Charming Early 2000s Lego Browser Game - Lego World Builder

[Space_Dandy]

It seemed I was one of not too many people who played this back in the day, it was on the Lego website as a browser game. I really enjoyed it, it was super relaxing and charming. Just a cute little game. It was basically an RTS and became surprisingly challenging as you progressed.

I couldn't remember the name and never heard anyone talking about it, so it was lost to me. Unfortunately there's a newer game also named the exact same thing, Lego World Builder, so that didn't make it easier to look things up. But looking it up again after forgetting about it for years, looks like documentation has improved and its easy to find now. Revisiting it today I found myself actually struggling on some of the later levels.

It's available for download if you want to check it out: https://index.maskofdestiny.com/LEGO/gms/download/ClubGames/

Only problem is there's no fullscreen option (not even Fullscreenizer worked). To increase the size I had to resort to magnifier, which works fine since you don't need to do anything at the edges of the screen for this game anyway.

I remember right after the LEGO Movie came out, Chrome had a 'Build with Chrome' applet that let you mess around with all sorts of lego shit. There were challenges where you had to build according to the prompt, free building, and it had a public build space similar to r/place (except you couldn't vandalize.) It's gone as of 2019, but it was fun to toy around with.

Here's the Brickpedia page on it.

Holy crap I remember going to the Lego website on Internet Explorer and playing every Lego game. Remember the Bionicle point and click adventure?

Last year, I had a friend mention that he had a Lego strategy game on the DS as a kid and it dug up a fucking ancient memory. Lego Battles: It looked like dogshit and I only played it for a short while but it's a memory.

Yes! I played a bunch of them too. I remember a Bionicle one where you're walking around a village talking to people, like a simple adventure/RPG.

I believe all the old Lego website flash games are archived in the Flashpoint archive. https://bluemaxima.org/flashpoint/

Fuck that takes me back. Forgot I had flashpoint installed, I should play though some of the old browser games I used to like as a kid. I know the one highlighted in the OP was one of my favorites.
