How it plays

How does LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy play?

The game uses a side-scrolling perspective. Each stage follows a scene from the original trilogy and usually combines platforming, blaster or lightsaber combat, environmental puzzles, and collectible hunting.

Players switch between available characters to use different abilities, defeat enemies, assemble LEGO objects, and open routes. Story stages can be replayed to find additional collectibles and reach areas that were inaccessible during the first visit.

Plan your run

What is the best way to play LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy?

Search each area before moving to the next objective. Studs and hidden objects are often placed above the main route or behind destructible LEGO scenery.

Use the character with the appropriate ability rather than trying to force a route with the current hero. Replay completed stages when a newly available character can reach previously blocked areas.
