Review The Official Lego Creator Activity Book (Software Strategy Guide) / BRADY GAMES:BradyGames' LEGO Creator Activity Book takes the child from using their first brick all the way through creating a LEGO world Feature a complete exploration of the LEGO Creator software Step-by-step instruction on how to add sound and movement to each LEGO creation. Easy to use instructions for hours of fun. Original blueprints and designs included. Tie-ins to other complimentary LEGO products OK, so this isn't your typical computer game, and it certainly isn't the sort of software you'd expect to have its own "strategy guide. " But be that as it may, Lego Creator is a pretty slick title that offers kids (and adults, we have to admit) the chance to play with a virtual Lego set right on the computer monitor. Think of it: you can build anything your little heart desires with over 300 computerized Lego bricks and dozens of vehicles and buildings. BradyGames' guide to Lego Creator offers 24 projects that you can build with the software, along with a gallery of creations sent in by some die-hard Lego fans the world over. The book also offers some tips for using your computer-generated designs as blueprints for building projects out of your real-life Lego bricks. Essentially, this little book can help you and your kids get the most out of a pretty cool piece of software (and it will even show how to build a Lego whale). -Michael Ryan.
