Full description

Following the plot of the movie, Star Wars: Episode I: The Phantom Menace lets you fight through 11 levels of action. At various points in the game you will get to take control of Obi-Wan Kenobi, Qui-Gon Jinn, Queen Amidala, and Captain Panaka. Each character has a special ability or weapon to use: Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon use lightsabers and force powers, Queen Amidala's blaster can stun druids, and Captain Panaka uses a Naboo blaster. While working through each level, you can pick up new weapons like light-repeating blasters, blaster rifles, proton missile launchers, heavy blasters, thermal detonators, Gungan energy balls, flash grenades, and heavy repeating cannons. If you've seen the movie, you'll have a pretty good idea of what to expect. See if you can free Naboo from the treacherous trade federation in Star Wars: Episode I: The Phantom Menace.



If, like me, you found the movie lacking in heart and acting skills, you may find fulfillment here in the game. Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace takes place in the setting depicted by the biggest movie of 1999 that goes by the same name. You assume the role of young Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi, in this adventure game of the legendary LucasArts style. Following the storyline of the movie faithfully, you will be able to, in the end, defeat Darth Maul yourself! (like that's a surprise)

Editorial review

Source: Amazon

A role-playing tie-in to the popular movie, The Phantom Menace allows players to save the planet Naboo by assuming four roles: Obi-wan Kenobi, Qui-Gon Jinn, Queen Amidala, and the Queen's bodyguard, Captain Panaka. The action alternates between problem-solving sequences and combat, with side quests thrown in to add some mystery.

The storyline is largely faithful to the 1999 movie, taking players from a Trade Federation battleship to beautifully rendered settings, such as the underwater city of Otoh Gunga and the desert world Tattooine, while introducing them to the film's major characters. Old and new fans of the Star Wars universe will be thrilled to have the chance--as Obi-wan and Qui-Gon--to fight with a light saber, complete with the familiar sound effects. It is often hard to avoid fights--there is little scope for sneaking your way out of trouble. However, the violence committed is often against robots and as a result is fairly bloodless.

The Phantom Menace is easy to learn, despite a clunky keyboard configuration, and enjoyable to play. Advanced gamers may find it too simple for their tastes. For Star Wars devotees and newer players, this game will provide hours of enjoyment. --Alyx Dellamonica
