![]() Turning that on whilst in Municiberg places an incredible amount of icons around both sides of the co-op screen. One thing that wouldn’t go away, however, was what happened when I activated the ‘Find Collectables’ Red Brick. However, the computer puzzles were only in-game for two puzzles, then just stopped working completely - press circle, puzzles solved instantly, no muss no fuss. You know, as long as you can see the race start markers, and they don’t just straight up disappear for no reason, even after restarting the console, only to come back just as randomly. Not only are Dash and Syndrome the fastest movers in the game, but they’re also the ones you’ll want to use for the 25 races scattered around. What isn’t as expected is the driving, which is incredibly clunky and really poses the question of why they bothered including so many vehicles as few missions actually use them, and I for one always just switched to Syndrome or Dash to get around the city of Municiberg. The gameplay itself is trademark LEGO, with building, punching and everyone having a different power. Okay, enough about the voices and the time spent unable to play the game. Unfortunately, other characters were either badly voiced, or repeated the same phrases over and over again - JUST SHUT UP, MERIDA, IT’S NOT A LUCKY CHARM. I will give props to Ally Johnson for copying Holly Hunter’s ‘cotton wool under the tongue’-style voice very well. Well, Jason Lee returned to voice Buddy Pine and Syndrome, but most of the others were stand-ins. ![]() Speaking of voice acting, the cast did not reprise their roles, nor did the game apparently use audio from the movies. Others were at random points in the open world section, so annoying enough, but at least I didn’t have to listen to Helectrix’s “surfer dude” voice for 20 minutes on those occasions… Once was right at the end of the level cutscene, so not far enough for the autosave to kick in, but enough for the trophies to ping up. Sadly, the game crashed multiple times in my roughly 13 hours of playing to around 80% completion. Load times aren’t usually a big issue in a game, especially with LEGO The Incredibles’ 20 minute long levels. Loading into the game from the main menu takes about two minutes, and loading into a level (or exiting and reloading a level because there’s no option to restart) takes about one minute. Okay, yes, I mentioned the ludicrously long load times already, but now I’ll explain what I mean - and no, I’m not talking about the long, unskippable, opening logos. Because I’ve said a couple of nice things, but I certainly have some negative things to talk about. I have had a lot of fun with this game, so I’ll set it up like a boss at an annual appraisal. Other collectables include 210 gold bricks, 12 red bricks, 120 minikits and 40 vehicles.Ī number of characters can only be unlocked by opening these minifig packs, thankfully only obtained in-game ![]() After all, can you name 20 Incredibles characters, let alone 113? Because that’s how many characters you can unlock, including Finding Nemo’s Dory, Toy Story’s Woody and (obviously) more, although most of them are Incredibles-related. ![]() But that’s enough about things that aren’t me playing LEGO The Incredibles - I certainly had plenty of time to think while the game loaded for entire minutes at a time…īecause watching one of the six or so versions of this is so fun.Īs mentioned already, this game covers the events of both The Incredibles movies, but there are an absolute ton of Pixar easter eggs, and even unlockable characters. It took you through the first two movies, and they planned on releasing DLC for the third one - but that didn’t pan out. It’s not uncommon for TT Games to release a tie-in to a recently released movie - LEGO The Hobbit was released around when the home release of The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug came out. Once that’s done, you can go to the start of The Incredibles. You can’t even play the first half of the game, because it picks up at the end of The Incredibles and takes you through to the end of The Incredibles 2. I don’t get to the cinema at all, really, and this is no exception - but going by past licensed LEGO games I can pretty much guarantee that this will spoil that movie, so avoid if you wanted to go in spoiler-free. Reviews // 2nd Jul 2018 - 4 years ago // By Andrew Duncan LEGO The Incredibles Reviewįirst of all, I should preface this by saying that I haven’t actually seen The Incredibles 2.
