It's been out for a full week now on PS5 (and Nintendo Switch!), and so we want to know what you think of LEGO Horizon Adventures.
When this block-based excursion was first announced, opinions were divided. On one side of the coin, Horizon seemed like a great fit for LEGO in general, with its carefully constructed robot dinosaurs just begging to be made out of the iconic bricks. On the other, did Horizon, as a PlayStation property and potential multimedia franchise, really warrant a LEGO spin-off?
Based on critic reviews at least, LEGO Horizon Adventures ended up missing the mark — at least to some extent. Scores were fairly positive overall but didn't hit the kind of highs that you'd typically expect of an established, Sony-owned IP.
We gave the game a 'not bad' 6/10 in our full LEGO Horizon Adventures PS5 review. We praised the title's pristine visuals and fun storytelling, but we couldn't help but feel disappointed by its underlying structure. "There's absolutely fun to be had here, especially the combat, but some fundamental design decisions let the side down," we concluded.
