There are few Lego games that actually embrace free building or engineering. I've heard it is because Lego doesn't want a digital app to cannibalize their physical sales, which always seemed silly to me.

Nowadays there are even few LEGO physical products that actually embrace free building.

Most LEGO products are directed building toward one (or a few) models. Even the yellow boxes in the Classic theme (many different bricks).

Free building is just frightening to most customers.
