DESCRIPTION

Lego has created its own constructive game, Lego Worlds, to take on the game that has become its hugely popular virtual equivalent.

Minecraft has long been described as a kind of virtual Lego, letting players build any structure they like out of small blocks. But the original company has leapt into the fight with Lego Worlds.

The new game lets people build and explore worlds, using either pre-made ones that they can modify or beginning from scratch and putting together Lego blocks. As well as the normal blocks, the game includes figures and vehicles, and many more to be added as the game develops.
