Not going far enough
Tampering with the natural order of things is easy with Lego, so the genetic manipulation in "Lego Jurassic World" (Warner, PlayStation 4) should be a natural fit. However, when it comes to experimentation, this title marks a first for the whole Jurassic Park franchise: It doesn't go far enough. The action rarely deviates from previous Lego titles, but when it does, it goes in the wrong direction. If you're only interested in low-impact platforming and charming Lego interpretations of key moments from the films, "Lego Jurassic World" delivers. The biggest new feature — playing as dinosaurs — takes too long to gain any steam. Another problem rests partly with the source material; in the movies, the heroes are usually running away from dinosaurs rather than fighting them. In the game, that translates to a dearth of fun battles.
