I bought this game to play with my 5 year old son (we had previously played Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga & The Adventures of Indiana Jones) & we have had a ton of fun with it. He enjoys the suits Batman & Robin wear to gain powers, as well as being Superman & Green Lantern (since they can fly). The story line is good, the graphics are on par with other Lego games, & the characters talk for the first time. We really enjoy the Lego games & this one does not disappoint.
What's great about it: Fun for most ages, easy to play even with a challenging puzzle or enemy in various levels
What's not so great: The relatively fixed camera angle causes some issues when trying to glide across gaps.
