okay if you have an older phone this game will slow down and lag. Other than that it is a decent port of the game. The only thing I would fix is how R2-D2 sounds. He sounds like someone uped his moving sound to the point of going deaf. Instead of 160 Gold Bricks now its 200 and if had to make an decision it would be to get rid of the blue minkit challenge. One part I do like is the ability to skip cutscenes.

The latest update has fixed a couple of major bugs, which I am very grateful for, but there are a lot of other issues with this port. Character models, such as Sebulba in the Podrace Lap 2 cutscene, don't always load right, or load at all. Pausing as you transition to another part of the level is a truly indescribable experience, and the Tow Death Star power brick makes the bombs sometimes clip through AT-ATs in Episode 5 level 1 instead of destroying them. Great game, flawed port. 5/10
It is astonishing just how many things won't load in properly, across both devices I tested this on. Buildings on Coruscant, some of the ships battling over Coruscant, the Tantive IV around Leia and Antilles, C-3P0... About the only level I've played so far that works properly is level 1 of Episode 1. And I'm pretty sure I've gotten more graphically demanding games to WORK on both devices. All you wanna do is finish a game you never completed as a child... All you get is stuff not loading in.
Love the game, but unfortunately it's unplayable because there's a certain point in chapter 5 of episode 1 where the game just force closes. Wouldn't have spent $7 on this game if I'd known that. Will update rating to 5 stars if that gets fixed, though. Edit: It'd be great if I could get a refund. As much as I love this game, it's useless.
Love that I can play this on my phone whenever I want. But, often times after I complete a level, it won't save my progress and I'll have to play through it again. Also, Ep. 1 chapter 5 is glitched. Everytime I get to a specific point in that level, the game crashes. I literally cannot complete the level because of this.
Always was my favorite game since I was a kid. I remember going to Family video with my mom to rent the game and play it every weekend. 25 now and it still holds a place for me. The graphics are the same for the nostalgia, I like the control system and the fact a bkuetooth controller can be used for this game. I was really surprised to see there was an update and it was to support android 15. I have also noticed some of the bugs and glitches I have noticed in the game are gone now.
overall, i love this game and pretty much every lego game i've played, but for some reason, on the mobile version of this game, when you get to episode 4, lvl 2, there's a spot where you need to push a lever and your character just walks through it, so episode 4 is unplayable. that said, i haven't encountered any other bugs like this yet, the rest of the game is probably fine, but consider this before purchasing
Relatively solid port, but there are some things that keep it from being great. For one, there are a lot of graphical issues, such as camera clipping on cutscenes, 2d sprites having improper cutoffs (this is really apparent on the studs and character portraits), and I even had a vertex explosion once. Controller support is iffy as well, with the inability to change characters in free play without use of the touch screen. There are also basically NO options, so you can't rebind controls.
Game is great, but it's clear very little work went into this port. The controls can not be moved on screen, so I find it difficult to get to certain buttons at times. The floor/ground does not render at times, and I wish there was a different way to save. This game only autosaves after completing a level or buying something in the Cantina, and that does not lend itself very well to a mobile game style with shorter sessions. Other than that, it plays like it always has.
Hate giving this a low rating. Loved playing this when it was out on Nintendo DS. One of my all time favorite games so when I saw it on the Google Play store I had to jump on it. Unfortunately, the game is ridden with numerous display issues making several levels extremely difficult to play. On top of that, several characters are reduced to only foot shadows as they're otherwise invisible. If you happen to be on levels with no floor due to glitch, good luck finding your way around. please fix!!
