The back end of said episodes is the Batcave, a hub that sadly isn't half as engaging as the Mos Eisley Cantina or Indiana's university. As ever, there are two characters charging around causing affray amid the plastic criminality, so if you are proud possessor of a young one or a well-meaning spouse then you're only a hurled gamepad away (or a pair of cursor keys) from some heavily refined LEGO co-op. Hoodlums need smashing into bits, street furniture needs smashing into bits, bouncing LEGO bricks needs turning into many and various intricate machines and many, many widgets need collecting (if you're that way inclined). Each contains five levels with a particular bad guy as its theme and eventual boss, and gameplay is pretty much business as usual.

The game's meat is a series of three separate episodes of vigilante crimefighting, replacing the usual three movies of the previous LEGO games. Then again, not having to walk the fine line between rolling boulder and Mongolian bar fight has also proved a double-edged sword, freeing up the level design and allowing for some frankly ludicrous stuff to be made out of LEGO that wouldn't have fit into prior canons: Aliens-style lifters, giant Riddleroperated mechs, lumbering giant Venus fly traps, hovering sludge-hoovers. Charming as Robin falling over is, wonderful as it is to see the Riddler's bouncing sneak-walk and amusing as Poison Ivy's deadly snog with LEGO guards might be - the comedy is gentle and rolling, moments of bat-hilarity are far thinner on the bat-ground. Holey ComedyĪt one level this has hurt LEGO Batman, there's a level of parody that simply isn't there anymore.

The final decision (or instruction) was that LEGO Batman should not reference any specific firm, comic or TV show but draw from the collected consciousness of all of them -leading everyone into familiar territory, but never letting us see the guidebook. So the day Warner Bros left the Batman franchise on TT's Cheshire doorstep there must have been many heads being scratched. While you played them you were always looking forward to the next major set piece, wondering how the LEGO treatment would rub off on scenes of Nazi-melting, ewok slaying or Greedo shooting (first).

Half the charm of their Star Wars and Indy plastic re-renditions was their subversion of fanboy familiarity: randomly placing Stormtroopers in Jacuzzis where there should be an escape pod, or putting a C-3P0 helmet in Indy's mitt rather than a golden idol. Having run the gamut of opportunity chez Lucas, LEGO Howard the Duck not withstanding, Traveller's Tales have taken quite a risk with LEGO Batman.
