Controlling the jumping of your Rock Raider while on foot is stupefying though not required all that often. Vehicle control is so erratic in one particular vehicle that you become dizzy from the spinning. While every vehicle controls identically whether land-based or airborne, each one is able to either traverse an area that was previously inaccessible or destroy once-thought-immovable rock masses. If you collect enough ore, the usually tucked-away LMS Explorer located in every level can be used to construct anything from an armored tanker that ejects menacing laser blasts, to a massive double-bladed carrier chopper. While using a hand drill falls just shy of buffoonery, the vehicles are by far the shining stars in the Lego Rock Raiders sky. As you finish each level, you are awarded a medal based on your performance, and you may go back to replay previous levels in attempts at a golden glory. When dealing with solid rock, you can use dynamite to blast open the way through. As you progress through the level, you find more-powerful tools that allow you to turn the medium and hard rock into rubble.
As each of the 18 linear levels begins, you start with a simple drill that will destroy the loose rock. The level design isn't exactly mystifying. Once you begin to use the radar, the loose rock appears a brighter green than the rest of the level, and any difficulty the game may have had quickly jumps on the next train to Easyville. The first few minutes playing Rock Raiders makes the game seem like it's going to be an endless search to find the few places where your imbecile drill can work. There is a two-player mode available for up to six levels, but as the instruction manual puts it, they are designed "just for fun." As one of the several Rock Raiders, it's your job to mine the rock on the planet for the energy crystals and ore or, in some cases, to rescue the other Raiders who may have pitifully found themselves in trouble. As you might expect, the indigenous creatures aren't too keen on the idea of giving up their planet's goods to plastic men with black dots for eyes. In Lego Rock Raiders, you play as one of several Lego characters instructed to mine an alien planet for precious energy crystals and ore. Somewhere in the transition from drawing board to television screen, something has gone awry. This would usually provide an easy way for a company producing video games to make some loot, but with Lego Rock Raiders, this might not be the case. Like the Erector Set and Lincoln Logs, Legos have stood the test of time as a toy that generation after generation of young bucks can enjoy. Go into any young boy's toy chest and you're likely to find some Lego pieces in there somewhere.
