follows it, most of Chase's moves (especially his finishing moves) heavily resemble those in fight scenes from across the franchise. The cutscene as mentioned above also ends with a Street Fighter style K.O. sound effect & graphic. "Special Assignment 2 - Trouble in Stir" is essentially a wholesale send-up to The Shawshank Redemption, complete with the Morgan Freeman-sounding "Blue" monologuing over a cutscene where opera music from a record player is broadcasted throughout the prison. Several Shoutouts to the Super Mario Bros. franchise are included as the result of Nintendo being the publisher. Look out for "?" boxes, a Starman, Bullet Bills, Bob-Ombs, Pirahna Plants and Cheep-cheeps.note Many of these were removed in the non-Nintendo ports. During the final level, Rex's T-Rex is defeated in a manner similar to Bowser in Super Mario 64, by grabbing its tail and then throwing it at the explosive energy tanks around the room. This battle also takes place in space while Chase is piloting a yellow Mini-Mecha inspired by Aliens; combined with the aforementioned Super Mario 64 reference, the end result is almost identical to the final boss of Conker's Bad Fur Day. The tones used for the Space Boxes are "Daisy Daisy," from 2001: A Space Odyssey. Furthermore, one of the astronauts in The Chase Begins is named Hal Bowman. One of the symbols at the space centre resembles the Super Smash Bros. logo. During the Fireman tutorial, after the trampoline section, the instructor shows you two huge water cannons, used to put out building fires. After he makes them appear from the floor, he says "Say hello to my massive friends!", accent and all. Albert Spindlerouter (and Werner, by extension) takes The Ahnold trope to a whole new level by incorporating the name of a Schwarzenegger movie into just about everything he says. It's even lampshaded when a nearby construction worker on the same level notes that he reminds him of someone. Two major side characters are cousins Moe de Luca and Vinnie Pappalardo. Naturally, the former occasionally refers to the latter as "my cousin Vinnie". The name "Chase McCain" is a clear reference to John McClane, and both characters are loose cannons. The centrepiece of Blackwell's vault is a jewel cut into the shape of a falcon.

Domino Mask
 LEGO City Undercover (Video Game) / int_d22af219
comment
In The Chase Begins, Rex Fury is able to get away with committing crimes because he wears a Domino Mask that doesn't hide his face at all. The police aren't fooled by this disguise, but they believe that their photographic evidence can't convict him because he's wearing the mask. Even Natalia, when asked to identify a masked Rex, gives an unsure answer because he was not wearing a mask.

Developer's Foresight
 LEGO City Undercover (Video Game) / int_d24ed873
comment
Developer's Foresight: In some places, doing certain things will make Chase say something. The earliest seems to be in Warden Stonewall's office. Paraphrased is the following. Chase will correctly comment on the state of the slide if you destroy it before he finishes his comment on the fact that Forrest Blackwell has a private playground. After you steal a vehicle on Chan's orders from his rivals in Paradise Sands, he will comment on the state of the vehicle. If you damage it even slightly*as in one heart of vehicle damage, he'll still consider your performance better than that of his usual guy... who he promptly fires. If you manage to flip your vehicle completely, Chase will ask why the world is upside-down.

Anti-Frustration Features
 LEGO City Undercover (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3
comment
Anti-Frustration Features: As usual for LEGO games, the Red Brick Extras that aren't silly Easter Eggs exist to make things a whole lot simpler and easier for getting collectibles and completing sidequests. Five of the Red Bricks are Data Scan Upgrades, which allow the Police Communicator to find & tag City/Character Challenges, Clues, Tokens & additional Red Bricks. As a bonus, these upgrades are activated by default in the Extras menu. The series-staple Stud Multipliers allow the player to more quickly bank studs for expensive character and vehicle purchases, as well as more easily complete the "LEGO City Hero" stud collection challenge in Special Assignments. "Attract Studs" & "Attract Bricks" increase the player's collection radius for both currencies, allowing the easier gathering of both. "Super Break and Enter" and "Super Axe Smash" speed up the process of opening doors with the Crowbar and Axe respectively. "Super Safe Crack" & "Super Astro Crate" bypass the minigames associated with each container, opening them as soon as they're interacted with. "Super Color Gun" makes uncolored objects shot with Color Gun have the correct color applied to them, eliminating the tedium of having to find/build/interact with color swappers, especially for puzzles that require applying multiple different colors to complete. "Unlimited Dynamite" allows for the immediate planting of dynamite on silver LEGO objects without needing to seek out dynamite vendors, though it can only be used in LEGO City, being disabled within building interiors or Special Assignments. "Nitrous for All" greatly expands the number of vehicles capable of using the Nitro Boost feature, while "Longer Vehicle Boost" is Exactly What It Says on the Tin, doubling the length of time that the Nitro Boost can be used. Having both allows nearly any vehicle to exhibit speeds otherwise exclusive to "Performance"-category vehicles. "Super Drill Ride" increases the speed of riding a Pneumatic Drill to be roughly between walking and running speed, allowing it to wreak havoc and complete Drill Thrills more efficiently. "Super Fast Travel" & "Instant Vehicles" can greatly reduce the hassle of navigating the city: the former allows the player to travel to activated train stations from the map screen, affording the player a more traditional fast travel that doesn't require interacting with a ticket machine; the latter enables a unique button that allows the player to call in any vehicle on the spot, instead of being restricted to doing so from constructed Vehicle Call-In Points only. Completing the main story grants a permanent 2x brick multiplier, which doubles all brick pickups (including Super Bricks) and allows the player to easily complete any remaining Super Builds. When doing an Audio Scan, all the comedic Red Herring conversations can be Permanently Missable Content. As such, mission-critical conversations will always be scrambled, allowing you to check and replay all the other ones at your leisure first. After enough players experienced Guide Dang It! towards the dollar-denoted second Robber challenge on the Wii U, the remastered version for all systems added a loading screen explanation that states how it involves interacting with ATMs to break them. In the remastered version, Red Bricks don't require purchasing anymore, and you can use them as soon as you find them.

Contrived Coincidence: During Chase's pursuit of one of the Clown Robbers early in the game, for no apparent reason, a gardener just so happens to come along and water some plants that are in front of a fence too high for Chase to surmount. These plants grow large enough that Chase is able to climb them and get over the fence. The gardener lampshades this himself, stating that he came a long way just to water some stranger's plants. Upon performing an Audio Scan as part of the Gang Arrest Policeman Missions, Chase will always hear the perpetrators at the beginning of the conversation about the crime they're about to commit, as well as their destination.

Family-Friendly Firearms: Despite ballistic firearms being completely absent from the game, most of Chase's disguises get a projectile weapon of some kind. The Policeman disguise utilises a Grapple Gun, which can tangle and ensnare opponents for easy arrests. The Robber disguise eventually unlocks the Colour Gun, a utility tool for recolouring LEGO objects as opposed to a true offensive weapon. The Astronaut disguise utilises a ray gun whose projectiles can temporarily stun assailants, akin to a taser. The Farmer disguise has Chase pull out... a chicken that can rapid-fire eggs at objects & assailants.

Percussive Maintenance: After the Police Station's main computer is hacked, Frank Honey attempts to fix it by... repeatedly bashing its main console with a hammer. Disguises equipped with a hammer, namely those in the Construction Worker category, allow Chase to fix fuse boxes by hitting them a few times with it. Unlike Frank's shenanigans as mentioned above, this actually works.

Gameplay and Story Integration: When you start out the game, most of the challenges and other game mechanics have their related objects visibly present long before you get the ability to use them, but the blue-and-white Free Running objects are completely absent until you complete the first Special Assignment. While part of this is to prevent Sequence Breaking, there's actually a story-relevant reason: since Chase has the ability to become an Instant Expert every time he experiences New Powers as the Plot Demands, until he first gains the ability to free run he can't use them because he can't see the gaps, ledges, and grippable spots present in the walls for climbing and Wall Running or the footholds for walking securely on precarious ledges and beams, so after gaining the ability to see those free-run spots they become visibly represented by blatant LEGO pieces.

The boss complains about working with the device and manages to correct it, revealing himself to be Forrest Blackwell.

Video Game Cruelty Potential: Destroying city property is encouraged as a way to build up your block count. You can also very easily mow down the civilians nearby.

Non-Ironic Clown: In contrast to the criminal clown gang Chase takes down, several normal party clowns are seen walking about the city.

Brick Jokenote No pun intended: In one of the cutscenes on Albatross Island (LEGO City's Alcatraz stand-in), a prisoner is seen trying to escape the prison by floating on balloons. By the end of the game the man has reached the moon. Also on Albatross Island, Chase begins playing opera loudly in the Warden's office, causing its speakers to explode. Later, Chase needs to repair a DJ's broken system, and the DJ laments that he should never have played opera on it. In "Special Assignment 7 - Scrapyard Scrap", Chase teams up with Studski and Clutch to rescue Natalia from Chan. When Chase says that he could be doing anything to get info out of her, Studski first assumes he's force-feeding her ice cream, which Clutch dismisses. Sure enough, that is exactly what Chan did to Natalia. Also later on, Chase and Vinnie interrogate one of Rex's men by force-feeding him ice cream to learn of his boss's whereabouts. The end cutscene of "Special Assignment 10 - Smash 'n' Grab" has Chase escape a Sentinel ambush on a Vor motorcycle. Sentinel 2 is ordered to go after Chase, though his choice of vehicle - a Sweetie bicycle - makes for slow progress. During the epilogue cutscene, he's finally almost reached him at Crescent Park... only to get caught in the Iris Out and fall into a black void. On the title screen, after the clowns bust out of the police transport, one of them drives off in a blue car. After the credits, in the scene where the "Traveler's Tales Fusion" logo builds itself in the middle of the street, the same clown in the same car can be seen driving around.
