SYNOPSIS
LEGO Universe is a massively multiplayer online game (MMOG). The game will unite the fun, quality and creativity of a LEGO product with a virtual environment’s imaginative play possibilities! Calling LEGO Universe “massively multiplayer” means that thousands of LEGO fans will be able to team-up in the gamespace. LEGO Universe will also be a “persistent” gameworld, constantly evolved by players’ actions.
Within LEGO Universe, players will safely create, build, quest and socialize together. This entirely new online world will be the spot for LEGO enthusiasts of any age to form their own fun adventures!
FOR KIDS
LEGO Universe is being developed so that the game’s controls and features are suitable for players beginning at age eight. But LEGO fans of any age will likely have loads of fun playing in LEGO Universe. For starters, LEGO Universe will offer endless building opportunities, both solo and cooperative, to casual enthusiasts and the most advanced LEGO builders.
The game aims to bring LEGO-quality play experiences into the virtual world, so entire families can have fun together online. Everybody-- young or old-- has a unique creative style that’ll govern how they play the game!
BUILD
In LEGO Universe you can build and bring to life virtually any LEGO creation you can imagine, either alone or by teaming up with your friends. Play with your virtual LEGO models the way you do with your physical creations!
LEGO Universe players will not only find familiar ways to create with virtual bricks, they’ll also discover entirely new building methods. So far, these are the LEGO Universe building modes that have been introduced:
Quick building
Simply push a button and your in-game character starts swiftly snapping together a predetermined model. This is the primary type of building found in popular video games like LEGO Star Wars, LEGO Batman and LEGO Indiana Jones.
Choice building
Choice builds allow you to decide what a quick build will become by choosing from a range of predetermined models.
Custom building
LEGO Universe players can build their own creative and complex designs, virtual LEGO brick by brick! Details to follow in future updates!
GAMEPLAY
Every LEGO fan can experience their favorite brand of fun in the game! Pace your journey by choosing from the LEGO Universe activities you love most. Do you enjoy smashing LEGO models? Discovering hidden treasure? Achieving firsts? Competing with friends?
These are just a few of the ways to play in the ever-changing worlds of LEGO Universe!

Player vs. player competitions (PVP)

You know screenshots are ileagal. 🙁 That’s a screenshot
The kids are so excited. We just installed it and it looks great. Similar to Legos Star Wars and maybe Free Realms or something. But, uh-oh…$40 for the game and then $50 for 6 months more of play? $90 is pretty steep, and then what – sorry kids no more.
I need a coupon.
Jasper,
50 bucks for 6 months of play is actually cheaper than most MMO’s(Massively Multiplayer Online). And consider that it is what pays for further development of the game (usually they will keep adding content) and pays for the servers that your kids play on :).
The monthly rate is fine but I do have a big problem with having to pay $40 for the game itself. They should be giving away the CDs to get people to join and pay the subscriptions, not gouging people for a CD that could have been downloaded.
Major system issues. Totally crashed after 4 days of use. Kept giving me a user license error (which we had previously checked off on) and tech told us that it was a broken disc (disc hadn’t been touched so it wasn’t the problem), so had to UNINSTALL and REINSTALL from their website- HUGE pain and time waster. Very disappointed in their technical issues although my kid loves the game, it isn’t worth listening to him constanly gripe about the problems he is having on with the program. Think the monthly fees are steep for a kids game as well. Get it together Lego!
Support is horrible. Couldn’t logon because child forgot password, but Lego said the e-mail address to send temp to was wrong, but was the one used to activate. Tired a new sign up and got to logon but two weeks of trying and it still said “can’t log on, wait a few minutes and try again”. Online help wouldn’t talk to us, saying activation code (required) was already used (duh, by us). Gave up and tried to return to Target but they won’t take it back “because it’s been opened”. Infuriated…cut-up Target RedCard of 10-years and boycotting LEGO products.
Very good game, control by keyboard is for kids not so suitable. please add xbox controller support for this game.
the game sounds hard to get going but the price isnt so bad and after u get past the technical issues it looks like a great game for children 10 and up!
the price is a little high but doable and the kids just love it. sounds like theres a lot of technical issues and plus u have to have a lego.com account but i havmt had any problems…YET…
you should open back lego univers wy would you shut it down
