LEGO video games are commonly released as action/adventure and open-world titles, plus party-style minigame collections. Multiplayer options usually include local couch co-op and, for some titles, cross-platform online multiplayer.
In LEGO board and tabletop games, players add bricks to shared or personal structures to score points or build features like towers or palaces. Some games tally bricks directly for points, while others use spinners or randomized results to determine which colored bricks are added.
LEGO game toys support fine and gross motor skills, creativity and creative thinking, sensory development, and problem solving. Preschool and toddler game-sets also promote early skills like counting, color recognition, and turn-taking.
Party-style LEGO video games typically support up to 4 players and emphasize local couch play; some also offer cross-platform online multiplayer. Physical LEGO strategy and board games generally support about 2–4 players.
Examples include arcade-cabinet replicas with mechanical elements, board games that use bricks during play, toddler board-and-build learning games, and multi-model building toys that rebuild into gaming-themed models.
Replica cabinets can include mechanical maze elements, a 4-way joystick, an illuminating coin slot, an adjustable score display, rotatable character figures, a rear panel to view mechanisms, buttons that change figure behavior, and a handle that activates the mechanical maze.
