Lego Rock Band is a rhythm game released for the Nintendo DS, developed by Harmonix Music Systems and published by Warner Bros. Games.

It is part of the Lego series; on the DS you can also try Lego Pirates of the Caribbean and Lego Friends. The series also appears on other systems with Lego Rock Raiders (PS1). Harmonix Music Systems also made Rock Band 3 for the DS.

Lego Rock Band supports up to 2 players, whether that means taking turns or going head-to-head.

Pick it if…

  • you want to race and compete
  • you have time for a quick session (under an hour, or endless arcade fun)
  • you have a friend to play against
  • you've played the DS hits and want something less obvious

Maybe skip it if…

  • you play on a TV with noticeable input lag

What playing Lego Rock Band is like

Music and rhythm games challenge your timing by asking you to hit inputs in sync with the beat.

Tip for newcomers: Modern TVs can add input lag that throws off timing; use your TV's game mode if rhythm feels off.
