Lego Ninjago: The Videogame

Jamie: I’ve played loads of Lego games. I like them all. What I like is just that you can be Lego people and build buildings. In Lego Ninjago you get to do that. It starts off with Sensei Wu and his brother who is the evil one. Sensei Wu has four Elemental ninjas: ice, lighting, earth and fire, who have to learn something called Spinjitzu, it’s a way of fighting, they turn into a kind of tornado. In the game they all try to defeat the brother and his army of skeletons.

You can control more than one character at once. You can have the four ninjas and the Sensei and a samurai and a builder all at once. You tap the touch screen to choose the character you want to use, and then tap the screen where you want them to go. If you want to fight someone you click on them. If you want to build something you select the builder and can choose which buildings to build.

You can click on a power up button and there will be two options for you to choose. I and II. II is more powerful, but you need more gold bricks to buy it. The power ups give you more health and damage. The ninjas can unlock elemental powers. The ice ninja can freeze things, the earth ninja can have rock-hard skin, the fire ninja has a fire blast, and the lighting ninja has a lighting bolt, or he can have a really fast sprint.

I liked Lego Ninjago. I liked that you could be the ninjas. I liked the story, it was cool, with the different elements, and the cutscenes were good. I also liked that once you complete the ninja campaign you can play as the skeletons.
