Title
Hokey Religions and Ancient Weapons Are No Match for a Good Blaster at Your Side, Kid
The ONLY way to experience this game is sitting inside one of the modules with the speakers blaring. The graphics were all basic vectors, and it looked sensational. There was nothing more exciting than chasing and blasting away those TIE fighters and to then hear Luke say "this is Red 5, I'm going in" before zooming down to the canyon on the Death Star for the final run to the exhaust port. Every game was a frantic mélange of shooting, flying and snatches of dialogue from the movie. I always finished a game feeling immensely pumped up, particularly after receiving Obi-Wan's parting words of comfort after the inevitable loss: "Remember - the force will be with you. Always."

    This is one of those "you have to play the arcade machine" to actually get the full experience. MAME does not do the game's justice.

    Played a sitdown cab version of this so many years ago and it was awesome, super innovative for the 80's

    One of the arcade cabs at Chuck E Cheese and Caesarland in the 90s, great experience.
