Taking on a darker turn, however, Beautiful LEGO 2: Dark boasts 325 pages of LEGO creations organized into chapters such as Creepy Crawlers, Evil Attunement, Dark Towers, Indulgences, Pits of Fire, and Riot Girls. With a more specific curated theme, the ideology behind Beautiful LEGO 2: Dark is much easier to determine. Yet at the end of the day, people will simply appreciate the sculptures for what they are.
