LEGO's foray into video games began nearly 31 years ago with LEGO Fun to Build on the SEGA Pico. Since then, games built around these iconic Danish bricks and minifigures have blossomed into their own genre, largely thanks to Traveller's Tales' addictive blend of action-platforming and the countless pop-culture properties they've LEGO-fied.

Narrowing down the best was a challenge, but we've compiled our Top 10 LEGO games of all time (so far!). Don't forget to check out the recently released LEGO Fortnite!

The 10 Best LEGO Games

10. LEGO Island

No LEGO game list is complete without the original 1997 PC adventure, LEGO Island. While its graphics may seem dated, its charm endures. Stop an escaped convict from destroying LEGO Island, brick by brick! Its diverse characters and surprisingly open world make for a fun, nostalgic adventure. Finding a copy might be tricky, but the trip to LEGO Island is well worth it (just watch out for the Brickster!).

9. LEGO The Lord of the Rings

LEGO The Lord of the Rings cleverly uses audio from the movies, creating a surprisingly effective and humorous experience. Witness Boromir's death scene with a comedic twist! It boasts a large roster, including book characters like Tom Bombadil, along with the familiar puzzles and action we expect from LEGO games. A true contender, though not quite the top of the list.
