Summary
Horribly misunderstood!
The Good
This game was reviled when it was released! LucasArts only meant for this game to be an amusing diversion, like Solitaire or Mine Sweeper. This game is graphically poor and gameplay involves delivering items with some simple puzzles, but that's what was intended.
This is an excellent mini-game that you can play in one sitting. This isn't a graphically strong game, but the little characters are cute. There is also cool combat and great sound and music (you can strip out the .wav files and have great sounds for your computer).
Anyway, the game always begins with Luke arriving on Dagobah and then Yoda sends him on a quest. The game is always random but full of familiar characters (Fett, Vader, Han, etc). There are a few different worlds (an ice one, forest, desert, etc). Puzzles are pretty easy, with a few challenges, and there are several amusing jokes.
The best part is that after completing certain numbers of games, Luke has better access to the Force and a stronger lightsaber.
The Bad
I didn't like the fact that people refused to accept the game as it was. LucasArts doesn't need to make every game like
Jedi Knight. And really, tell me that this isn't better than
Rebellion or
Force Commander.
The Bottom Line
A Star Wars minigame in the tradition of Mine Sweeper, Hearts, Solitaire, etc.
