Lego Jurassic World on the Switch. I bought a Switch for me and my kid for Christmas, and have picked up a few games for the two of us to take it in turns on. I haven't played a Lego game properly before, but this has hooked me.

It's got a few downsides, like the rolling ball level looked like a cutscene at first, so I didn't even try to control it, and some levels are made for you to come back to later with a different character, so it feels like you're stuck when you're not sometimes.

They're easy to overlook though because the gameplay is good, and it's got dinosaurs :D

Lego games with the kids are great fun. Lego Marvel Superheroes/Superheroes 2/Avengers are great if you want to keep exploring the Lego games. I have found that the older the Lego game, the harder it is. Some of the puzzle-solving in them can just be annoying and frustrating. I'd stick to the newer ones and work your way backwards rather than the other way around. They definitely learned from their mistakes!

I'll keep that in mind, thanks :)

I haven't played a Lego game for years. I think the last one was either Star Wars or Batman, and didn't start off very well. I'll definitely be trying more now though :)

Dude, I'm scarred from Lego Batman 3. The puzzles in that game are just way too obtuse even for an experienced gamer. No idea how they expect kids to get through it. lol
