Lego Star Wars: the Force Awakens feels, in gameplay terms, like the most diverse and varied game TT Games has ever made, neatly sidestepping those recent suspicions of saminess. Which adds a bit of complexity to the puzzling, since you often have to build something, use it, smash it up and rebuild it as something else. This time around, you are given the ability to build different objects from each pile of bricks, by moving the right-stick around and highighting different construction-points. Lego Star Wars review: Building blocksĪ small but significant alteration has been made to one of the franchise's key gameplay mechanics, too. ![]() Naturally, you get to wield a light-sabre and, when you've finished the story and want to mine the levels for all their collectables, you even find puzzles that require use of the Dark Side's force. ![]() But this time around, you even find instances of cover-shooting (albeit ones with loads of snap, making it really easy to target enemies more or less instantly).Īnd on top of that, the game features many set-pieces in which you get to engage in proper Star Wars-style battles, putting you at the controls of, among other things, AT-STs, X-Wings, Tie Fighters, the Millennium Falcon and countless turrets. Sure, it still involves plenty of smashing of objects and rebuilding them in order to solve puzzles, plus swapping between characters, and the familiar meleeing and shooting. The decision to drill deep down into the film, rather than skimming off its highlights, has another welcome by-product: it has freed up TT Games to expand the gameplay beyond what you normally find in a Lego game. If you ever wondered what The Force Awakens would have been like if JJ Abrams had ramped up the silliness-level, here's your answer. Which means countless little humorous touches in which, say, stormtroopers clown around at rallies which originally had fascistic overtones, or you find yourself on a mission to stock up on wookiee-cookies for Chewbacca before he will even contemplate getting into the Millennium Falcon. What you get is an unprecedentedly faithful rendering of the film, seen via TT Games' unique Lego-prism.
