The game was released on 11 November 1998. Gameplay ''Lego Creator'' was initially conceived of as an 'Evergreen' replication of the physical toy.

Originally, it had been hoped that sheer scale of unlimited bricks might offset the loss of tactile merit, but such hope was compromised by the computers of the day.
