Yeah, often I find my daughter enjoys playing a game only to find the games need to be a proper game gets in the way. She loves the virtual doll stuff on my phone. Mario kart is another winner. But the Lego games kept trying to get her to progress which just annoyed her.

Have you tried Lego Worlds? It's just mucking about in a lego sandbox. The UI is a bit pants but that's the only real learning curve. My 8 yo daughter loves it. Like you say, Maybe girls are put off by strict objectives in games (ironic considering she loves bossing me around and is otherwise very competitive).
My 5 year old likes the Lego games, but not too flash on doing actual missions. Doesn't help that they have random bits that are actually hard to work out.
She'll happily faff about in the hub on the Lego movie game though, so I've just bought worlds. Will be testing out this week.

But if you can get past the poor camera, draw distance and pop up, there's a lot of charm. If I hadn't been couch cooping with the sprog I'd have been less forgiving, but we must have sunk close to 100 hours or more into it over the last year (it was pretty much the only game she played).My 5 year old likes the Lego games, but not too flash on doing actual missions.
