About this game

Chase McCain is on the trail of escaped criminal Rex Fury in a city built from LEGO bricks. You investigate as an undercover officer, changing occupational disguises to use their different equipment and abilities. Driving vehicles provides another way to move around the open city as you pursue the case. Beyond the investigation, the districts contain collectibles and activities such as fishing, sports and photography. Movie references and LEGO-style comedy frame the police adventure. On Switch, two people can play together offline using split-screen, with a compatible controller required for each player. The city therefore supports both following Chase's investigation and taking time to explore its other activities.

7.4 / 10Nintendo Switch

A good design fit for explorers who like a comic police story and practical reasons to change disguises.

Different disguise equipment can make observing the surroundings and choosing a role part of the investigation. Collectibles, driving and city activities offer reasons to wander when following the case is not the immediate priority.

Strengths

  • Disguises have different abilities, giving costume changes a practical role for players who enjoy matching tools to situations.
  • Offline split-screen makes the city an option for two people who want to explore in the same room.

Who it is for: Players who enjoy comic adventures, collecting and roaming a city, including pairs looking for offline cooperative play.

Play notes: Cooperative play is offline split-screen for two players and requires a compatible controller for each person.

The investigation and optional city activities provide different directions to pursue, which may suit players who like interrupting a story with exploration.

Disguise-specific abilities should appeal to players who enjoy deciding which role or tool fits the situation rather than treating costumes as decoration.

Brick-built surroundings and movie-reference comedy may work especially well for players who want a playful take on an undercover police adventure.

Offline split-screen provides a clearly defined same-room setup, but its usefulness depends on having a compatible controller for both players.
