Lego shuts down Bionicle fan game 8 years into development, and the team thinks it knows why: "Our project was too easy to mistake for an official product"

A bunch of fan-made bionicles standing in a forest.

The fan-made Bionicle: Masks of Power game has to stop development because the Lego Group asked the volunteer devs of Team Kanohi to cease their work on the project.

In a video posted to YouTube, project lead Jordan Willis says, "For the last eight years, we've been hard at work building the Bionicle game of our dreams. Through it all, we've endeavored to communicate openly with the Lego Group following their fairplay guidelines for fan projects in good faith."
