Macworld UK has posted a new review of Feral Interactive's LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes. Developed by TT Games and published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment for consoles, handhelds and Windows PC, LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes "takes the much-loved brick-based action of LEGO games to the next level with an intricate open-world structure and sparkling dialogue."

The Lego series of games has been very successful, so the developers haven’t tried to change their winning formula. Most of the time you’ll be playing as either Batman or Robin, as the dynamic duo take on the combined forces of The Joker and Lex Luthor. The action is simple but enjoyable, mostly consisting of running, jumping and constantly hitting the ‘action’ button in order to thump the hordes of hired henchman that come swarming onto each level.

Fortunately, the level design is varied and entertaining, with a number of puzzles thrown in to make you stop and think from time to time. This sequel also brings along a few of Batman’s super-pals from the Justice League, including Superman, Green Lantern, and Wonder Woman. Much of the fun lies in switching from character to character and using their different powers to solve problems and escape from tight spots.
