Much like the prequel film itself, you get two completely different experiences when playing through this game as a youngling or an adult. As a kid, this game will kick your ass every chance it gets, as it is not short on enemies, blaster fire, or insta-kill moments, and you might hate this game as a result.

As an adult, who clearly loves learning about trade blockades and space politics, you'll see this game as a kind of fine wine... or at least a chilled bottle of Buckfast that will hoof your teeth out given half the chance. If you can tame this beast then it's a blast from start to finish.
