The sound effects for the vehicles are realistic that feature tires screeching and helicopters humming. The sound for the game features brass-backed music, vehicle sound effects, and a gibberish language for the Lego characters. Like the popular Lego console games, the block men and women have comical facial expressions that regularly change. Character models look sharp and not blocky (ha!) or pixelated. The graphics for Lego City are the game's strongest points. Unfortunately, the controls in Lego City My City get in the way of enjoying the game. Overall, about half of the games have clumsy controls which also include driving scenarios where you must tilt your phone to control your vehicle. Others are very difficult and not particularly responsive, like the cops and robbers game type which requires you to use an on screen joystick and tap a handcuff button at the correct time to catch the criminal. Some of the controls are far too simplistic, such as the racing game which only requires you to press your finger on the screen. Running, driving, and flying!īefore each game, a small picture located at the bottom of the screen indicates the controls. Unfortunately the game has a considerable amount of glitches: on two different levels my character or vehicle fell out of the map and the round needed to be quit. Stuff like that doesn't take away from the gaming experience itself, but it certainly detracts from replay value. No where does it say the number of coins that are needed to unlock the levels or even if that's what the coins go towards. For example, I assume that the gold coins unlock higher difficulty settings, but the game doesn't make it explicitly clear. Throughout these levels you collect gold coins but their purpose isn't clearly explained which is apart of a larger issue: the game is lacking clear instructions regarding game goals.
