Product Description

From Children's Software Revue® -- "Subscribe Now!"

If your kids have the patience to complete the lengthy tutorial, they'll have lots of success and enjoyment with LEGOLAND. Starting with a plot of land, children use a stock supply of rides and exhibits to design their own virtual 3D theme park. All of these attractions are based on real theme parks, including LEGOLAND in California. Children can freely construct their own park by choosing from food kiosks, restaurants, rides, greenery and staff, or they can choose to play through the program's progressively more difficult level system. To progress through each level, all of the rides must be built, the greenery must be varied and plentiful, and the money must be flowing in. An inspector periodically checks kids' progress, letting them know, for instance, whether the shrubs and other plants are adequate, or if an appropriate number of food concessions are available relative to the park's size. Successes in the level system are rewarded with new park themes like Wild West or Castle. (These special parks can also be accessed in the "Freeplay" mode.) Once children understand what to do, the creation of each park is very doable. While kid testers felt that the tutorial was overkill, and sometimes surprisingly unhelpful, they also appreciated the challenges of new levels that came with their successes. All things considered, the program offers a creative and fun problem solving experience.

4.0 out of 5 stars LegoLand - a fun little game, March 4, 2008

I ordered this last week from Amazon. I got it today & installed it and got through the tutorials and a few levels of the game.

Everything looks and works like it did when I had it for my old Windows Me computer. I wanted to play it again and the price was fair.

It is a fun theme park game where you build a park and try to keep customers happy by adding a variety of rides, shops, places to eat, and vegatation. It recommends ages 6 to 12 but fun for older LegoLand fans as well.

For people with Windows XP/Vista:

I used Custom Install and chose everything (about 440 MB of space) for maximum compatibility but it ran fine in the normal install (220 MB).

It will not run in Windows Vista NATIVE MODE but all you have to do is right click on the icon and set it for Windows 98 compatibility mode. After that, it works fine. Windows XP/Vista has quite a few choices on programs made for older operating systems. In the case of LegoLand, I set it for "Run as Administrator" and "Windows 98/Me" compatibility. I had absolutely no problem with graphics, video, sound, timing or even game saves.

As always, it is recommended to download all Windows Updates so your computer is up to date.

This review is from: LEGOLAND (CD-ROM)

I loved this game when I was younger, and I've been dying to play it again!
It's a really fun amusement park game, and the levels are pretty interesting.


ATTENTION 64-BIT USERS!!!
For 64-bit Vista and 7 users, you cannot INSTALL the game directly onto your computer, but it will PLAY on your computer! I transfered all the info on the game CD to a USB drive, and then used the USB to install the game on my netbook, which runs XP. I then transfered the now installed game files back onto my USB drive, and then plugged it into my 64-bit computer. And it worked!! Once the game is in its installed form, make sure you set the exe file to compatibility with XP, or it will crash.

This review is from: LEGOLAND (CD-ROM)

This title will not work on computers with a 64 bit version of Vista or Windows 7. The publisher offers no support for this title, so there is nothing that can be done.
