Early Access Review
Legoworlds is what you would you get if you combine minecraft with lego. In a nut shell theyre two games which let you interact with the world and place and destroy blocks.

Outlining some differences:
-minecraft has far better controls which are intuitive, consistent and work better. Legoworlds controls are frustrating to us, buggy and seem geared for controller users.
-the game world in minecraft is far more massive. Minecraft has no hard limitation on how far you can move your character in the x and y planes. When you reach the edge in minecraft it will generate more map for you. Legoworlds worlds have a fixed size and you can get to the edge of the map fairly easily. However minecraft blocks are all the same size while legoworlds have many different sizes both longer and thicker and many much thinner.
-legoworlds can import lego sets made in lego designer so long as the blocks used exist in legoworlds. Legoworlds can place prebuilts in an instant. Minecraft requires mods to do the same.
-legoworlds has props you can interact with and controllable vehicles like cars, helicopters, boats, road laying, tunnel boring and terrain levelling vehicles. Minecraft has redstone, wire, switches etc to build intricate machines.
-minecraft has a end game. Legoworlds you build stuff and explore.
-minecraft has crafting and farming mechanics.
-minecraft has monsters which spawn in the dark. Hostile Legoworld npcs only attack if you walk right up to them.
If you take out the poor user controls (the developers say they are working on it), the bugs (big patch coming) and lack of content (not all basic lego blocks are present but the developers have said free and paid dlc are on the way) lego worlds is a decent lego building game that rivals lego dimensions.

Legoworlds comes out of early access in late feb.

Minecraft's controls are far from "intuitive". They're pretty much the standard controls for any first person PC game.
