Lego City Undercover is so far the first game which is based on a story and free world and not to present a comics or film.
Story: (spoiler free)
Man himself plays throughout the game Chase McCain, a policeman who was given the task by the Mayor to catch the criminals Rex Fury, who had escaped from prison. Meanwhile, you get to know the city as well as the secret intrigues and machinations.
Gameplay:
The gameplay is extensive and easy. One can explore the world, dozens of mini games such as basketball throw, lift weights, collect Lego bricks and of course to continue the story.
Over time, unlocks new costumes Chase McCain, who have a particular skill what other costumes have not, for example, the police costume has a grappling hook, the thief costume has a crowbar.
Here the Wii U gamepad has been applied very useful in Lego City Undercover. For the most part you can see the city map where you can also select routes. It also serves as ,, Smartphone '' to communicate with others and with the scan mode, you can make the city to other Lego people and golden Legos locate.
There is only one difficulty, and that is quite simple, apparently children are the main target audience of the game.
Graphics:
The city is completely decorated in style and Lego is lively and appealing. The makers have to show a lot of attention to detail which is very commendable.
The frame rate (FPS) is originating mainly stable, now and then you feel a short drop the frame rate (FPS drops).
What I noticed was that the native resolution of the game does not seem to be HD (1280x780), the picture is not very sharp and you could tell no antialiasing on closer inspection.
Nevertheless, it is to complain at a high level.
Sound:
Is satisfy for me, can not detect any significant deficiencies, the voices she clearly.
The German voice actors do a very good job, the voices fit perfectly to the respective figures.
On the plus side, the wide choice of game language, which is not taken for granted today.
(German, English, French, Italian, Dutch, Spanish and Portuguese)
CONCLUSION:
I can play any of the games or Lego OpenWorld games like hesitation recommend.
The story is entertaining, the range is wide because there is too much to collect and transport maps and the technology is originating mainly solid.
The only complaint here is the long loading times at the beginning of the game, but that spoils the game, in the game in any way.
