Lego Marvel Superheroes Game

Hello my fellow True Believers! and may I say that this game is the best game I have ever played...Lego Marvel Superheroes by Tt Games.
I'm gonna start of by saying that I am a huge fan of Marvel and Lego so having them combined is a dream come true given to me by Tt Games who can add this to their long list of amazing Lego Games like Lego Batman 2 and Lego Lord of the Rings. As it says in the booklet, you join super heroes, listing from Iron Man, Spider-man and Hulk to Cyclops, Jean Grey and Storm, to defend against the most powerful villains from Loki to Galactus! The main plot is simple yet enjoyable, The Silver Surfer or Herald to Galactus The Devour of Worlds was sent to find more food but unfortunately comes to Earth where he is shot out of the sky blasting his board into many Cosmic Bricks scattered all over the world. The evil Doctor Doom is planning something, well, evil to take over the world but luckily enough Agent Nick Fury of S.H.I.E.L.D and his trusty group of heroes are here to stop him.

 During the game you will travel to the iconic Marvel locations like the S.H.I.E.L.D Helicarrier, The X-Mansion and even Island M but nothing is good as the open world Lego-ized New York City where you can go around unlocking new characters to add to the roster of 150+ and new vehicles to drive around. Like every good Lego game you can earn a status in each level by collecting a certain amount of studs (Lego currency). In Lego Star Wars it's 'True Jedi' or in Lego Indiana Jones it's 'True Adventurer' but in Lego Marvel Superheroes you are awarded with, like I said at the beginning, 'True Believer' status which is given to you with the voice of the one and only......Stan Lee. Stan Lee is also playable in the game by unlocking every Stan Lee in peril which is where Stan is in need of help in levels and around the New York Hub. There are 50 of these in total but once you do unlock him you are granted with an array of powers from web slinging to telekinesis.
  Another iconic character in the game is Deadpool who is, and I quote, breaking the 4th wall. He does this be taking the rip out the other heroes and even the developers. Deadpool offers his own levels where you can unlock the special Deadpool Red Brick which you can buy to get super secret extras such as a stud multiplier or festive hats (just in time for Christmas).

Well I think I'm gonna conclude the review here. Lego Marvel Superheroes is retailing for £41.47 or $67.78. It may be a bit expensive but it is well worth it for what you get out of the game. I would like to thank Arthur Parsons and the rest of the team for doing such great job on the game and can't wait for the next one. Excelsior!!
