Review: With ‘Lego Bricktales’ in VR, a classic toy explores a new frontier


Bricktales came out on consoles and iOS a few months ago, but on the Meta Quest 3, it’s a much more absorbing and natural experience. The game can be played in full virtual reality or mixed reality, though the formats doesn’t change the experience. — Photos: Thunderful Publishing/TNS

In the age of video games, toys have faded in popularity as gadgets and screens become what children want. Teddy Ruxpin’s time has come and gone and the reign of Furby has passed, but Legos remain the eternal childhood toy.

Aside from their timeless quality, a reason that the iconic Danish toy has continued to grow in popularity is that the Legos Group wasn’t afraid to dabble in video games. Lego Star Wars, Lego Jurassic World and other titles brought the concept of the toy to a new generation and turned them into fans.
