RETURN OF THE JEDI
Chapter 1
JABBA'S PALACE
Luke Skywalker has returned to his home planet of Tatooine in an attempt to rescue his friend Han Solo from the clutches of the vile gangster Jabba the Hutt.
Little does Luke know that the Galactic Empire has secretly begun construction on a new armored space station even more powerful than the first dreaded Death Star.
When completed, this ultimate weapon will spell certain doom for the small band of Rebels struggling to restore freedom to the galaxy....
Playable Characters: Princess Leia (Boushh), Chewbacca, Luke Skywalker (Jedi), R2-D2, C-3PO, Han Solo (Skiff)
Enemies: Gamorrean Guard, Rancor
True Jedi at 43,000: Higher than its LSWII counterpart, but still relatively simple. Remember that the Gamorrean Guards are tough and more resistant than your usual Droid or Imperial mook.
Starting with Leia and Chewie, our first goal is to enter the Palace. Head towards the gate and you'll see three gold studs. Jumping in front of them will reveal an opening, with a turret inside. Destroy it with your blaster to defeat them. To get to the one in the middle, build the pieces directly in front into a small platform, and use it to jump up. Once all three turrets are destroyed, the door will open. Head inside and follow the path down, grabbing the Power-Up on the right side, and flipping the levers along the way so the Gamorrean Guards will stop spawning. These guys are a bit tougher than Stormtroopers and wield an axe rather than a blaster. When you reach the locked door, you want to head to the room on the left. Grab the Bounty Hunter Helmet here, which will also allow Leia to throw bombs with the other attack button. Head back to the gate and use the Bounty Hunter Panel to open it. Head through the large doors here, where you'll find Luke! Head straight and build the pieces into a Bounty Hunter Panel, and use it to progress.
Flip the switch on the left side of the room to stop the Gamorreans, then head to the right. Destroy the box to release pieces to build a platform, and force it up when either Chewie or Leia are standing on it. The cage to the left will open once the other character falls into it. Flip both switches to open the large gate, where you'll see some silver objects. Using Leia, grab a Bounty Hunter Helmet from near the start of the room, blow it open with a detonator, and move into the next room. Flip the lever straight ahead to stop the enemies, then head right. Destroy all four orange bricks on both sides of the gate to open it. Head through the hallway, avoiding the collapsible floors if possible. When you reach the gate it will open automatically. Head down the stairs into the next part. Head to the left side and Force the bricks in the wall out. Build them once this is done into a hovering platform. We can't move this yet so head right and flip both levers. Build the pieces dispensed out into buttons. Pressing these will move the hovering platform according to the arrow on the currently activated button. Send the platform straight up, and use Luke to Jump into 3PO's cage, then send the platform right and do the same with R2. With the droids in tow, activate both the Astromech and Protocol Panel to open the door. Follow the stairs around to come to another door. Use the Astromech Panel to the right to open it.
Flip the lever to the far right as you enter, stopping the Guards. Push the blocks here into their positions, from tallest at the back, to shortest at the front. Force the parts on top so everyone can reach the upper level. Destroy the two objects here to release some LEGO pieces. Build them into a platform. Force this platform into place and stand on it, you can see you can Force something on the wall. Do this to complete the bridge. Flip the lever straight ahead here to stop more Guards, then use R2 to hover across the gap to the left. Use the Astromech Panel to extend the bridge, then destroy the objects near the door to build the Protocol Panel and enter the next area.
Head down the stairs and flip the lever directly ahead, and the lever on the left side to stop the Gamorreans. Defeat any remaining Guards to open the gate to the main throne room. Grab a Bounty Hunter Helmet from here and enter the throne room area. In the Throne Room, there's a Power-Up in a torch on the left side to help with the Guards. With the Bounty Hunter Helmet, use the Bounty Hunter Panel to the right of Han, frozen in Carbonite.
We've lost Leia but gained Han. The Rancor has 3 hearts and there's an Astromech Panel on the right and a Protocol Panel on the left. With a Power-Up sitting under the gate, we can start the fight. Using either of the Panels will release a guard into the arena. While the Rancor is distracted eating a guard, blow up a bomb sitting near him. Do this once more to get him to 1 heart. This time, when the Rancor grabs the guard to eat, he will take him to a spot under the gate. Flip both levers near the gate to make it fall, ending the stage.
