LEGO Legends of Chima doesn’t just mean a TV series and LEGO sets, but there are also three fun games available. Chima Online is an MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game) that is currently in open beta for the USA and Canada on LEGO’s website, Laval’s Journey is a sandbox-style action-adventure video-game released on Nintendo DS, Nintendo 3DS and PlayStation Vita, and the Speedorz Game is a racing game available on LEGO’s website and on iOS and Android devices. You can read about all three games and play Chima Online (if you are in the USA and Canada) and the Speedorz Game on LEGO’s website here: LEGO Legends of Chima Games. This review is going to be about the Speedorz Game only, especially because it just had an update with a new cup added. 🙂
If you never played the Speedorz Game before, here is the official description to give you an idea on what it’s about: Customize your animal minifigure, hop on a Speedor, and race through the world of Chima! Battle through the Falling Jungle, the Rhino Canyon and the Swamps against the best Speedor riders in Chima. Win races to face new challenges and unlock more difficult routes. Face off against Laval and Cragger as well as other famous Chima characters. Unleash the power of CHI to boost your Speedor. Reach furious speeds and avoid obstacles to post the fastest times. Unlock new items to customize your character and collect studs to buy new Speedorz. Three cups available now with more coming soon!
First, let’s look at the character creation and Speedorz shop. The character creation part of the game is my favorite (apart from racing); you can unlock the items the person you raced by getting certain times and stars. You can even mix and match character pieces, like have a fox head, Super Cragger’s body, and Gorzan’s legs. The Speedorz shop is like the cantina in LEGO Star Wars II (if you remember it); you collect studs in-game and spent them on the Speedor you want. Some Speedorz have different speed and handling skills; for example Super Laval’s Speedor has better speed and handling than Crawley’s. Some Speedorz cost a lot of studs and some just a few, so it is up to you to decide which one you want.
Now lets talk about the cups in the Speedorz Game. The first cup is the Tribal Cup with six different races. You race against Warrior, Leonidas, Crawley, Eglor, Cragger and Laval. These levels are easier than the others as the characters don’t have the best Speedorz, but neither do you – it can be hard if you have the starter Speedor.
The second Speedorz Game cup is the Royal Cup. It t is just a bit harder than the first, and also has six races. You race against the leaders of the tribes; Windra, Rawsom, Worris, Eris, Crominus (even though he supposed to be dead) and Lagravis. Although this game is harder, with a better Speedor you will zoom through it in no time, like you are actually on the Speedor yourself! Especially if you have Laval’s Speedor!
The latest and hardest cup is the Super Cup, also with six races. These are quite hard if you aren’t on a fast Speedor. I think you shouldn’t spend on these character’s Speedorz but save up for Super Laval’s, but it is your choice and I’m not stopping you. If you have a croc or lion body you could give your character a CHI-harness buy using Cragger’s or Laval’s body.
Below is a video walk-through of the various levels and game-features of the Speedorz Game. Please note that sometimes it looks like the video is buffering, but it is actually the game in the video that takes a bit of time to load. So no worries, just keep watching!
The Speedorz Game is my second favorite of the 2013 games for mobile devices (The Yoda Chronicles game being first). And it is awesome that you can also buy most of the Speedorz and characters at the Online LEGO Shop, and some of them are even on sale! 🙄
So what do you think? Have you played the Speedorz Game before? How do you like it? Do you have some tips and tricks for the game? Feel free to share in the comment section below! Also, I’m a TFOL (Teen-Fan-of-LEGO) and this is my third article here at theBrickBlogger. You can read my previous posts here: LEGO Galaxy Squad Eradicator Mech Review, LEGO Star Wars AT-TE Review. Thanks for reading! 😉

i wondered wich pics u would use. and that is my character and my levels 3-stared. i was gonna to my contributors page but yoda chronicles has just updated so ill do that first
Sounds good! There is no rush with the Contributor’s Page. Just whenever you want to add it. In fact we do have contributors who never set up one. But it is always nice because people can find all your posts in one place and also talk with you a bit more private even about non-LEGO stuff.
I feel the need to complement this post with sone tips…(I’ve won all the cups on iPad.)
1. Beating Laval in the tribal cup using your basic Speedor is nigh impossible. At least get yourself Warrior’s Speedor.
2. Kind of obvious, but try not to hit too many stuff, and maximise each Chi pull; just because you’re lagging behind, it doesn’t mean you should panic and pull all your Chi like there’s no tomorrow.
3.Cragger’s Speedor works for me for the Royal cup. I think with Cragger’s or Laval’s Speedor, Lagravis is a breeze compared to Laval.
4.I used Laval’s Speedor for the Super Cup, which worked fine, until Super Laval; it took me three tries to get all his parts.
5. MOST IMPORTANT OF ALL, seriously, don’t skip this part, there are achievements in the game that will give you codes for the chi vault of you well, “achieve” them. Think of it as an added initiative. It’s a really good way to get Chi points if you get all the achievements-over 1000 points.
While we’re talking about Chi Points, here’s another place to find some codes: Go online to the Chima website and view any Constraction Figures’ building instruction. At the end of it, there’s a code worth 500 points EACH. Each instruction have a code, so that will net you a whopping 3000 points! Who needs to look for floating Chi with that kind of amount?
thanks for these various tips, very helpful. I have one question because I’m stuck in part of the game. I have the Tribal and Royal Cups (3 starts for all of the races), but the Super Cup is still locked. Is there something extra that I need to do to unlock this cup? I feel like I’ve tried everything, but I must be missing something.
thank you!
I played this game a little bit it was pretty fun. however the new Chima Online Beta is way better ! has anyone else tried it yet?
so iv heard. i cant play it as canada and america only
Sean, yeah the Chima Online game is fun, but it is only available in the USA and Canada at this point. Fikko has a post coming up about it. I should be able to post it before the weekend. 😉
Your third post congratulations 😀
I’ve only played it a couple of times when it first came out and aced the first cup (only that was available then) but I may attempt the new ones if I get it on my IPAD.
And admin I’ve received my reply from LEGO about the requirements to become a creator do you want me to do a post?
Chi-bacca, yeah, sure! That should be an interesting post! 😀
Written and sent 😀
Thank you, Sir! 🙂
I just have to say, Chima Online is NOT an MMORPG but a dissapointing kids game.
Lorca, Chima is a LEGO theme for kids. Little kids. So is the game. Next time we will refer to it as an MMORPG for kids. Although nobody will stop an older kid or adult to play, it is geared towards children. So it is normal for a teen or adult to not be completely fulfilled by it. I personally like it, and I’m an adult. Also, it is still in beta, so it is expected that some features are not yet fully developed. 😉
Good point, but there is no actual roleplay involved, hence the RPG in MMORPG.
Lorca, Chima Online is listed as an MMORPG on several news sites, gaming sites, as well as on Wipedia. It may not be as advanced as in teen and adult oriented games, but you can certainly develop your character and communicate with your friends and foes – all through a fairly complex storyline. Again, Chima is for kids, but as far as what I have seen in the Beta version it meets the criteria for an RPG. 😉
You have too admit. Speedors are cooler than spinners. it’s hard to say but true. 😉
I agree… 😉 though I feel like I’m betraying ninjago
THAT IS VERY, VERY TRUE!!!! :O
Off topic alert. 😀
Kbomb26 if your reading this the brick show has featured a LEGO fish tank with studs in and on it so you can place your LEGO models without them floating 🙂 the link is here: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=d3QE3ygdNHg
Yeah, I was thinking of that too. Greg actually contacted me yesterday (the guy who created Fishplace), and will write up a post for him next week. It is funny how things like that fall together. 🙂
The pc version doesn’t save! )= But the game is great
I’m playing on the Kindle Fire, and I even though I’ve beaten the Tribal and Royal Cups, I cant unlock the Super Cup. CAN ANYONE HELP?!?
Dallior, I don’t play the game, but I will ask some of my friends who do. Hopefully someone can help you. Hang in there! 😉
Hi,
Can someone please post a link to the game “lego chima speedorz” with the super cup?
Hm… not sure if the game is still around… maybe someone else can help with this? 😕
It is still out there. I have only found a program the lets me do up to the royal cup. I can’t find any program that lets me do the super cup online.
Oh, I see… is there a forum for Chima fans? Maybe try there? I’m sorry, I haven’t paid attention to Chima for quite some time now, so I won’t be able to help. But wishing you the best! 🙂
