'''"LEGO Adaptation Game"''' is a catch-all term for a loosely-connected series of [[Multi Platform]] [[Video Game|Video Games]] made by Traveller's Tales, based on combining the license for [[LEGO]] with that of another work, generally a film, as tie-ins to licenced toy lines based on the same films LEGO is producing and selling around the same time. With few exceptions, the games are action platforming games with the characters and stages all consisting of LEGO interpretations of the licensed work in question, with tongue-in-cheek, often parodical [[Cutscene|Cutscenes]] poking fun at both those works and [[Built With Lego|the fact that they are made out of LEGO bricks]].
In these games, [[Death Is a Slap on The Wrist|death is just the character falling apart]] and, if it's a [[Player Character]], reforming with just the loss of a few small round LEGO bricks referred to as studs, which are the currency in these games.
