The dog fighting is rarely simple but also works well in the games split screen mode. It wouldn’t be Star Wars either without some space battles, you can try out the new First Order Tie Fighter, the updated X-Wings and of course the Millennium Falcon. It’s a welcome break from the standard isometric presentation and allows some of the great environments and scale of the Star Wars world to shine. At certain points in the game you’ll go into a ‘shooting gallery’ style section and have to take out things from behind cover. The other new big mechanic change is the addition of a ‘cover shooter’ section. These multi builds also hold a lot of the games’ secrets, you’ll need to sometimes explore both builds to find everything. It’s not used too much and is never entirely complicated but it’s good to see more thought put into the puzzles. It’s more than just aesthetics too, the multi builds allow for more complex puzzles or multiple routes through the game. First up, Multi Builds allow you to chose between two different solutions to build, these are the piles of bricks on the ground where you hold A – but you can choose between two now. However credit to TT for trying out some new ideas in this one to mix things up. There’s studs to collect, enemies to bash up, red bricks to hunt and more. So for the most part, LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens follows the traditional ‘LEGO’ formula. Still wanted to jump head into The Force Awakens but I can see why it was done. You’re run through the main new gameplay mechanics during this time, so they introduced something new with something old. Oddly, the first level of the game is actually the Battle of Endor from Episode VI, which while feeling annoying, serves as the prologue to the main game. There’s bits that weren’t in the movie and it serves to fill in the official story – that’s pretty great!
They could have just rested on that and it would have been enough but TT Games went a step further and have included and added canon content to the game. LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens as you would expect follows the plot of the movie closely, naturally with a ton of ‘LEGO’ genuinely funny humour thrown in. Kind of, because for how much of this game is the same as other LEGO games, there’s still a ton of new ideas that can be worked on. In those reviews we usually say ‘its good, but its just another LEGO game’ and this kind of applies here with LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
Over the year’s we’ve reviewed a lot of LEGO games, a lot.
