Lately I’ve been getting into board games, card games, etc. And it got me thinking. LEGO would be a great medium for games.
I’m not talking about regular games that just happen to use LEGO as pieces… There’s Brikwars but I don’t think that’s really LEGO-specific enough. And there are various LEGO-produced games, such as chess and such, which are neat but not really innovative at all.
No, I’m thinking about a game where you have to build some structure out of LEGO while your opponent tries to stop you while building their own. I remember once I came across rules for such a game but don’t know what I did with it.
Does anyone know of any such games? If not, how about creating one?[tags]lego,games,boardgames,strategy[/tags]

that’s about it =T unfortunatly.
Thanks for the link! That looks interesting. It makes me think it would be interesting to try mixing LEGO parts in the game of RoboRally.
Here’s another link for Mechaton. I saw a copy of the book at my Friendly Local Game Store, as well, but I haven’t the Lego collection any longer to pursue the game myself. I’ve heard great things about it, though.
Thanks for the comment Brian but where’s the link?
