Lego Star Wars: The Force Awakens Hands-On Review - 12 Things You Need To Know

6. There's Even More Multiplayer Elements Than Previously

To say a LEGO game is built with multiplayer in mind may seem a bit defunct at this point - that was a key selling point of the first LEGO Star Wars game, with simple co-op set-up and several dual puzzles. However, The Force Awakens takes things a step further, using the previous developments of split screens and larger areas to offer up a very interesting multiplayer experience. In the felled Star Destroyer, at one point BB-8 has to go rolling through its bowels to advance to the next area, leaving Rey stuck on a small platform. Rather than forcing the player controlling the scavenger to start twiddling their thumbs, this area has several hidden goodies that, if anything, take longer to play with than what the droid's up to.
