LEGO Juniors Create & Cruise
If today we tend to think Minecraft when we talk about creativity and games for children, there was a time when LEGOs were all we had in mind. This physical construction game allowed us to build cities, vehicles, families and immerse ourselves in a world that is fully personalized and infinitely variable.
The LEGO license is still up-to-date and is even seen in movies, series and video games. LEGO Juniors Create & Cruise allows children to create their character – including Batman – and their vehicles while assembling the famous pieces. Then it’s time to start a race, whether it’s by car, truck or helicopter. Playful and easy, this game corresponds to children from 4 to 7 years and has the advantage of not containing advertisements, links to websites or in-game purchases.
