LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens - 13 Exciting Details We Just Learned

1. BB-8 Is Amazing

As if you needed further confirmation - by far the best base level character is the infinitely charming BB-8, who everyone seems to be in love with (including Graham Goring, who almost mists over when mentioning the little droid).

The gameplay allows for unprecedented BB-8 play as you can mount droids for a joyride, fight stormtroopers (admittedly beating them takes a lot of trial and error as the droid's attacks are limited at best) and just roll around in absolute joy. There are few more pleasurable play experiences than riding on the back of a mouse droid for no reason.

That's all inevitably accompanied by the droids vocal quirks and animations that it's impossible not to melt at all over again. If BB-8 isn't your favourite character after you've played, I will be incredibly shocked.
