History is littered with video games we’ll never get to play, and now we know a LegoJames Bondtitle is among them.
It has everything you’d expect to see in a Lego game, physical comedy, visual gags, and recognizable characters dressed up in Lego’s signature blocky attire. My favorite joke in the trailer is a bald villain turning around in a chair while stroking his chicken. I won’t write why that’s funny, but if you think of another name for a male chicken you’ll get it.
The trailer also has everything you’d expect to see in a James Bond game. There are car chases – one is even underwater – cool gadgets like fire-spitting wheels, and witty one-liners. It looks like Daniel Craig’s iteration of Bond thanks to the blonde hair and chiseled face. Well, as chiseled as a Lego face can be.

According toone commenter on Reddit, the trailer was “produced as a pitch for The Lego group to convince them to give the OK for a full game,” but, unfortunately, “TLG decided Bond wasn’t suitable and vetoed the project.”
The trailer has the Traveller’s Tales logo on it at the end, which is the British video game developer responsible for the originalLego Star Warsand has worked on loads of Lego games since. It also made Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex, which is the first Crash game I ever played. It would have been great to see the company’s take on Bond, as he’s a British icon.
While you can’t play the James Bond game, you should check out thebest Lego gamesof all time to ease your pain.
