This can be used to destroy models in Play Mode, although the player's creations will automatically rebuild when returning to Build Mode. There is also a 'Destructa Brick', a 1x2 tile with an image of dynamite superimposed on it. Examples include the hinge, propeller, and siren. In addition to the regular bricks in an assortment of colors, there are specified 'Action Bricks', which move or make noise. Instead, the product moved toward a more limited build environment, but with superior gameplay. This was dropped as the complexity of doing so was further explored.īy the time the Harry Potter theme was introduced to the game, the series had shifted far from the original premise of freeform LEGO construction.
Plans included being able to build content, which could be seamlessly dropped into separate Lego video games. Originally, it had been hoped that sheer scale of unlimited bricks might offset the loss of tactile merit, but such hope was compromised by the computers of the day. Ultimately, individual ranges remained independent, and emphasis shifted to a play experience, with reduced emphasis on freeform construction. Functionality would also be enhanced with each 'content pack'. Starting with the 'Town' range, the game would expand at each release with the addition of further product themes. Lego Creator was initially conceived of as an 'Evergreen' replication of the physical toy.
