As is standard with the Lego games, many characters have unique abilities which are used to solve puzzles or access specific areas. You can play as dozens of different characters from this movie and other Star Wars films, but for the bulk of your first run through of the game's story mode, you'll be in charge of key characters from The Force Awakens such as Rey, Finn, Han Solo, Chewbacca, Poe Dameron, and BB-8.īefitting a title aimed at young children, character controls are simple, and with unlimited lives and immediate respawns, there's no real penalty for death. Lego Star Wars: The Force Awakens follows the plot of the movie closely, allowing you to play through many memorable sections from the film like the desert planet of Jakku, the lush forests of Takodana, the ground (and the skies) of Starkiller Base, and more. It's also goofy enough for adult fans of Star Wars to get a few giggles out of. This game isn't a mold-breaker in the same way the superior Lego Dimensions was, but it delivers on its core promise of being an engaging, fun, and charming title that's imminently suitable for families. No surprises doesn't necessarily mean no fun, however. It's gameplay, puzzles, and basic structure are all well worn, and even some of that trademark goofy Lego humor is starting to feel a little predictable. As the newest entry in the long-running Lego series, there's more than a touch of the familiar about this game.
Much the same can be said about Lego Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
Characters, locations, and story beats echoed those of the very first Star Wars film, with even the movie's creators acknowledging that there were many (deliberate) similarities between the two. It may be a rollicking adventure, many say, but a lot of it feels like a retread. Star Wars: The Force Awakens is a cultural juggernaut, but it isn't without its detractors.
