Power Brick

From Brickipedia, the LEGO Wiki
(Redirected from Power bricks)

Power Bricks are accessories in most recent LEGO Games, along with canisters. They are used to obtain extras in most of the LEGO video games produced by Traveler's Tales, including the LEGO Batman, LEGO Indiana Jones, LEGO Harry Potter, and LEGO Star Wars games. The location of the red bricks varies. They are frequently found in the game's hub or in levels during "Free Play". More recently, the "Deadpool Bricks" in LEGO Marvel Super Heroes can only be found in bonus levels. There are also extras called Red Brick Detectors that help players find the all of the Red Bricks in a game.

A variant of the Red Power Brick, which appears in LEGO Indiana Jones, is the package. It's a mail package which must be brought to the mailbox for you to unlock the extra.

Once you have unlocked an extra, you can buy it with studs, and turn it on/off during the game. Some extras come unlocked, but these have no effect on gameplay, with the exception of Ice Rink, which makes everything slippery and makes the game harder.

In LEGO Marvel Super Heroes, Red Power Bricks are replaced with Deadpool Bricks, which appear as red Lego bricks with Deadpool's face and swords on them. They work the same way as normal Red Power Bricks.
