Units are automatically de-selected when an order is assigned (which is tedious if you’re attempting reconnaissance). Lego Rock Raiders is simple to play, but offers increasing layers of complexity and challenge as the game goes on.
shovels, drills), weapons, and even be trained in eight different skills (including driver, explosives, and pilot). They can also be outfitted with eight equipment types (i.e. Even individual Rock Raiders can be upgraded, which allows them to carry more equipment or perform complex tasks. A variety of mining structures can be built (most can be upgraded) and a slew of vehicles can be deployed and upgraded. Most of these tasks include either drilling through rock, collecting resources or building new structures. And when you haven’t assigned them anything, they don’t stay idle, but go around cleaning piles of rubble or collect minerals. But in the greater scheme of things, you assign tasks and your Rock Raiders will see them through. You can click on individual workers and assign them special tasks, or even take control of them for a third-person, ground level inspection of your base (very cool idea). In all, Rock Raiders seems definitely geared at a younger audience, but reveals itself to be surprisingly complex as you work through the many tutorial missions and attempt the campaign.Īs in the Settlers games, you don’t have absolute control over your LEGO miners, eliminating a lot of micromanagerial overload that plagues RTS games when you have a lot of units.
Sure you build up your base, collect resources and explore your surroundings – all typical facets of real-time strategy – but the game doesn’t have an opposing side to fight against (little LEGO soldiers killing each other might not have earned the game that essential E rating).
LEGO Rock Raiders isn’t your typical strategy game.
