#94 LEGO Island (PC, 1997)


As I'm sure was the case with the majority of us, I was a very imaginitive child, something that will be brought up in multiple future entries. Games like LEGO Island were perfect for me. I could spend countless hours not just building the dumbest looking vehicles and customizing the island in a way that you know a child was responsible, but I could just walk for hours. I don't know if the residents had a preset path, but I always assumed they strolled around the island randomly, and boy did I love randomness. I would emulate them and just walk around aimlessly, and that was so entertaining to me.

The game also featured well-crafted, or what little kid me thought, story mode centering around an escaped criminal called The Brickster. This included finding hidden bricks, racing underground with skeletons I think, and a chase sequence where you just launch a ton of pizzas and doughnuts.

This is one of those games from my youth that I both have long wanted to return to and also are afraid that going back to it might negatively affect my childhood memories of it. Having not done for former though, it lands in my Top 100.
