Brawler with platform game elements, bringing to mind Super Smash Bros. series. In Lego Brawls we take part in fierce fights on various arenas, battling for victory as characters from the title bricks.
LEGO Brawls is a brawler with platform game elements, designed mainly for multiplayer action. It was developed by Red Games studio and published by LEGO Games.
At first glance the gameplay in LEGO Brawls brings to mind the Super Smash Bros. series, popular on Nintendo platforms. The action takes place in multi-level arenas presented from the side. Depending on the selected mode, two teams (up to four players) or single players (each of whom fights for himself) face each other and try to eliminate opponents or take control over the arena.
Fights take place in a variety of locations characteristic for each LEGO series. You can find here, among others, a medieval castle, a pirate's cove, the Wild West and the marshy caves of LEGO Ninjago. In the arenas there are boxes containing various power-ups, such as healing items or weapons, which if used skillfully can tip the balance of victory on our side.
Before starting the game, it allows us to create our own warrior from scratch; we can decide on his appearance or preferred weapon, and thus - the fighting style. As we progress, we unlock a variety of cosmetic add-ons that allow us to better customize the character to our individual preferences.
In LEGO Brawls you can play solo, but the game was designed with multiplayer mode for up to eight players in mind. The game also has cross-platform features.
LEGO Brawls features colorful and eye-pleasing graphics, which in terms of quality and style do not differ from what we are used to from other LEGO projects.

Game Ratings for LEGO Brawls Video Game.
Gaming Age: by Matthew Pollesel
It's not inconceivable that LEGO Brawls could turn into something fun one day. If it were beefed up with loads more content, along with more interesting and more dynamic fighters, it would definitely be a lot more interesting. But in this state, with so little content -- and with the content that is there being of such poor quality -- there's no way to classify LEGO Brawls as anything other than a massive disappointment.
Checkpoint Gaming: 4 / 10 by Tom Quirk
I can see LEGO Brawls' appeal as a free-to-play mobile game, where its simple mechanics and repetitive game modes are more excusable. As a full-priced console game, standing up against feature-rich AAA titles and even free-to-play titles, LEGO Brawls just doesn't stand out in the slightest. Although a less complex brawler aimed at a younger audience might make sense, in this case it's TOO simplified, where every character behaves the same and the only strategy is to run at your foes and mash the attack button. Combine that with the lack of additional single-player content and glacial progression system, and it becomes difficult to recommend LEGO Brawls to anyone other than the most devoted LEGO aficionados.

Once the Lego charm expires, you’re left with a console game that requires a lot more of a financial investment than free-to-play titles that have significantly more content. And as such, Lego Brawls is stuck in a strange space where it can’t quite reach its intended audience.
