      How hard was it to catch the brickster when you were a kid? I remember we’d give up and someone else would try for like an hour. We were really young. I had Lego island 2 as well, but we never had this much fun.

    Being the first computer we had and just dial up Internet only for email, we assumed everyone’s computer overheated and died after a few hours. Nope, just a crap computer.

  • @MrEightThreeOne

    I definitely like this game a lot, I don't think it has aged very well but it was pretty ambitious for its time and I admire its effort. There was a definite amount of work put into making it worthwhile which can be hard to appreciate but I remember playing it a ton just for a lot of the detail and effort that was put into it. But you are certainly right, the overarching game simply has too little to do and you can finish most of the major stuff in a short amount of time. Did enjoy this though, for sure!
    Also, thank you for clarifying the 10FPS thing...I was so sick of seeing reviewers completely clueless as to why the game was so "poorly programmed" when they were playing the game on hardware way past the game's original release date.

    I remember loving this game so much as a kid--mostly just because I loved Legos haha, but beyond that I was actually pretty well taken with the illusion of the open world. I loved just doing the pizza deliveries and cruising around the island--very much the same sort of mild, lowkey pleasure that I've gotten later in life via driving for Uber, or driving 45 minutes to work each day for another job, or running cross country after school, or other such forms of simple, repetitive, menial activity. Doesn't speak very well to the gameplay haha, but as a literal child I enjoyed it.
    If there was one gripe I actually do remember it was the fact that you couldn't get that goddamned lego skateboard anywhere in real life! Haha, oh how I yearned for that Lego skateboard, or maybe not "yearned" but in any case I wanted it for my little lego worlds, but so far as I could discover by looking at toy store shelves and the straight up Lego Magazine my child self talked my folks into getting me a subscription for somehow, that skateboard was phantasmagorical, legendary--ungettable haha. I got over it. That said, to this day if someone shows me an actual physical Lego set with the skateboard in it, I think I might poop. Poop in ecstasy, mind you.

    Oh wow, thanks for doing a video on this :)
    I got Lego Island in 2002(?) in a 4-pack software box from a Scholastic Book Fair. It also came with Lego Creator (essentially a virtual box of Legos with no rules), Lego Racers 2 (an actually very solid racing game for kids), and Lego Chess (the game that taught me how to play chess). All three of those other games ran fine, but I had a hell of a time getting Lego Island to run on our family's computer at the time, a Windows XP rig with a Celeron and I think 128mb of RAM, I don't remember what GPU it had. Not much of a computer, even by 2002 standards, but it was way too much for that old game. One time I "broke the computer" trying to play it, and my parents said I couldn't play Island anymore. If I remember correctly, I eventually found a patch on the internet that made it more compatible with newer machines.
    A few years later, I got Lego Island 2 for the PlayStation at Toys R' Us. That one is a much better game but still has issues. Terrible controls, I definitely remember that part, especially for those damn space missions. :P

    It was no Myst, but for a 10 yr. old in '97, this game was loads of fun. Funny part, for me, is that every time I smell a certain type of candle (like mango or tropical scent), I get vivid flashbacks to playing this game. We must have had a candle burning on or around that computer desk during that time. Strange how smells can trigger such strong memories.

      I was just coming here to say that. Talk about creative, you could build your own car brick by brick!

      That game had the best character and world I've ever played (this is coming from a kid who was probably the biggest lego obsessive in England circa '98). Looking back it probably did a lot of things wrong, but the sounds, music and especially the setting were so charming.
      I've been trying to get it to run to no avail, I'd love any tips if someone has them.

      But the menus were confusing (as a child :( )

      Yeah, Lego Racers was awesome!
      But as CaveManta said, going back, its... a lot easier then I remember it being as a kid. Still love the game though.

    Well, you've finally done it. you've hit on a PC game I am actually incredibly nostalgic for... and that's kinda rare given I've always been a primarily console-centric individual. Which shouldn't be a surprise because this game sold like gangbusters from what I've been told. its my second PC gaming memory behind like... Sonic 3D Blast's PC port.

    I never played the first one, but I picked up Lego Island 2 from Bealls Outlet when I was a wee lad. It was one of my favorite games back when

    I loved, loved, loved that game as a kid. I STILL remember every lyric to the Brickolini's jukebox songs.

    ohhh man this like one of the first few 3D games I ever played on PC. My oldest brother was a total nerd and kept our PCs up to date with all the latest tech the 90s had to offer.

    I just discovered your channel yesterday and i have to say: I feel entertainend and well informed by your videos! And that comes from a retro-console-player without experiences at playing on the PC.
    Thank you! :)
