5. Lego Island - Failing To Stop The Brickster

Lego Island is something of an internet meme goldmine, managing to tick those hefty boxes of nostalgia, ridiculous scenarios and good old fashioned terrible voice acting.

Your main drive in this brick-based game is actually just to explore and have a good time of it. However because you control a character called Pepper who makes chopping off your own hand because you’ve got cramp look smart AND because you live in a world where PIZZA can melt jail cell locks, a nefarious blocky bugger called The Brickster begins to cause trouble all over the place.

Now likely because I was much younger when playing this, and also because I didn’t take this threat seriously, I just continued to mess about. I mean after all, this happens on a tiny island, he’s not gonna cause that much troubl-

Well it looks like if you leave The Brickster for too long then he’ll destroy ALL the buildings on the island, and usher in a sort of nuclear apocalypse of sorts.

People run around screaming and crying while The Brickster laughs, etching itself into our collective consciousness forevermore.
