Ah, LEGO games. The perfect mix of childhood nostalgia, slapstick humor, and brick-smashing chaos. But LEGO City Undercover? Oh, it’s on a whole different level. Imagine Grand Theft Auto—but with LEGO minifigs, no actual crime (except hilarious misunderstandings), and cars that handle like a bar of soap sliding down a greased-up waterslide.

Recently, I fired up LEGO City Undercover for a stream, and let me tell you—it was a wild ride. Buckle up, because this post is going to take you through the twists, turns, and spectacular crashes of my latest gaming session.


🎼 Starting the Chaos: The Life of an Undercover LEGO Cop

Our hero? Chase McCain—an undercover cop infiltrating the LEGO underworld. My mission? Continue my saved game and cause absolute havoc in the process. I probably should have paid attention to the actual detective work, but let’s be real: the best part of LEGO games is the unintentional comedy that happens when everything goes hilariously wrong.

First things first: time to hit the road in my trusty vehicle. And by “trusty,” I mean “impossible to steer.” It’s like trying to control a drunk shopping cart with a rocket engine strapped to it. Every turn? A gamble. Every straightaway? A miracle. Every chase? A disaster waiting to happen.

And boy, did it happen.


🚗 Driving Like a Maniac (Because Physics is Optional in LEGO City)

I quickly discovered that the vehicles in this game have exactly two modes:

  1. Absolute chaos.
  2. Slightly less chaos.

I attempted a high-speed chase and ended up skidding wildly into pedestrians (don’t worry, they just cheerfully hop back up like nothing happened). Then, in a bid to look professional, I “borrowed” a police car—which promptly slid off the road and landed upside down. I’m pretty sure my LEGO cop license is getting revoked after this.

One of my proudest moments? Attempting a high-speed turn and instead launching myself straight into a fountain. Chase McCain: Law enforcement officer, professional diver.


🔍 Stealth? Never Heard of It

Being undercover usually means blending in, sneaking around, and gathering intel. But let’s be honest—when I play, “undercover” means wearing a ridiculous outfit and causing as much destruction as possible. I tried to tail a suspect quietly, but the plan quickly devolved into me sprinting after them, knocking over everything in sight, and eventually slamming my car into a lamppost. Smooth.

Then, there was the legendary barbecue mission.

I needed to find a barbecue to create a distraction. Sounds simple, right? WRONG. What followed was a 15-minute escapade of me running around, asking every single NPC, "Has anyone seen a barbecue around here?" If this were real life, the police would’ve arrested me for public disturbance.

Finally, after much trial and error (and aggressive destruction of street furniture), I found a perfectly clean barbecue. Victory.


🎭 The Criminal Mastermind with 42 Parking Tickets

At one point, I had to break someone out of jail. Expecting a hardcore crime lord, I was instead greeted with a guy whose greatest offense was getting 42 parking tickets. The horror! The villainy! The absolute menace to society!

Naturally, I had to drive him to safety—cue more swerving, smashing, and near-death experiences. I managed to avoid the police long enough to deliver him to his gang boss, who, rather than questioning why his getaway car had 15 new dents, thanked me for my "driving skills."

I appreciate the vote of confidence, buddy, but I think we both know that was a disaster from start to finish.


🏆 Winning? More Like Barely Surviving

Between failing simple stealth missions, wrecking every vehicle I touched, and launching myself into fountains, you’d think I’d have given up. But nope—LEGO City Undercover is the kind of game where failure is half the fun.

By the end of the stream, Chase McCain had successfully infiltrated the LEGO underworld, gained the trust of crime bosses, and completed major missions.

Was it done gracefully? Absolutely not.

Did it involve an embarrassing amount of crashes, unnecessary destruction, and a lot of yelling about barbecues? Oh, 100% yes.


đŸ€” Final Thoughts: Why LEGO City Undercover is Pure Gold

If you haven’t played LEGO City Undercover yet, what are you waiting for? This game is ridiculous, hilarious, and endlessly entertaining.

Whether you’re driving like a lunatic, investigating "dangerous" criminals with minor infractions, or just smashing everything in sight for bricks, the game never takes itself too seriously. And neither should you.

Want to see all this chaos unfold in real-time? Come hang out with me on Bricks and Builds with Chay! Let’s crash some cars, cause some mayhem, and try (and fail) to be good at being an undercover cop.

Until next time—watch out for fountains and, for the love of LEGO, don’t let me drive. 🚔😂
