Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
113 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
While it features one of the most gorgeous LEGO engines to date (short of the LEGO movies) and does a fantastic job telling an impressionistic story in an immersive LEGO world, it is significantly overpriced for the overall experience and lacks the accessibility features or depth to make it a notable contender in the LEGO game catalog.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
91 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Visually, Builder’s Journey is breathtaking; from the environmental lighting and 3D models to the ray-traced reflections, everything is near-perfect.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
65 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The gameplay of Builder's Journey is rather simplistic but satisfying and relaxing.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
22 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Their difficulty is precisely at the right spot for a enjoyable experience, but with a hint of challenge.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
17 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Of course, the soundtrack is light-years from being some sort of Beethoven symphony or something mind-blowing, but even so, it is one of the best aspects of the game.
