What Makes LEGO® Bricktales Stand Out
In LEGO® Bricktales, discover an innovative brick-by-brick building mechanic to design puzzle solutions from your own imagination. See your creations brought to life in a beautiful LEGO world where every problem has a constructive resolution.
Embark on an epic adventure across a world of beautiful LEGO diorama biomes crafted brick by brick as you search for inspiration to help your grandfather reinvigorate his rundown amusement park with your little robot buddy in tow. Your journey will take you to the deepest jungle, sun-drenched deserts, a bustling city corner, a towering medieval castle, and tropical Caribbean islands. Help the minifigures of these worlds by solving puzzles and unlock new skills throughout the story to further explore these worlds and uncover the many secrets and mysteries they contain.
From purely aesthetic creations, such as a market stand or music box, up to functional physics-based puzzles like building a crane or gyrocopter – each diorama offers a variety of construction spots with the freedom of intuitive brick-by-brick building. In each spot you are given a set of bricks and it’s up to you to figure out a unique build that will work. On top of specific puzzles and quests, there are additional builds in the amusement park so you can customize the rides to make them your own!
The Story
Your grandfather, a genius inventor, has called you for help! His beloved amusement park is about to close as the mayor is threatening to shut everything down and seize the land if the necessary repairs aren’t made to bring it up to code. With the help of your powerful little robot buddy, you can restore it using a mysterious device based on alien technology. As a source of power, the device needs happiness crystals, which you can harvest by making people happy and solving their problems. With the aid of a portal, travel to different locations all around the world to help people and collect their happiness crystals. Strap in for the ultimate building adventure and save your grandfather’s amusement park!

Community Insight:
El juego es muy creativo y divertido Sus niveles son increbles para los fans de Lego.
We got booted out of the game. Please fix this game.
When building a veeery safe bridge we press play and doesnt show what we built.
We hate the physics. We didnt made it halfway through at the beginning. It looks like you cant build your own Lego sets when we f bought this game, we thought you can build your own Lego sets but it looks like you cant.
Super fun except kept making us restart.
We were in the jungle and we couldnt continue because of a bug that our build wouldnt get on the map but we think theres a bug that has to do with it, the test bot would touch the flag but NOT have the reach the goal goal be checked off 5 star game so 5 stars (we think the bug is only on iPad).
It is not working and we just got the game today.
It appears that on iPad there is a bug in some of the builds (as early as the tutorial level when building the first light blue bridge in Grandpas lab) where the test robot will reach the flag but that will not trigger the checklist to allow us to advance the game. This checklist bug minus the test robot presence also happened with the hint nearest that bridge in the opening lab section. Shame, we just bought this game for iPad and was looking forward to enjoying it in the go, now we cant enjoy it at all until these bugs are fixed.
Its just so fun you will buy less Lego sets.
Game is so good good and awsome but it suggest that the brick sets cost less.
Have been playing for nearly two months and no huge bugs yet.
We cant stop playing been playing for 3 hours now not to easy not to hard.
A good addition to Mac OS. Played this on PC once. Its solid 4.5/5 laidback and enjoy mobile game but some frustrating controls issues just puts it at 4. Wish we get an easy way to change camera angle while we are on explore mode instead going to a pause menus and taking time to figure out where we are and where we looking at.
Love Lego and Lego games. This one though is frustrating and just dreadful. Building is the most annoying thing about this game, and it is all you do. Need to have an opinion to skip some of the builds (game builds it for you) as trying to use the controls and build stuff makes you want to throw your device out a window. Makes us not even want to continue playing since we have to keep building things and spend more time with the awful controls. Please enable a feature that will let users skip (auto build) so we can get something out of the game and want to continue playing. Seriously, the most annoying and frustrating Lego game ever made.
We were so excited to see this game become available for Apple devices! However, every time we try to enter the first portal to the jungle, the game crashes and we have to listen to grandpas speech all over Update: Just crashed again. Cant play this game at all. We have deleted every other app on our iPad and we have 15GB of space and this still wont work. Very disappointed.
This game is great. Physics puzzles all done in legos. Lots of depth and creativity too. One warning, is probably too complex for the younger crowd.
Ive played iOS games since theyve been out. We can say that this is one of the best games Ive ever played. Its a great mix of puzzle and art that is just incredible. Its also really long, which is a huge plus. It starts out easy enough but then it gets more challenging as you go along. We only have had to look up one or two solutions online as its the perfect balance of trickiness. At first we were running through the game without much thought for design, but once we got the hang of it, Im putting a lot of time and effort into the aesthetics of the items Im building. We really enjoy this game and round of applause for the developers.
So well done, very fun, and amazing value for the price.
Ive already determined its our favorite game on our iPad and thats with only playing it for 2 hours. The creativity and replayability just with the starting level alone is impressive and its heavily reminiscent of the actual toy. We highly recommend this for anyone who can run it.
Outstanding graphics and the controls are easy to use. Thank you for bringing this gem to iPhone/iPad.
