As both a parent and a gamer, I'm torn by Lego Dimensions.
It's an often wonderful game, one of the best in TT Games long-running series, and one that moves the familiar template forwards in clever and exciting ways. It's ingeniously written and structured too, juggling over a dozen character franchises with a confidence that masks the challenge of getting everything from Ghostbusters to Portal working together in a single story. It's also arguably the first game to truly deliver on the "toys to life" promise first made by Skylanders in 2011.
It's also a game that completely upends the boisterous generosity that has guided the Lego games to their blockbuster status though, and it requires a hefty financial investment if you and your kids want to access all of the extras and bonuses that have been a central part of the franchise over the last ten years.
