My favorite of the trilogy. Same as the first, awesome, but incredibly challenging

Starting this immediately after the previous game as part of my 500 follower month, the difference is VERY stark. Though the gameplay is still similar and very fun, it is also extremely difficult! I showcase this a lot in my streams of this game, but not only do the bosses appear to have more health, but, the enemies too seem to have been boosted too.

It feels like someone suggested that the previous game was too easy and then the developer snapped and was like "Easy huh? Well try this on for size!" and made the game far more difficult.

It's still quite fun, however, the bosses are fairly frustrating with the worst being the one of Degoba that have body parts that need to be destroyed first before you can actually cause any damage to the health of the beast and cut it down. It was a real pain and took the largest part of several hours to actually defeat it!

The worst was the final boss, Darth Vader, who was able to throw items at you which can be used to recharge your force power, however, you'll need to be fast before you get struck by anything.

Not to mention, he can harm you by touching you and not the same to him. When he's low on health he comes at you and there's a endless supply of things flying out at you at the same time.

Once again, it doesn't mention the twist after the battle or that Luke loses his hand since it focuses on gameplay instead.

Gameplay + Stream

Probably the coolest of the three, but still needlessly difficult.

"Impressive"... [immediately dies]

The true Dark Souls of Star Wars games!

There's so many wonderful ideas put into this that it's a shame you probably never got a chance to see it. If the developers threw a little less at you, the frames might have improved and you'd remember this as one of the best the Super Nintendo has to offer.

Just as good as Super Star Wars but the frustration is at an all time high. Inflated health on bosses and poor level design. Still fun becuase its Super Star Wars but definitely has its flaws.
