Luke uses the lightsaber as his primary attack, and he can also use the Force to execute special maneuvers like floating, speeding, and stopping time, among others. It also does not show Obi-Wan being killed by Vader, although the guide in Nintendo Power does nonetheless reference Obi-Wan's death at the hands of Vader.įor the most part, the game is a typical side-scrolling platformer.

He also travels through a series of caves on Tatooine filled with dangerous creatures. Luke Skywalker must rescue R2-D2 from a Jawa sandcrawler, which he ends up in after leaving to find Obi-Wan Kenobi. Characters have to fight their way from scene to scene. The plot of the game is mostly based on the story of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, with changes to suit a video game. The Sand People carry out their attack with powerful energy blasts released from their body. In combat with Tusken Raiders, Luke avoids their swinging gaffi sticks and counterattacks when he is out of melee range. He dodges and blasts swarms of sand flies, who instinctively attack and try to knock Luke into the abyss below.ĭeep inside the cave its primary inhabitants, Sand People and Tusken Raider, recognize Luke as an intruder and attack without warning. As the cave opens up, Luke is faced with smaller platforms that require long jumps to traverse. The cave is also plagued by dripping ooze, as well as crawling Sand Slugs, which Luke dispatches with his blaster. The uneven ground on the inside sets off deadly boulders barreling towards Luke, who continues to ascend the paths. With C-3PO and R2-D2 in tow, Luke explores the Tusken Cave, named for its vicious native inhabitants. " Sir, R2-D2 here says that he is the property of a General Kenobi." ―C-3PO īefore investigating this lead, Luke searches nearby caves for supplies before advancing onwards. After being rescued, R2-D2 explains more of his mission to C-3PO: he is searching for his master, who is a resident of Tatooine by the name of General Kenobi. After navigating the maze of the sandcrawler, Luke finally finds R2-D2 at the very top. A blue guard droid proves formidable as it emits a devastating energy blast and is immune to Luke's blaster shots. Luke also uses these mechanics to his advantage, as he runs along conveyer belts and jumps along anti-gravity Jump Boosters to ascend to higher levels, blasting hostile Jawas along the way. Luke discovers that the inner workings of the Sandcrawer double as traps for intruders, such as Metal Mashers that are made to pound scrap metal with deadly force. Upon inquiring about R2-D2's whereabouts, Luke is immediately met with resistance from the Jawas and must fight his way to R2-D2's location. " My scanners show that R2-D2 is located in this Sandcrawler." ―C-3PO Ĭontinuing their search back on Luke's landspeeder, C-3PO's scanners confirm that R2-D2 is being held within the Jawas' massive sandcrawler, confirming that R2-D2 was once again captured by Jawas as he traversed the Tatooine Desert alone. Another deadly trap Luke encounters is volatile ooze dripping from the stalagmites on the ceiling. Luke navigates the dark, expansive cavern while jumping over large gaps with deadly sharp bones at the bottom. Luke's first stop is the cave entrance to the Laser Cave. Meanwhile his Stormtroopers have set up laser cannons throughout the desert to prevent any resistance to the Empire's operation. He sent out various Imperial Probes to search for the droids and use deadly force if encountered. Having received word that the Rebel droids have the stolen Death Star plans, Darth Vader has sent a scouting party down to the Tatooine as well in hopes to intercept them.
Luke takes C-3PO along as he uses his landspeeder to traverse the desolate wilderness, avoiding dangers such as charging banthas and strategic radar stations. C-3PO is left to explain to Skywalker that R2 spoke of fulfilling his mission before escaping. Unbeknownst to his new owners, the smaller droid, R2-D2 slips away. They are recovered by Jawas and are subsequently sold to Luke Skywalker and his Uncle Owen. Pursued by the Empire, two droids in the service of the Rebellion, R2-D2 and C-3PO, manage to escape to the planet Tatooine. I told R2-D2 not to go but he's faulty, malfunctioning! He kept babbling on about his mission." ―C-3PO
