New LEGO Ninjago Game for iOS Devices

[Hapori Tohu]

A new LEGO Ninjago game was released for iOS mobile devices last week: LEGO Ninjago - The Final Battle. From the description, players can choose from five playable characters--Lloyd, Jay, Cole, Zane, or Kai--and battle enemies in a sidescrolling platformer-style adventure.

YES IT'S NOT A SPINJITZU GAME. I was getting tired of those. This one actually looks fun, and I'll probably download it.

[FrozenFlash]

Ugh. It doesn't auto save in anyway. That pretty much kills the point of the game. I'll wait for the update that allows it to auto save and then I'll try it out again.

[Canis Lycaon]

Hm... This looks pretty fun. Just wonder if it will work with my device.

Oh my gosh LEGO please start releasing mobile games for all major systems. You have like 50 iOS games and 3 Android games. This is ridiculous.

fun enough game, but whats with the lack of a way to save? Oh well, at least they are giving us some content for ninjago. this year, it seems like they have been so bent on shoving Chima down our throats, they've had no time for Ninjago.

WoooooFully upgraded and up to the Caverns.Stops for the night...

It's more a matter of them not knowing in advance that Ninjago would be continuing after 2013 so they didn't have time to prepare for a big marketing push. With that said, I'm quite disappointed that the Ninjago site hasn't updated with a 2013-inspired interface. Even the Toys 'R' Us Hong Kong site updated before the official Ninjago site! (though to be fair, some of their download links just redirect to the main page.)But on that note, Chima IS this year's "big bang" theme, just as Friends was last year, Ninjago was in 2011, and Atlantis was in 2010. It goes without saying that it'd get a big marketing push; it's nothing out of the ordinary for TLG.The save issue has apparently been patched, according to the description for the latest app update. A good thing too, because besides the lack of spinjitzu (that's the one major component missing from my ideal Ninjago beat-'em-up right there) the save issue was the only thing keeping me from fully enjoying the game.

A larger demographic, IMO. iOS is good for families with small children.

I got this game for my IPhone 4. It's really cool. What I can't figure out is what mean by "It won't autosave."

I won't download the game until they implement autosave.

 

Then again, maybe I will. Throwback to the games of old, where if you closed your console you lost everything. At least here if you simply press the Home button, the game is "saved".

It recently had an update that supposedly fixed the problem where it didn't autosave. I haven't used it since then to verify that it works now, though. In any case, since it's free, you have little to lose by trying it out yourself.
