Product Description: Kids today haven't changed all that much; they're still afflicted with LEGO mania. And there's no better place to treat this malady than on the Game Boy Color (this title also works on the new Game Boy Advance). LEGO Island 2, sequel to the PC- and PlayStation-exclusive title, comprises a unique blend of mystery and puzzle solving. Players should be forewarned that the game is as childish as the name and cover suggest. Adults and older kids may find the game charming but a little too simple for their tastes.
LEGO Island 2 features the return of the dastardly Brickster. Once again he's loose on the island and up to no good. You portray a pizza delivery boy who must stop him. The game takes place in LEGO world--the world of the toy sets--so you won't be doing any brick building yourself. Basically, you've got to solve puzzles, deliver items to access new areas, bump mummies and other monsters to defeat them (you can also stun them with your, ahem, pizza gun), and explore the huge game world. Fortunately, the game features a battery backup, so memorizing or writing down long codes to save your progress isn't necessary.
The game is made up of busywork; it isn't particularly challenging, though there is a bit of problem solving thrown in. It's perfect for a car trip or some other occasion when you'd like your kids seen and not heard, but there's nothing educational or redeeming here. But since when have LEGOs not been about busywork? --Andrew S. Bub
Pros:
Cute graphics
Easy-to-understand gameplay
Battery backup
Cons:
For the younger set only
Just busywork

Where to begin... The Story is not quite FF but i mean the brickster stealing pizza? What!? And instead of sending police they send pepper, the delivery boy. But at least the world is huge and interactive as can be (sarcasm) . And then they throw in some cards wich have no real purpose other than seeing the characters with better graphics. and last but not least the most arrupt ending wich made me think i was still playing the game. all in all the game took me 35 min. to beat (try to beat my record)
Rating: - Not what expected
It's an okay game, but I'd recommend it for gamers who are 10 and under. The graphics are pretty good for GBC and the gameplay doesn't have any big flaws. I really enjoyed seeing the Lego world on my gameboy. The only major thing I didn't like about the game is the ending. When I got there, I didn't even know that I was finished and it only took me an hour or less. I'd recommend buying the original LEGO Island for PC, because it is more in-depth and has lots of modes of transportation. For example, you can ride a motorcycle, a bike, an ambulance, a jetski and more. The only two flaws are that you can't walk outside the paths/roads and you don't really get to fly the chopper. You should get the LEGO Island PC version for kids 7-13 and Lego island gamboy if it's for a 6-10 year old.
Rating: - Not sure if it was worth the effort...
It is a great game, the graphics are incredible and my son really likes it, HOWEVER, it took me 3 weeks to install -- and I'm pretty good with computers! The system requirements also seem VERY high, so be sure your computer can run this game.

This game is for all ages. The graphics are pretty good. If you like Legos, you would probably like this game. You are a pizza boy. You throw pizzas at bricksterbots and other things.This game is worth the money!!
