Amazon.com Review

Building and creating is what made the LEGO franchise so famous. In LEGO Stunt Rally, not only can you design and create your own tracks by connecting various stunt pieces, but you can also test them out by racing on them.

This LEGO adventure takes place on Stunt Island, where Mr. X is the supreme ruler. Win enough races and you will go head-to-head with the man himself. When and if you defeat Mr. X, he will announce his retirement and Stunt Island will be yours.

LEGO Stunt Rally was made for younger gamers in mind. It's pretty easy to play, but there are plenty of extras to keep kids busy. For example, the game features close to 20 different stunt elements that gamers can collect. Also, each time you win a race you win a new car, block, or trick, which can be utilized to enhance your car's performance. The track editor is another nice touch and is one of this game's saving graces. It features ramps, power-ups, and trees, but you can also add turbo boosts and supergrip power-ups to help your car stay on the track.

On the other hand, the graphics in Stunt Rally are substandard even in Game Boy Color terms, and the gameplay is very limited. The driving portion of the game leaves a lot to be desired. You cannot turn or brake, but you can control the speed of your vehicle.

The game will interest avid LEGO-maniacs, but if you are a racing fan interested in challenging games, don't even think of plugging this title into your Game Boy Color. --Todd Mowatt

Pros:

• Perfect for younger gamers and those with a penchant for all things LEGO
• Design and test your own stunt tracks

Cons:

• No steering or braking controls
• Substandard graphics

Product Description

LEGO STUNT RALLY on Game Boy Color is a racer with a leg up on the competition! As in many racers, your goal is to get to the finish line first in order to win fame and fortune or at least a few first-place medals. However, LEGO has always been about building, and LEGO STUNT RALLY is no different. You'll have to construct each of the tracks yourself using a variety of pieces containing curves, stunt pieces, and others. There are four different track themes, each with their own pieces: you can create a city track, a desert track, a mud track, and an ice track. Once you've built the track, it's time to race! Your competitors on the track will fight tooth and nail to beat you to the finish, so you'd better make sure you use the knowledge of the track's setup to your strategic advantage. If you manage to do well enough, you may uncover some new track themes. LEGO STUNT RALLY is for one player only, and is only compatible with Game Boy Color systems.

My son is crazy about this game. He would play all day if I let him. He loves everything about it, from designing the track to making the cars to racing. He also likes the various characters in the game. It is his absolute favorite. He would recommend it highly.

1.0 out of 5 stars Lego Stunt Rally and Windows ME, February 18, 2001

This review is from: LEGO Stunt Rally (Game Cartridge)

Although you claim this game will run in Windows ME I have purchased it (in the UK) and it doesn't. Every attempt to contact Lego Media to resolve meets with silence and I still have a game that my 7 year old son got for christmas cannot run. On trawling the net I have come across others with the same problem - so if you have Windows ME avoid this game!
