Blockland is a sandbox video game where players can either build or play using Lego-like building blocks. The game was developed by Eric "Badspot" Hartman, using the Torque Game Engine, and was originally released as freeware on November 15, 2004. The game went retail on February 24, 2007. Blockland was also put on Steam Greenlight, which was then released on that platform on December 16, 2013. Despite its resemblance, it has no affiliation with the Lego brand, although the company had been in the talks with Hartman about purchasing the game long ago.
