You would have to be a hard-hearted gamer not to love the Lego games, based on popular franchises such as Star Wars and Batman, with their slapstick take on plotlines and amusingly mumbled dialogue, reports The Times http://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/technology/games/article3019247.ece
Pitching you into familiar scenes from all the Pirates films (including the fourth, On Stranger Tides, which is out on Wednesday), the latest game boasts beautiful graphics and, crucially, gets Jack Sparrow just right — brilliantly converting Johnny Depp’s peculiar rum-addled gestures and camp running gait into blocky form.
Minor niggles aside (for example, there’s no option to save a game mid-level; the game crashed on me twice), Pirates eliminates some of the frustratingly illogical trial-and-error puzzle-solving of previous Lego games with new icons and floating indicator arrows, while the two-player option makes it a splendidly madcap game to play with kids. Yaar!
