Star Wars Episode I: Obi-Wan's Adventures

Like many a Star Wars movie-based Pak, Obi-Wan's Adventures hands you control of the Ewan McGregor character through nine levels that faithfully follow Episode I's entire story. You'll get to leap over electrified floor panels on the Trade Federation Ship, battle bats in the Naboo Swamp and tussle with bounty hunters on Coruscant on your way to a final face-off with Darth Maul at Theed Palace. The young Obi-Wan's key weapon is his light saber , you can even press A repeatedly to deflect laser fire back at droids. This all-purpose weapon also opens doors, activates switches and destroys objects. Press Select to arm the blaster or tap the awesome power of the Force, which allows Obi-Wan to telekinetically move objects or throw a droid out of the way like a rag doll. You'll need to collect ammo for the blaster and energy for the Force. Obi-Wan is pretty much a foot soldier here, although he does get to pilot a Gungan craft through the Naboo Swamp. Developer HotGen have intelligently mixed up the perspectives, so passing through a sliding door might take you from a three-quarters to a refreshing overhead view. If the Force isn't so strong in you, there's the option of choosing an easy difficulty setting - experienced Jedi knights can plunge into hard mode instead. Star Wars fans get the full LucasArts treatment with plenty of movie stills and, of course, that classic theme music.
