I Played Lego Island in 2021!

[@DrinkingMud]

Hilarious glitch you could do on this game,get on police bike and accelerate to full speed, get off it while it's moving, and it will never slow down. Head up to observation tower and you will be able to see the bike zooming around the island at 300mph permanently (and you also get to watch it run everyone over)

[@zemotika]

I’m bout to buy the game just to show that glitch lol 🤣

[@daltonironi]

@@MickyD bro there are multiple endings?

[@ertrick3693]

@@daltonironi There are two endings, a good ending when you catch the Brickster and a bad ending if you fail to catch him in time. There's also a cut bad ending which lasts longer and is even more horrifying because it really lingers on how bad the situation became with Brickster on the loose.

[@daltonironi]

@@ertrick3693 damn lego was wild back then

[@Adamantium9001]

I think I got the bad ending once and then started over and would never deliver pizza to "the jail" again because I was TERRIFIED of the Brickster. I just did the racing instead.

[@ZANTHERA]

I appreciate you adding my tutorial to the description, I really should update it as some people have had issues I'd like to try and see if I can iron out and have a definite fix for them. Also I do mention in the tutorial how to play this at the original aspect ratio, there are meant to be black bars at the sides since this was out when only fullscreen monitors were around, so right now it's very horizontally stretched to 16:9 where it's meant to be 4:3, the resolution for 4:3 at 1080 tall is 1440x1080.

[@MickyD]

Your video was very helpful for me when setting the game up. I figured I'd link it since I would get a lot of people asking how I got it running on Windows 10. Cheers for the great work!

I remember playing this and Lego island 2. I have more memories of 2. Nothing beats mashing your fingers relentlessly on the keyboard during the jousting section 😆

[@retron4740]

Holy hell what a nostalgia trip. I remember being seven years old playing this on my dad's computer from 1997 and there are distinct memories I have of the game. 1. There was a knight's minigame where unironically played it for 2 hours before realizing I'm a moron and that I was doing it wrong the entire time and after that completing its first try 2. There was a plane mini game that was so difficult that I had to call my dad and even he couldn't beat it 3. At the end of the game, the main character says some cheesy one-liner about how the pizzeria made the pizza extra spicy before throwing it in the villains face and winning the game 7/10 three points are deducted because that plane mini game was so awful it made me madder than I have ever been at any game to the point that I pierced my speakers with the mouse cord (don't ask)

[@sterredeweert9517]

I have to ask about the speaker accident now.

[@retron4740]

@@sterredeweert9517 Well first I have to preface the story by saying that these aren't the modern era speakers but instead the speakers from the early 2000s with a weird mesh cover over them (look up Harman Kardon HK19.5 to see the covers I had and am referring to) which meant that you could just break apart the mesh with any sharp object. So there's seven-year-old me who spent probably hours at this point trying to beat the plane mini game the point I got so frustrated I started biting my mouses cable cord. Believe it or not human teeth tear through shitty Communist era rubber cord covers very easily even if they are childrens teeth. So anyway as I'm chowing down on apparently the most delicious meal I've ever had as a child I ripped the cover clean off (looking back at it now it's amazing I didn't get electrocuted). I continue playing the game and I keep getting more mad but the problem is there's no more rubber to chew on. Instead my genius child brain decides that destroying the mouse what's enough but using the now exposed copper wire to slowly scraping the mesh covering my speakers off. Moments after I calmed down I realized how much of a fuck up I just committed, considering my dad now had a mouse with a piece of copper wire exposed and one speaker that works way worse than before. Safe to say I wasn't allowed near any family computers for years after that (oh yeah and the ass whooping I probably got lol). From that point any hissy-fits that I had during a game were only a fraction of the og Lego Island days.

[@f3ryx]

That’s Lego Island 2, the first game doesn’t have a Plane mini game or a knight minigame.

[@ertrick3693]

The first game didn't have those minigames, but what it did have was a trauma-inducing bad ending where the game goes through the city and shows you how awful everything is because you failed to catch the Brickster

[@MrFunnyHandsInYourPants]

@@f3ryx hmmm i remember a plane minigame but it was building a copter and then chasing the brickster. I have no idea about knights so it could be LI2 he is talking about

Bit surprising how many people played this as a kid. Fun fact: while not considered street legal, skateboards are considered vehicles in the US insofar as it's possible to get a DUI on one.

[@DJDerpyify]

11:11 That shocked me. All my years, I never knew the pizza can disappear if you go afk (or get lost lol.)

[@warthogger14]

Oh oh my god its happening. Lego Island, Racers, and Rock Raiders are my childhood. If I can make an old game suggestion, Lego Rock Raiders (PC, not the awful Playstation one it's completely different) is my favorite of the old Lego games. Just something about that grid exploration mixed with unit control and building is just *chef kiss*. Even if you don't do a video I still say it's something to go through. I wish it could get a new game or a way to make custom maps.

[@vaelegoro7782]

[@dobredzien313]

Jesus. I had this shit as a kid on a pirated CD but was never able to leave the starting room. Dunno if it was due to my dumbiness or some bug. But I was thinking that behind the walls there is a real LEGO city full of life and stuff. I was returning back over and over again, desperately clicking all the pixels in this fucking room. Was very upset and thought that I am losing lots of fun. I fantasised about all the miracles that are hidden for me and was even somewhat angry. Who would have known that it was just this.

OH PLEASE DO A PART TWO. There are quests at each building, and I remember them all being pretty bonkers. From my memory: - You can do the race if you click on the FLAG at the track (it's fuckin' wild you should definitely do it) - A boat race at the beach - Click on the hat at the police station and Pepper becomes the law - At the hospital you can be a Lego EMT (you see some SHIT) - You can use the elevator in the Lego Center Finally, to play the story, build the helicopter at the police station and deliver a pizza as Pepper...............................................................
