Super Star Wars

Super Star Wars generally follows the plot of Star Wars , although some allowances were made to adapt the story to suit an action game. For example, instead of simply buying C-3PO and R2-D2 from the Jawas , Luke Skywalker must fight his way to the top of a Jawa sandcrawler while leaping from a series of moving conveyor belts. Brief cutscenes between levels tell an abbreviated version of the film's story. Later stages allow the player to control smuggler and pilot Han Solo or Chewbacca the Wookiee .

The game also features several vehicle-based levels in which the player takes control of an X-Wing or a landspeeder. Most of the stages consist of run and gun and platforming gameplay, with several different upgrades available to the standard blaster weapon. Luke can also wield a lightsaber after acquiring it from Obi-Wan Kenobi . The end of the game has players reenacting Luke's Death Star trench run to destroy the Death Star , with Darth Vader confronting the player in his TIE Advanced x1.
