Star Wars: Episode 1: The Phantom Menace

Action Game from LucasArts Entertainment Company LLC, by Big Ape Productions

Third-person action adventure game closely based on the hit movie. You control one of four characters, specifically Obi Wan Kenobi, Qui-Gon Jinn, Queen Amidala and Captain Panaka. During parts of the game you'll be accompanied by other NPCs, such as Jar Jar Binks and Anakin Skywalker.

The game is divided into 13 levels and many of the locations in the movie are reproduced. Level objectives include successfully infiltrating a base and guiding friendly characters to safety during an escape. The game's structure is not strictly linear. At points you have a choice of dialogue responses that affect the way in which the game unfolds.

The game combines good 3D graphics with detailed backgrounds. Level settings include the spectacular underwater city on Naboo. Spaceships, robots and many other cool parts of the Star Wars Universe also feature. High-quality cutscenes develop the plot.
