I played three video games in college: Halo 3 with my friends, Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter with my roommate and her dad, and Trials HD by myself. I have since opened my eyes to the possibilities of other video games. And when I want to feel nostalgic, there are plenty of games that give me the feeling of playing the multiplayer shooters of my youth – but nothing but Trials itself has ever compared. (In the end, Trials Evolution set the bar even higher.) This week I read a story on Pocket Tactics: "This iPhone Lego game is perfect for fans of Ubisoft's Trials series."
That game, which is actually available for free on iOS and Android devices, is Lego Hill Climb Adventures. Released at the end of May, Lego Hill Climb Adventures is a Lego version of the classic physics-based racing game Hill Climb Adventures, another game that has been compared to Trials – but with cars. I never managed the Hill Climb Adventures, but the Lego reskin was too charming not to try. It's not Trials, but it gives me a similar thrill when I play it. I can't put it down.
