This is my first lego game, help me play it!

[Lycon]

So, what are the lego parts I can collect for? The ones that I got like 60k+ from? What are they for?
I only played for an hour yet because of work but when I got to the main island I could instantly play jurassic world instead of playing trough all 3 movies? Also in the excavation site, there where several things I couldnt do because I didnt have the right characters, is this for a new game +? Also some hints and tips and beginners advice would be awesome! thanks :D

The studs you're collecting are used to purchase unlocked red bricks, characters and vehicles. Red bricks are essentially cheats that give you invincibility, studs multipliers, fast dig, etc. They can only be unlocked in free roam.
You will have to replay each level in free play to unlock additional items like minikits and amber stones. Some items are available in story mode, but not all. You must collect amber stones, because they unlock dinosaurs that you can play with (in free play and free roam) or even customise them. You can free roam around the islands as soon as the game let you after finishing certain missions. During missions break things as much as possible as they might hide items that you need. In nutshell, have fun with it.

When in freeplay mode, can I choose wich characters I take with me? I cant play now because of my ♥♥♥♥♥♥ dead end depressing ♥♥♥♥ job :(

In Free Play you can select any character that you unlocked freely for any of the characters that you would normally have with you.

Dear Lycon:

Hello, this is Indy. Greetings from Canada!!

You can also break up things for more studs!!! If you liked Jurassic World, I would recommend the other LEGO games: The Hobbit, Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Batman. I love these games for they're so much fun!!! I play them with my Xbox 360 controller for Windows-- yes, there is such a thing.

I don't know where or what time zone you live, but I stronlty recommend you take time to introduce yourself to the wide wonderful world of LEGO games. They're on sale right now--the whole LEGO franchise.

If you need anymore help, please let me know. I'm always here.


Sincerely yours always,


Indy.

Except LEGO Hobbit remains incomplete.

There's the hub world, which is four areas (each area corresponds to each movie) that you initially travel through in story mode (you only have the characters you are supplied with at that point), and which gives you initial access to the actual levels in story mode (so you're walking through the environments of Jurassic Park or whatever to reach the points to first play the levels). The hubs contain many collectibles, such as:

• Gold bricks
  
• Red bricks (can unlock abilities like stud multiplication, brick detection and faster interaction with switches)
  
• Sick Dinos you can collect objects to heal (first seen in the second level of JP)
  
• Photo opportunities (you need a character with a camera, like Sarah Harding from TLW or Gray from JW)

Once you've completed that movie, you can travel around the corresponding area in free play mode, helpful for achieving objectives you couldn't do before.

In both the hub worlds and the game levels, there are Lego objects you can interact with (mainly destroying) to get studs (the in-game currency). Interacting with objects, like building objects, also produce studs. Studs can also be found on the ground.

Once you've completed the first level, you'll arrive at the Isla Nublar Jurassic Park hub at the helipad, where you have the option of continuing the Jurassic Park levels or taking the monorail to start the Jurassic World levels. The Lost World hub and levels become available once the JP levels are complete, and JP3 becomes available when TLW levels are completed.

The levels themselves are standard, where once you've completed the story mode (given specific characters to play the level through), you can replay in free play mode (any character you've unlocked and/or purchased and you can choose any of these to play as at any time in the level). You've got several objectives, namely

• True Survivor (collecting a specific number of studs),
  
• collecting 10 minikits (which form a dino skeleton that when complete, you can play as) and
• obtaining an amber brick (unlocks a dino you can play as, same type as the skeleton in the minikits)

You also unlock a number of characters and a couple of vehicles.

When in story mode, each level contains a minute or so of cutscenes, providing context for the level. Unless it's your first time playing the level for that save file, you can choose to skip the cut scene.
