Let’s CATCH: This is a sports game in which players control “cartoony” avatars that play outdoor catch. Characters engage in topical conversation (e.g., piano lessons, astrology, UFOs, hectic schedules) while tossing the ball, and sometimes discuss dating and romance (e.g., “I know that he and I could never really be together” and “I’ve decided to never think about chasing a married man again”). In a “Bomb Catch” mini-game, players scramble to get rid of a bomb before it explodes; the character holding the bomb when it goes off is knocked to the ground.

LEGO Battles: This is a real-time strategy game (RTS) in which players can explore landscapes, build civilizations, and send “Lego” troops into battle. Presented from a bird’s eye view, battle sequences can involve small boats/pirate ships shooting cannon fire at each other; Lego knights dueling with swords; and tiny soldiers walking toward and stopping in front of pirates, skeletons, and alien-like creatures. Laser sounds, sword swipes, and alien screams are occasionally heard during combat. Some cutscenes depict slapstick behavior, such as a pirate that stumbles when his drink is replaced with a crab, and a Lego character that is referred to as a “space babe.”
