Have you ever wanted to be a kid again?
Star Wars already brings childhood nostalgia to me all the time but when you combine it with Lego, that nostalgia factor is turned up to 11. I played the original Lego Star Wars (which only included the prequel trilogy) on my Gamecube when I was in elementary school and it was always one of my favorites. That's why I knew I needed to grab this on GOG. As the name implies, you get the opportunity to play through all six of the George Lucas-era films in this game but this series has always been a slightly parody-driven series. The story isn't taken seriously and there's a lot more humor, expressed through animation rather than dialogue. However, this makes the game full of an indisputable sense of fun. You can't help but have a smile on your face when you play this. That said, the gameplay and level design are equally grand. Each character plays slightly differently, each level has varying layers of depth with sections that can only be accessed by certain character types and so forth. My favorite characters always were General Grievous and Yoda because of how easy it was to absolutely ruin everyone's day with them. However, all of the characters are enjoyable to experiment with and I highly recommend doing so! All in all, if you love Star Wars or if you just want to get away from the monotonies and platitudes of adult life, this game is a great option. I'd say it's worth the $20 price but I bought it on sale, it's entirely up to you what you decide a game like this would be worth. Either way, you will almost certainly have a blast playing this!
