I finished LEGO Indiana Jones 2: The Adventure Continues last week. I have to say, there is definitely no other Lego game out there that is structured quite like this one. Each of the different areas feel like their own separate game, such as characters and vehicles that are unlocked can only be used in their respective areas and nowhere else. Another thing that makes this game so unlike any of the others is that rather than the levels having the option of story mode or freeplay mode, there are different types of levels, such as story levels (which follow the story events with no bonus items at all, unlike other Lego games), treasure levels (where the objective is to simply collect the bonus item at the end), and bonus levels (much like the treasure levels, except they're designed as if they were made in the game's level builder). This game also comes with a level builder, where you can create your own levels, though the only drawback I see in this particular case is that it's necessary for 100% completion. I think that such a feature should've been optional, so that those who are interested could use it, while those who are not interested wouldn't have to use it just to complete the whole game. (As much as I disliked Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4, at least the level builder in that game was entirely optional.) Despite the required level builder and a few frustrating levels, I actually liked this game quite a lot and wouldn't mind playing it again, though much like the first Lego Indiana Jones game, there are a few other Lego games I'd rather play instead.
Next on my list of Lego games to play; LEGO Star Wars - The Complete Saga
I just started playing it today, and although I'm already familiar with the story content due to watching some videos a while ago, I've already seen a few things that surprised me, now that I'm actually playing this game myself. This is the oldest game on my list, so it should be interesting to see just how how different it is from some of the later games I'm already familiar with. Even though this game has a lot of levels, many of them are rather short (just today alone, I was able to complete all the levels of Episode I), so completing this game might not take quite as long as I had feared.
