a common enemy, Miauthra . In our journey there will bemany combats in which we will show various combos that parody the elegant names of the martial techniques, we will solve puzzles that will require construction of Legos and s

 

pecial abilities of our ninja and we will advance through platforms in parkour style, like races on the walls, tours in zip line and swing betwee

tory through the different locations of Ninjago, which are equivalent to the phases of the game, between which there are some loading screens so long that we have the feeling that they are constructing by hand the stage with authentic pieces of Lego. During th

 

e journey, we will meet the different ninja students, their sensei , Master Wu, and Garmadon himself, who will join our team, which we will control a character and we will vary according to what we need at each moment. Each of our ninjas has its

 

own weapon, which in addition to warlike use, will be the only valid one to solve some of the puzzles. At a certain moment of the game, the ninjas will discover the power of the Spinjitzu, which is the channeling of an elementary power with which they can solve other puzzles.
