LEGO Jurassic World Reviews
f you missed it before and are a fan of either LEGO, Jurassic Park or both, then grabbing it on Switch is a no brainer.
From the minute LEGO Jurassic World is booted up, it's obvious just how rushed production was in order to get it out to tie in with the film
LEGO Jurassic World follows the tried and tested formula but is missing that little bit of magic, despite John Williams' amazing score being part of the expereince.
Despite those problems however, Lego Jurassic World is undoubtedly one of the stronger games in the series. There's far less needless time-wasting compared to Lego: The Hobbit's dull crafting, and the levels themselves can be great playthroughs. It draws on the greatest hits of Jurassic Park, and while your love of the franchise will determine your love of the game in the end, gamers with a soft spot for plastic dinosaurs would do well to give this a shot.
Typically polished and enjoyable, if overly familiar
It's a shame about the bugs, which could be the product of meeting the movie deadlines rather than oversights from the developers; or maybe the fact that it had to sit alongside four other LEGO titles this year alone. But if you can look past randomly flying triceratops or temperamental vines - LEGO Jurassic World is still fun, full of charisma, and with enough unlockables and customisation to keep your attention.
Jurassic World is obviously a great theme to pursuit when creating a game in this genre, though whereas the game has its moments to shine it more often stumbles. Fans of the movies and returning players who want some more to play should have a decent time with LEGO® Jurassic World, but it is definitely one of the weaker instalments in the LEGO® franchise.
LEGO Jurassic Park is, as ever, a sizable package with plenty of replay value when it comes to finding every hidden nook, cranny and minikit. However, the same gameplay persists as do some of the same bugs and glitches – often revolving around co-op play. So while it is nice to revisit locales both new and old, it's not so great to see the same issues and problems when you get there.
LEGO Jurassic World para Nintendo Switch es el mismo juego de 2015, pero con todo el DLC. La implementación de dinosuarios como perosnajes jugables, y el enfasis a los puzzles hacen de esta una entrega unica en la serie. Pero los probelmas tecnicos y el debil uso de la serie de Jurassic Park hacen de esta entrega una de las más debiles.

LEGO Jurassic World is true to its source material and easy on the eyes, but underneath that shiny exterior lies dated and far too familiar gameplay.
I would definitely recommend the game if you’re both fan of the Lego series and the Jurassic Park movies.
There are also quite a few memorable moments throughout the game, but when you're playing through the fourth or fifth chase scene or big dinosaur fight those initial flashes of brilliance lose their luster.
Lego Jurassic World isn't a high point for the Lego series, but it's more enjoyable than last year's Lego Batman 3: Beyond Gotham, despite the absence of exotic alien worlds and a slightly dull cast. It doesn't stop the feeling that things need shaking up in the world of Lego games, but it still delivers what matters most: strong co-op gameplay, plenty of laughs, some engaging puzzles and a smorgasbord of silly slapstick fun.
LEGO Jurassic World recreates several scenes of the Jurassic Park series in the LEGO fashion that we've got to know and this game features a healthy amount of humor and good co-op mechanics which will suit younger players and family gaming sessions perfectly. While it doesn't feature any groundbreaking new features, there's enough in LEGO Jurassic World to keep players entertained across different ages.

The comedic lengths the game goes to make the series's trademark wanton cruelty palatable is impressive.
If you’re a LEGO or Jurassic World fan, then it is easy to recommend LEGO Jurassic World.
While LEGO Jurassic World does nothing particularly ‘new’ or exciting to distinguish itself from other platforms (other than being portable, which it pulled off three years ago on PS Vita anyway), it’s impossible to not be swept up by its charming recreation of the Jurassic saga.
Lego Jurassic World gives families four dino-filled adventures to romp through in the increasingly familiar Lego template.
Overall, LEGO Jurassic World continues to employ the same familiar features seen in the LEGO series with a few additions to change things up. The changes may not be major enough for folks who want a completely new experience. For fans of the series or people looking for a family-friendly game, however, LEGO Jurassic World just might scratch and claw that itch.
There's lots of enjoyment to be had here, but it's also cruel reminder that the LEGO franchise needs something new to break out of its now conveyer-belt approach.
