As a kid this world felt massive and so full of life. Crazy playing it as an adult and seeing how small it really was.

I played Lego Island religiously as a kid. Thank you for bringing back so many memories!

“ARE YOU READY TO LEAVE LEGO ISLAND?
IF YOU SELECT THE G R E E N B R I C K
YOU’LL GO.
IF YOU SELECT THE R E D B R I C K
YOU STAY.
GREEN GO, RED STAY”

"You can move a mountain, if you do it brick by brick"

Actually, it occurs to me that the Lego universe is the only place where that line is *not* a mixed metaphor haha

This game legitimately gave me night terrors as a kid. I vividly remember having brutally violent hellish dreams where the Brickster would murder me and everyone I loved.

Care to guess which ending I got?

[cayk]

I still remember the excitement of finding that secret little cave thing. I felt like I won the lottery.

[LordEvilmancer]

Failing to stop the Brickster has haunted me for decades

[squidlump]

This game traumatized me when I was like 3 when I accidentally let the brickster out, I never wore stripes again

[sptony]

After all those years, I'm still left with one question...


WHAT'S BEHIND THE DOOR!?

[MrShoebox]

Fun Fact: The kid who voices Pepper in this game also voiced Andy in the Toy Story series.

My family could only afford one computer game for the Windows 98 Packard Bell we had. This was it.

I played this for hours until the computer overheated and died. Restart, and repeat. Then I got Civ III and played that for hours until the computer overheated and died. This was a common theme.

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.

Ah, another classic game that I liked when I was a kid. The best part hands down about Lego Island was when you tried to play this game without the CD in the drive....

YOU HAVE TO PUT THE CD IN YOUR COMPUTER *cuts to desktop*

[virtuaracer]

You had to be probably less than 10 years old to enjoy this game. The memories with my brother are much better than the game itself.

[filipmac]

look at those classic lego minifigures

[MinoTheShow]

As much as I have loved this channel for years this is probably the first game you've covered (barring Doom and Space Cadet Pinball) that I actually have any nostalgia for, given that I was born in the Win98 era.. thanks for all your great work Clint

[IgnemFeram]

I remember when I first played this I lost to the Brickster. I cried so hard! I'd never lost anything before.

[jimv]

I remember this game being buggy and cryptic as hell. This was the OG dark souls.

[WombatLoveAffair]

This game blew my mind as a kid. The idea of freely roaming around an open world was groundbreaking to many of us.

Please take a look at Lego Rock Raiders. It is the best lego game ever!
