This review is from: LEGO Games 3839 Race 3000 (Toy)
Lego's range of build-it-youself games help address the problem of what you do with Lego models once you've finished building them. Some of them are very good.
Race 3000 is a car racing game for up to four players. The cars progress around the track based on the roll of a coloured die. The coloured die is modified during the game - each player has opportunities to add more of their coloured squares to it, so their car is more likely to move further. There are two tracks, with obstacles (Lego oilslicks), shortcuts and places where you can swap between the two lanes. If your turn would land you on top of an opponent's car, you overtake them by moving forward to the next available space that is not obstructed by the opponent car. The "not obstructed" bit is open to interpretation, because the cars overhang several adjacent spaces. If you move between tracks, you do it in a single move, even though it looks like there are two "squares" to cross. We found the basic set of rules to be slightly ambiguous in a couple of places - to avoid arguments, you need to be clear about your interpretation befor you start playing. Lego positively encourages you to modify the rules to suit yourself, which may help hone your childrens' creativity and negotiating skills. The squares through which the cars move are the studs on top of the Lego bricks, so can be a bit fiddly for people that need reading glasses. The box says it's suitable for ages 7+; I'd probably say it's better for 8 or 9 year olds, but perhaps some 7-year-olds would disagree!

The game is easy to assemble and is fun to play with. The rules of the game is a bit confusing but the die is original and it is cool to make up your own rules. It is also easy to store the game back in the box by splitting the track in half making it easy to put it back together afterwards too.

This review is from: LEGO Games 3839 Race 3000 (Toy)
Bought this for my 4 year old son for christmas. Him and his 7 year old sister enjoyed building it which is all part of the fun, however the game itself is very confusing. The dice is not a normal dice, there are colour tiles to add throughout the game and it confused me? Abandoned their method and played with a normal dice. Not a game for the young and certainly not one they could play on their own.
