Review: LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean for the Nintendo Wii

Saturday, May 14, 2011 Chip 1 Comment

I gave this game to my wife’s 11 year old nephew to play since he was having a sleep over with one if his friends this past weekend. Both kids love LEGO’s and Pirates of the Caribbean so I knew they were going to have fun with this game.

Having also played and beat the LEGO Star Wars Series they were in for a treat.

Here is what they thought:

We had a lot of fun playing the game Pirates of the Caribbean Lego game. This game has all the favorite Pirates of the Caribbean characters and amazing scenes from all of the Disney movies.

What I liked about it was the game is built into chapters. During the first chapter, you start off as the character Will Turner. Will is in a city with Jack who is trying to hide from the authorities. As Will, the player has to capture Jack using all sorts of fun and exciting methods.

In the next chapter, you get to play as Jack and Will Turner together as they are being plundered by pirates.

Each chapter holds more difficult tasks for the player to accomplish.

This game is designed for kids who like to unlock hidden treasures and have the ability to not be disappointed if they can’t solve all of the puzzles right away.

This game is great fun, but it is definitely not for children under the age of eight; as it is a little more difficult to control and more challenging than LEGO Star Wars and LEGO Indian Jones.

After playing this game, my friend and I can’t wait to see the new Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides movie!!!

LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean: The Video Game will set sail on May 10, 2011 across Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Nintendo Wii, Nintendo DS, 3DS and MAC/PC, just days before the release of the new Walt Disney Pictures movie Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger’s Tides!
