LEGO Universe officially shut down on January 31st, 2012. But a group of players are dedicated to keeping the lights still running - 14 years later.

Today’s guests: HailStorm and aronwk from Nexus Universe. Nexus Universe is a public server where you can experience LEGO Universe like it’s 2011 again. It’s extremely simple to set up - only took me a few minutes. All you’ll need is a Discord to get the game key, and you’re on your way!
Both HailStorm and Aaron warned me of what they call the “scam server”. I won’t get into specifics, but they say it’s another LEGO Universe server that will charge you money for stuff as simple as like levelling up. I can personally vouch that Nexus Universe is safe, credible, and constantly moderated, so if you want to experience LEGO Universe, go with Nexus.
If you’re a Clutch Power supporter, you get a bonus video. My buddy Joe from Jeez! joins me as we play through the opening of LEGO Universe. If you’re not sure if LEGO Universe is for you, check out that video - you’ll get the answer!
You’ll also get access to this MOC I built just for this episode! is a recreation of the Nexus Force symbol (the good guys in LEGO Universe). If you, like me, thought making a five-pointed star would be simple, then you, like me, might be struck but how not true that is.
It’s $2 / month to become a Clutch Power supporter, and you’ll get bonus content + a MOC for every episode!
