The game was released on 11 November 1998. Gameplay ''Lego Creator'' was initially conceived of as an "evergreen" replication of the physical toy. Starting with the "Town" range, the game would expand at each release with the addition of further product themes. Functionality would also be enhanced with each content pack. Ultimately, individual ranges remained independent, and emphasis shifted to a play experience, with reduced emphasis on freeform construction. 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.
