The LEGO Dimensions game is The LEGO Group's first foray into the growing field of “Toys to Life”, where physical toys with RFID tags can be pulled into your gaming experience by placing the toy on a special portal. The gameplay is based on the hugely successful LEGO Star Wars, Harry Potter, Indiana Jones and more, by video game developer TT. LEGO Dimensions Starter Pack I purchased the Starter Pack on Black Friday, and wanted to better understand what I was getting myself into before I started purchasing any of the Level Packs, Team Packs, or Fun Packs. At 30/25/15$ each (respectively) these little purchases will add up quickly. This is why I wanted to understand how much I would need to pay to experience the whole game. What I've concluded is that the base game is a pretty decent value , especially if you consider that LEGO bricks are worth about 0.10$ each piece. The value of the expansions seems to vary. There are four levels of investment in LEGO Dimensions: 100$ – Starter Pack Only – Just buy the Starter Pack and play through the main game and three adventure worlds. 315$ – All Levels and Adventure Worlds – By purchasing the right sets, you can unlock the entire game. You will still miss some puzzles which require a specific character. 390$ – All Levels, Adventure Worlds, and Character/Vehicle Abilities – A carefully selected set of Fun Packs will give you every in-game ability. 565$ – Everything – If you want every character, vehicle and Accessory, it’s going to cost a premium! I prepared an in-depth analysis of exactly what sets you need to buy to save the most money at: http://brickarchitect.com/legodimensions/ Don't forget that the new content comes out every two months, so there are plenty of ways to spend even more in the future!
