Lego Builder’s Journey features some of the most realistic-looking Lego blocks seen in games to date. However, it is a casual puzzle experience aimed at more mature audiences, so don’t expect the freedom to design and build your own wacky creations. Instead, the game features single-screen dioramas with limited selections of blocks to overcome simple challenges. It’s still a lot of fun and looks incredible, but it can be completed very quickly and lacks any type of replay value.
Gameplay: Not very taxing, but casual audiences will find it entertaining.
Graphics: With all the ray tracing elements enabled, the game looks incredible.
Sound: The soundtrack is soothing, and the sound effects are very realistic

Graphics: Very, very minimal, but still stylish.
Sound: Calm and relaxing enough to make for a meditative experience
