Just because you are forced to stay stuck in front of your computer does not mean that you cannot have a moment of relaxation with a little healthy creative entertainment. Lego, in collaboration with Google, allows you to build an online house made from the very famous bricks to be fitted together, one on top of the other.
All Lego fans and even those who never play for lack of time can have fun, in virtual, creating an online construction on the website in HTML5 BuildwithChrome .

The site shows the map of Australia and New Zealand of Australia with the terrain made up of many Lego base plates.
You can then create your own home by pressing the Build button and save the construction by logging in with your Google account (login with the button in the upper right corner).
Since 2014 Lego brick houses can be built all over the world on the surface of each country as well as Italy.
Pressing on Build a piece of free land is chosen (you can also search for a specific place from the bar above) and you can start construction.
Using the mouse wheel you can zoom in to enlarge the surface displayed in 3D.
You can also press space together with the left mouse button to rotate.
With the left button you put the brick while with the right button you delete it.
On the left side you can choose the piece to put whose orientation and color you can set.
Extra pieces are used to make windows and doors.
There are a thousand bricks available and they are counted from the bar at the bottom left.
Although there are not many possibilities for variation, since there are only the bricks with a classic Lego shape, the construction game works so well that it is really a lot of fun, undemanding, not boring and simple to use and above all fluid and fast .
It will certainly be improved in the coming weeks, with the possibility of building all over the world and with more choice of pieces, perhaps even with the possibility of putting some little men.
In the end, after creating a house or whatever you want, you can publish the construction online and occupy that space on the Legoland map .
UPDATE 2017: While you can still explore the Lego world of BuildwithChrome, the site has stopped working in creation mode and has been replaced by the Mecabricks.com site where you can build online with Lego bricks even better and more completely.
I remember that Lego itself provides, for free, a program to create Lego buildings on the computer with virtual bricks .
