Really a shame I'm ending my 8-bit era journey of Star Wars games on this one.
This is 100% the worst out of the three Famicom/NES Star Wars games. All three games are ridiculously hard, but this one is just on another level. It's not fun AT ALL, this is like one of the least fun games ever I swear.
most the levels are just endless fucking mazes, and the physics are just so weird, which makes platforming a nightmare. Absolutely garbage level design and garbage platforming.
The Sound design is some of the worst I've ever encountered on NES. The sounds are all just shit, really kinda ear hurting. The music will randomly cut in and out, it just plays at random times.
I didn't even finish this game because it's just so bad and not fun. This game deserves to be thrown away, forgotten, and lost to time. It's complete shit. What makes this even more insulting is that this came out in 1992, FUCKING 1992!!! This was at the very end of the NES's life, they should've been pushing the system to the limits, and by then had some good ideas about how to design a video game. But instead they drop this absolute garbage.
Seriously, this game is terrible.

It's about on par with episode 4 on NES, IE not great but has some really nice looking visuals for NES and especially for an NES licensed games.
far from the worst licensed nes game but really thoroughly boring nonetheless
