WiiU-exclusive LEGO open-world TPS, one of the franchise's best games. Sharp humor, savory film references, dense and lively city. Long and generous. GamePad is well used. A must for families and LEGO game fans.

LEGO City Undercover (Wii U) price, value & rarity
Is LEGO City Undercover still worth playing in 2026?
An open world adventure from Traveller's Tales, LEGO City Undercover casts you as cop Chase McCain in a fully explorable LEGO city, a vast nod to open world games but without violence. The omnipresent humour, the freedom of exploration and the hundreds of bricks to collect make it one of the series' peaks, originally Wii U exclusive and using the GamePad as a scanner. The sometimes sluggish pace and the loading times weigh it down. An excellent adventure game for families and fans of joyful sandboxes.
