Based on the first five episodes of the animated TV series called LEGO Ninjago Rebooted, this game lets players battle and defend the New Ninjago city. In the story, the Ninjas face a technological threat from the evil Overlord and his robotic army of Nindroids. You play as your favorite Ninja, jumping and fighting enemies using combo moves and attacks including punch, kick, jump, throw and Spinjitsu. You can also use your Technoblades to hack into computers, solve puzzles, and play mini games. You can shoot enemies using vehicles such as Kai Fighter, Ninjacopter, Thunder Raider and Earth Mech, and hang out at the Hub in New Ninjago City and participate in a variety of activities. The game has 30 levels of play, and you can switch between different characters when reaching certain points in the game. Mike said: Lego Ninjago is a pretty standard Lego game; you can play as multiple characters, you collect LEGO studs, go through multiple levels, complete challenges, and have different abilities with which to defeat enemies. Like any other LEGO game, it is fun and easy to play, however, there are a few differences in this game. First of all, this game is based off of the TV show and stars the same characters. Another unique thing about this game is that it features the "Ninjago Hub" which is a very small free roam area where you are able to select levels to replay, play a new level, play bonus games, or go to the store and purchase characters. It is very fun to play. Developed for Warner Bros. by Hellbent Games in partnership with TT Games.
