LEGO Marvel Super Heroes - PS4
The classic LEGO game packed with Marvel heroes for PS4 - over 100 playable characters, couch co-op, at a small price.
LEGO Marvel Super Heroes is a classic among family games: an open-world New York full of Marvel heroes, over 100 playable characters and the typical LEGO humour that makes kids and parents laugh alike. The big plus as a gift: co-op on one couch, so playing together without any hassle. It is an older title from 2013, and the graphics show it - but with a bol score of 4.7 and a price around 15 euro, this is a lot of fun for little money.

Why LEGO games make such good gifts
The LEGO games have a golden formula: famous heroes, simple controls, lots of humour and never a real 'game over'. If you die, you lose some studs and simply keep playing. That makes it accessible for young children, while collecting characters and secrets keeps older players busy too. LEGO Marvel Super Heroes is considered one of the best in the series: an open New York, its own story and a huge cast of Marvel figures.
Together on the couch: the power of co-op
The real gift argument is the couch co-op: two players on one screen, just add a second controller. Parent and child, siblings, or friends - you solve puzzles together and smash through enemies together. In a time when many games only offer online multiplayer, this is old-fashioned playing together. That makes it a gift for the whole family rather than for one person.
Who is it a good gift for?
Perfect for kids who love Marvel or LEGO, and for families with a PS4 who want to play together. Also fun as a nostalgic gift for an adult Marvel fan. Do check the console, and don't expect modern graphics: it's a game from 2013. Knowing that, you get one of the most beloved family games on the PS4 for around 15 euro.
