Plastic times call for plastic measures.
Lego Bricktales review
Thats not to say those early sets were forgettable!
But its that last point - the mini builds themselves - where Lego Bricktales really stands on its own.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, since Bricktales is made by Bridge Constructor series developer ClockStone, you begin with bridges.
Will it stand up?
Will it hold the weight of a Lego car?
To complete your build, you frequently have to sit back and watch and hope that it does.
And in its trickier builds, Bricktales rather simplistic construction mode does show its rougher edges.
Its here the shine of this creative mode dims.
Rather like the models I made on my bedroom floor, theres something still to be refined in Bricktales.
