LEGO Star Wars is a video game series based on the Star Wars universe.
Each part of it describes three episodes of one of the trilogies: the first is a prequel, the second is the original trilogy, the third is a sequel. Despite the fact that the game was positioned as a project for children, it is more in demand among the older generation of fans of the series.
LEGO Star Wars is the most popular interpretive game of the George Lucas MCU. It’s been almost 15 years since the first Plastic Jedi Knight Adventures came out, and the hype around the LEGO line of games continues to grow.
LEGO Star Wars: The Video game Part 1
The first game in the Telltale series follows the events of the prequel trilogy. Knight Obi-Wan Canobi travels to the planet Naboo and stumbles upon a child named Anaken Skywalker, who holds a great Force. The Jedi becomes a mentor to a young talent and tries to grow a real defender of the Order from Anakin.
The intervention of the dark Sith Lord Darth Sidious sets off a chain of events in which Skywalker betrays the Jedi and destroys all Padawans. The student and former mentor meet in the final duel, after which Anaken finds a new self in the guise of Darth Vader.
LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy
The continuation of the plastic Star Wars saga tells the story of Luke Skywalker – the last of the Jedi. Here, Obi-Wan’s new Padawan learns the Force and joins the rebel army to free the galaxy from the oppression of the Empire, led by the Sith Palpatine.
In the course of the story, Luke meets such iconic characters as Han Solo, his faithful friend Chewbaku, meets the droids C3PO and R2D2, is trained by Master Yoda, and also learns that his father is actually the traitor Darth Vader.
LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens
In The Force Awakens, we learn the story of the confrontation between the Republic and the rebels forty years after the events of the original trilogy.
The main characters of the sequel are the Jedi girl Rey, the former stormtrooper Finn and the droid BB-8. In Episode 7, the old characters face a new threat in the Sith Lord Snoke and meet Han Solo’s son Kylo Ren.
Gameplay
The entire gameplay of the LEGO Star Wars game is based on a repetition of the events of the films. Toy people in their characteristic comedic manner move smoothly within the framework of the plot, generously diluted with humor and mini-games. Each episode of the MCU is divided into four levels. The main task of the players is to collect “cufflinks”, which are the local currency.
At the end of the location, you can buy new game characters or special bonuses for the cufflinks you have obtained. All characters are unique in their own way and have some kind of atypical ability, like a double jump or the ability to crawl through narrow holes. Since the game contains a puzzle element, many people ask “how to complete LEGO Star Wars”. The answer is simple: just follow the storyline and watch the actions of the characters. Often, most of the clues are hidden in cut-scenes and cartoon inserts.
At each location you will find many caches, which can only be accessed when playing as a certain character. A distinctive feature of the line is the ability to replay in “free mode”. It allows you to complete the passage of LEGO Star Wars at 100%.
The visual style of the series is close to cartoon. Bright colorful levels made of LEGO parts create the atmosphere of a real fantasy adventure, and the entourage of the Star Wars universe only adds to its special charm. The game is distributed by publisher Warner Bros. Interacrive Entertainment at full-price price tag.
