Super Star Wars is truly a legend. Nearly 12 years old and still going strong. The game has everything: graphics, music, action and adventure. Even today it still holds up. Countless hours of fun will be had with this game. Long live family entertainment.

Super Star Wars was the start of a very successful adaptation of the famous trilogy on the SNES. Each game was an action-platformer that retold the events of the movie with detail and authenticity. Graphics were sharp, controls were responsive, and the design was occasionally innovative with pseudo 3D vehicle levels. That said, the first game is definitely the weakest of the three. Lightsaber function is limited, characters cannot run and shoot at the same time, and the graphics and effects are still a bit rough around the edges. What really hurts is the lack of a password system, meaning if you die deep into the game you have to start all over. Sure you could always use the cheat codes to level skip back to where you were, but those without them faced having to start back at the Dune Sea again.
Really this is a 4-star game, but the lack of a password system keeps me from coming back to this one as much as I do the others. That Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi both have password saves (and other refined features) makes the omission here more glaring. If the lack of a password save doesn't bother you and you can confidently plow through the game in one sitting, add another star. Regardless, this is still a solid movie-to-game conversion, and should be in every Star Wars collection.
