LEGO® Hill Climb Adventures+ Apple Arcade

Our Site Score

86/100

LEGO Hill Climb Adventures+ is a brilliant marriage of two iconic brands. The 'hill climb' mechanic has always been about that delicate balance between momentum and gravity, and adding LEGO physics into the mix makes every crash a hilarious explosion of bricks. It’s a game that doesn't take itself too seriously, yet offers a surprising amount of depth in its vehicle customization.

The mission-based structure is a nice departure from the endless racing of the original games. Meeting Minifigure NPCs who actually give you objectives makes the world feel inhabited rather than just a backdrop for a high score. The 'Rivals' mode also adds a competitive edge that keeps the gameplay from becoming repetitive.

Graphically, the game is bright and sharp, looking fantastic on an iPhone 15 or later. The haptic feedback when you're grinding over bricks or landing a big jump is tuned perfectly. It’s addictive, family-friendly, and consistently rewarding. Fingersoft and LEGO have a winner here.

Dinsun Review

Dinsun here. I’ve been playing Hill Climb Racing since it was just a few pixels on a screen. Adding LEGO to the mix is a smart move commercially, and I’ll admit, seeing the little plastic bricks fly off during a crash is satisfying. The physics are as reliable as ever—finicky, frustrating, but fair. It’s a game of momentum and throttle control, and that core loop is still addictive.

However, the progression is slowed down by a lot of 'LEGO fluff.' There’s too much dialogue for a game about driving a jeep over a hill, and the upgrade path feels intentionally grindy to encourage spending. It’s a good looking game, much better than the original, but it lacks the 'soul' of a pure physics racer. It’s a bit too corporate, too polished. I prefer my racers lean and mean, but kids will probably love the 'building' aspects, even if they're mostly cosmetic.
