A Parent’s Guide to LEGO Voyagers

LEGO Voyagers At A Glance

• LEGO Voyagers is rated E for Everyone
• LEGO Voyagers is a 2-player co-op puzzle adventure game featuring 3D platforming that is rated E for Everyone.

As an adult LEGO enthusiast, I often approach new builds as tasks to be completed, according to orderly instructions with a clear goal in mind. What surprised me most about LEGO Voyagers was the sense of wonder and discovery through play that used to live at the forefront of my earliest LEGO days.

Two players are required to work together, each taking control of either the red brick or the blue brick. Together they explore fully LEGO environments and solve puzzles to progress. Learning new building mechanics and progressing through the levels using teamwork adds a rewarding element of cooperation to the adventure.

Sprinkled throughout are opportunities for players to take a moment to slow down and play with no particular objective, inspiring genuine awe and a shared appreciation for the world around us – both brick and real.

So, what else should parents know about playing LEGO Voyagers?

Is LEGO Voyagers Appropriate for Kids?

LEGO Voyagers is rated E for Everyone with no Content Descriptors and no Interactive Elements. There is no in-game communication other than the “squeaks” and “chirps” of the LEGO brick characters.

While this game is approachable for players of any age, some younger players may find the lack of instructions or in-game direction frustrating when attempting to solve the in-world puzzles.

Where Can I Play LEGO Voyagers, and How Much Does It Cost?

LEGO Voyagers is available on the Nintendo Switch and Switch 2, PC (via either the Steam or Epic Game Store), PlayStation 4 and 5, as well as Xbox Series X|S. It’s typically listed at $24.99 across most platforms.

In addition to couch co-op, game owners are given a free Friend’s Pass that allows a friend to join their session without purchasing a second copy of the game (cross-platform play is supported via connected Epic accounts). An online subscription may be required depending on the platform.

What is LEGO Voyagers About?

In LEGO Voyagers players will hop, slide, and build through a world made entirely of LEGO bricks, unraveling “a poetic, nonverbal narrative” that is best left to discover as a team.

How Does LEGO Voyagers Play?

Each level presents a path of environmental obstacles that encourage players to use their LEGO building skills for navigation and cooperative puzzle-solving. Often, there are sections of the game that require each brick to perform one action while the other has a separate task, requiring seamless coordination between both. At times, your bricks will return to their home base to implement their newly learned mechanics, and atmospheric cutscenes progress the abstract story along.

Building an Appropriate Video Game Environment

LEGO Voyagers takes the magic of imaginative play from the world of colorful bricks (that most parents are used to dodging on the floor) into the world of video games. The nature of 2-player co-op design offers a great opportunity to collaborate on real-time puzzle-solving and coordination, whether with a parent and child or between two siblings or friends.

Just like the bricks, plates, and nubs that make up the landscapes of LEGO Voyagers, there are tools, tips, and resources to help ensure your family’s gaming experience is built just right.

This, of course, can start with checking the ESRB ratings. Sometimes it’ll be all you need to get a good idea of what’s in a game. Other times it’s a good jumping-off point for additional research from previews, reviews, gameplay videos, and more.

From there, ESRB’s Family Gaming Guide can help you discover age-appropriate games, establish household rules, and get some tips to help you make sure your kids’ video game experiences are fun and appropriate.

When you’re ready to customize your setup, ParentalTools.org offers simple, step-by-step guides for managing which games your kids can play, when and for how long, with whom they can chat online while playing setting screen time limits, and whether they can spend money on new games or in-game purchases. Think of it as a LEGO builder guide for digital parenting, helping you put the right pieces in place so everyone can play with peace of mind.
