LEGO BATTLES REVIEW

Calling all lego fans!!! Command and Conquer has made its way onto the Nintendo DS but its been Legofied thats right those little plastic men are taking over your hand held! So this is your basic strategy game but has all the lego humour added!

If you've never done strategy before you have a "God view"(High in the sky) of the battle field and its your job to send your Lego minions into the fray. You will need to build and repair castles, farms, barracks and various other war apparatus. Make sure you create the right Lego men, trust me builders are no good in a fight and guards men are no good at harvesting food.

The cut scenes are extremly cinematic! So much so that I thought I had missed a lego movie! There's 6 stories to play and 90 levels to play through so unless you have no life at all then it should take you a month or so to complete.Then you can get into the online multiplay!!! Pit your wits against other Lego Emperors trying to take over your Empire via wi-fi or face to face(DS to DS).

I was genuinely surprised at how good this game was and did enjoy playing it. The biggest drawback would be that games of a very similar style are available as a free download to your mobile phone and this version doesn't offer much more than the free ones. So bearing that in mind this is still a good game that would keep the little ones and even a few big ones quiet for hours on end.

Rated: 3 +
Available on: DS only
Four joysticks
