Lego DC Super-Villains is a Lego-themed action-adventure platform video game developed by Traveller's Tales. The fourth installment in the Lego Batman series of games, it is a spin-off that focuses entirely on villains of the DC Universe; it is the first in the series to do so since the villain levels from Lego Batman: The Videogame.
While the core gameplay follows the same style as past Lego titles, including the addition of a two-player cooperative multiplayer mode, DC Super-Villains is the first title to incorporate a customized character into the story.

Played a little bit during a free trial weekend on Master Villain difficulty (aka Normal). I am not a fan of DC or the lego games but not going to turn down some free gameplay. I made my guy in all gold clothes with a gold knight helm and gold longsword. I was not pleased that I could not have both a sword and shield. My guy looked ridiculous because I put night vision goggles under the helm because why not? Not really sure how much options there are with starting powers, but I had super speed, acrobatics and tech use.
I did not explore the open world and simply when straight to missions. The last mission I did was the one on Green Lantern planet. The story was interesting enough and the dialogue was equal parts roll-my-eyes corny and genuinely hilarious. Gameplay was more obnoxious than anything else. It is mostly a series of puzzles of the "guess what the developers were thinking" variety. Good thing there are hints or I would have quickly lost interest. I hated the fixed camera angle and it was especially annoying during boss fights. There is no excuse to have a free camera in the open world and not during missions! Combat was not good and very simplistic. I died a lot, mostly due to falling because of not being to adjust the camera to a better angle, and sometimes in combat because the camera was too close to me to properly see what was going on. One boss fight bugged out due to the character becoming completely unresponsive; had to load the checkpoint.
I guess I will play the game again if it is offered for free on xbox gold, but even then it is a stretch to consider this worth playing.
