It’s incredible to me that the last Lego Star Wars game came out in 2016.
This wasLego Star Wars: The Force Awakens, based on the first game in the new trilogy.
I feel a great disturbance in the Force.
These were the desert around the farm, and Mos Eisley itself.
In short, it felt like the best version of the Lego games you loved when you were younger.
Thems are some sexy bricks.
This also dings an achievement for doing a unique thing hidden in the level, each level having three.
The levels also have nooks and crannies that reward exploration with jokes or collectibles.
And there are very many more of these that I didn’t get to play around with.
Jedi have a bunch of mind trick stuff they can do, for example.
It was just fun leaping around and riding on improbably large alien beasties and finding secrets.
Some dudes had found an abandoned house but it was locked - the key must be nearby!
So I explored and found the key.
Another desert cave had a Kyber Brick inside, but it was too dark to see inside.
Then I found a torch outside!
There are lots of these little gleeful moments of discovery and delight.
It’s not like it’s the first time you’ve shot baddies in the Star Wars Lego games.
It’s just weird to be routinely headshotting Stormtroopers in a Lego game.
This game even has waist-high cover, for Pete’s sake.
Despite this, I still really enjoyed what I saw, and would play more.
But then I thought about it and realised this is probably designed for core Star Wars fans i.e.
May the Force be with you.
