    I played this game for about 4.1 hours and finished the main story. No 100%, no side content—just a casual playthrough to see what it’s like after picking it up on a heavy discount. Story The story is basically just the movie. And I mean literally. Instead of properly adapting it, the game uses actual movie footage mixed with in-game cutscenes, and the transitions between them are really bad. It feels disjointed and awkward, like it cuts in the middle of scenes and then jumps into gameplay.…

    Pretty good Lego game, especially if youre looking for a collectathon type of game. Did have long tutorials. I loved the mecha part in the beginning it was satisfying to play. Hence the Epilogue was my favorite level. The chain moves were entertaining and helped keep it fresh with characters having different moves/weapons. Couldn't hurt to watch the movie before or post game some story parts are skipped over. Pretty decent lesson to be learn for the younger gamers. Apparently it has co-op which…

    Overall, I would say that this game was good, not great. Being the 12th Lego game that I've replayed this year (and despite my constant love for Ninjago as a TV show) this one doesn't quite hold a candle to a lot of the other games in the TT/Lego Franchise. That being said, I would be a liar if I said I had no fun at all playing this one. The character roster is great, the dojos are super fun to go through, and while the levels are relatively short, they're good for what they are. I think I…

    AS I played this game, one thing was clear. SPINjitzu is throwable. While playing this game I enjoyed it, but It was PEAK trash. This is 100% the worst best game ever. It feels like a gormet meal thats been left out too long. I would very much recommend this game. it is a experiance.

    Don't buy this game, even on discount. It crashes all the time with more or less recent PCs. Completely unplayable, especially with children, since it just crashes to desktop in the first boss fight. Not worth a cent IMO, and shame on TT for this.

    LA-LA-LLLOYD This is a light and fun game that’s perfect for both kids and adults looking for a relaxed, enjoyable co-op experience in the LEGO style. The game has 14 story chapters and combines the semi-open world of NINJAGO City with fairly linear levels — letting you both explore the city and complete action-packed missions with small tasks and battles. The combat system is simple and intuitive: moves are straightforward, combos are easy to pick up — compared to some other LEGO games…

    Its different kind of LEGO game. And like it says in title, its LEGO Ninjago MOVIE. Its from the movie. Not the real ninjago stuff, which i grew with. I really wish there was lego game on PC about the older Ninjago stuff. Something in Ninjago was just.... so beautiful. Chima and Ninjago were easily my favorite LEGO stuff. And definely my childhood. But the gameplay itself is fun, its alot combat. The open world/free roam system in this game is not so open like in other LEGO games, but its…

    Now that I have 100% completed the game (and in under 24 hours), I feel like I should make a review to anybody willing to sit down and spend an entire day trying to beat this very annoying game. I am also going to mention that after you have completed the game there seems to be a very bad crashing issue, make sure your NVIDIA drivers are up to date and enable v-sync. The story is absolutely great and a very enjoyable one, I personally do not watch Ninjago but this game was a blast however…

    the story is fairly short, and some fights can become repetitive. If you're not a NINJAGO fan, the plot probably won't leave a lasting impression. Overall, it's a fun, lighthearted LEGO adventure.

    Honest review: This game is by all definitions not good. Voice Acting: Not very good, the VAs sound disinterested half the time. Graphics: Not good, even for a tie in game. Compared to other TT games' games, this game looks like a PS2/Wii game. With the only exception being the movie cutscenes used in game which of course look way better then the game's native cutscenes. Gameplay: Not very fun either. Combat is very shallow but pretends to be in depth by having a lackluster skill tree and one…

    This is probably TT's best lego game. It was a pleasant surprise. Graphics still hold up really well for it being a 2017 release. There's two points where I'll dock it for: - The ending crept up a little too fast, after Level 8, I thought I still had a couple to go, but... nope. that was it. - The game crashes, a lot. I don't know if it's a Windows 11 issue, but I've tried everything. it seems to be whenever it feels like it. I crashed maybe 20 times across my 100% run, which was always…

    A disappointing and tedious game. Honestly it isn't that much worse than most lego games but it's feels more unpolished and rushed compared to most. Definitely playable and even enjoyable at points but nowhere as good as prior ones. It's also much shorter which can be better or worse depending on you. The combat was the only unique and positive thing here, with a more diverse moveset and generally fluid combat. The story is just a stripped down version of the movie, missing enough of…

Don't get me wrong, it's still LEGO game, you go and smash all you can, but here you're not forced to replay levels after beating it in story mode. You just get to roam the area as you please. It's way better than one big hub. Not gonna say much about how the game plays in general - you played one Lego game you know how all of them feel. Story is in tune with the cartoon. Sure I…

    Unfortunately, the game is unplayable, just like any other lego games around this time. The engine they used either can't handle modern hardware or can't handle windows 11, therefore the games (along side other ones like Jurassic world and Hobbit) crashes whenever you're in a hub/open world areas, due to engine unable to flush old assets. While this is an annoying issue on previous games, it's mostly avoidable due to the fact you have levels. Ninjago forces all the "story levels" to happen in…

    The LEGO Ninjago Movie Video Game is entertaining without being exceptional. The improved combat and movement give it a fresh feel, but the repetitive levels, weaker story adaptation, and occasional technical issues keep it from reaching the heights of the very best LEGO games, such as LEGO City Undercover. It's a game that experiments with new ideas, and while not all of them work perfectly, they help it stand out from the usual LEGO formula. Personally, I quite enjoyed it. While I understand…

    The story doesn't follow the movie well, the open world is the same as the level design, & i wish there were more abilities from the show like Lobobo's plants, Neuro's mind control, Gravis' levitation & Krux & Acronix's time power. None of that is bad when compared to Kai getting hs spinjitsu powers last. History shoud not be repeating itself.

There isn't much variety in characters, I think there's only a handful of characters that aren't ninjas and are actually of any real use which is pretty ♥♥♥♥ considering there are 101 characters to unlock.

However, I love that you need to collect all the characters instead of just buying them. Not needing to replay the missions was nice too and the freerome great. It having a battle mode was great as well. Combat was a lot of fun too, a little repetitive, but it is a Lego game, it had a lot more fighting than I expected. This…
