Product Description
Manufacturer's Description
Prove you are the bravest knight of all by being the first one to summon the dragon from the top of the volcano. Avoid the lava and block your opponents as you climb to victory. With the LEGO Dice no two games of Lava Dragon are ever the same. For 2 to 4 players.How to Play LEGO Games
Build: the basic game layout using the included building instructions. Play: start by building up the dice by adding your coloured pieces to the dice (starting by placing them next to the lava tiles). Each time the dice is rolled another piece is added until the dice is full. Each time the dice is rolled thereafter, each player with a tile showing makes a move up the mountain. Watch out though, if your opponent throws a lava tile they can move one of the lava bricks to block your path. The first one to the top of the mountain and throws a lava tile, wins and can claim the dragon. Change: the rules e.g. if you throw the lava tile then you can use the lava stick to push your opponent off the mountain and they will need to start from the bottom again.

My eight year old loves lego knights so this game jumped out at me when I saw it. The pieces are quite small, but I wasn't disappointed since that is what the pictures indicated. Just be careful with the pieces. They are very small and some are unique so even being careful we have had to search after games to find them all. Also since it is small it looks more like a mini-game, but once you play you see there is more than first meets the eye.
My wife and I have played it a couple of times with my 8 and 4 year old. The game takes 10 to 15+ minutes, which is a nice amount of time for game or two, because it keeps the attention of even young ones, but is interesting enough for older ones. (Much better than your average mindless children's games like "Candyland" or "Chutes and Ladders."
The rules are simple with alternative rules. (Players are also encouraged to invent their own rules.) The game involves some problem solving / decision making, which is good. Even my younger one is catching onto the strategy, however, he does get very upset when others decide to block him or worse, which this game encourages. As far as value, like most legos you pay a premium for what you get, but the quality is good.

This game is a firm favourite with our 5 year son (and his parents) despite the distractions of the Playstation. The idea of changing the rules or adding your own Lego pieces to change the game is great and gives great variety and longevity to the game

Me and my daughter own all of the lego games currently. This one isn't the best of the bunch but good wholesome fun never the same. Of the lego games that equal it in size (the lego games come in 4 different sizes, this one being second to smallest) I would rather recommend Frog Rush, Ramse's Return or Pirate Plank. Frog Rush is fairly simple to begin with but teaches young ones tactical thinking. Ramse's Return has a more original gameplay and the last one (Pirate Plank) I would recommend if you have players 3-4 of all ages to play together, lots of payback and such in that game that can get amusing. Lava Dragon didn't introduce any original gameplay compared to all the other lego games. It's a pretty straight forward race to the top with an occasional way to block your opponent.

Limited Fun Value
This lego was received well, but not played with much. Limited fun, as it is what it is.

Not much fun and very small
Disappointing. My son loves lego and I thought this was going to be a sure winner but no, it is very small and fiddly and is just not much fun, played it once.
