Though definitely not as cute as LittleBigPlanet, Microsoft‘s new Xbox Live “creative playground” game Kodu promises to have its own charms. Microsoft previewed Kodu at the ongoing CES, even pulling a 12-year-old girl to the stage to demonstrate how easy the game is to play. It’s pretty cool, like a create-your-own Lego world.

The game, formerly known as Boku, basically allows you to build your own world, or even create your own game. It has 200 different game-creation building blocks, but the PR promises it to be a simple pick-up-and-play game for anyone from ages 7 to 70.

It looks fun, though I’m not entirely sure just how much fun it’ll be. If all you do is create worlds and run around, I’ll stick to SimCity.
