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

5. It's Full Of Easter Eggs And References To The Originals

LEGO games always have some really cheeky, license-specific easter eggs, which means in The Force Awakens is a veritable feast for Star Wars fans old and older. Graham Goring, Lead Story Designer at TT Games made a point of this in his demonstration, but getting a hands-on only hammered this home; Star Wars may be forging forward, but this game like the movie is very aware of its past. Naturally on Jakku there's a plethora of rusted original trilogy vehicles (some of which you can interact with, complete with suitable Imperial March sound clips), but there's lot of the more typically silly inclusions too, like a model of Jabba's Palace that can be destroyed to make the pieces for a rideable Sandcrawler or a giant mouse droid used to scare a Luggabeast. Based on what's here, Star Wars fans of all leanings are in for a treat.
