LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars - 3DS (DS)

You may have thought, after fighting through blocks of Empire Stormtroopers throughout six of the Star Wars films, that would be it for the LEGO spinoff series. Well, you thought wrong - in this third adventure, Traveller’s Tales takes you through the offshoot storyline from The Clone Wars television series, all presented with the latest in toy brick rendering technology.

As with all LEGO adaptations this game does more than simply follow the plot of its source material. You’ll largely be fighting in the same sort of scenarios, but the family fun and comedy spin placed on the action will make this more of a light-hearted parody. Throw in some fan-favourite characters from the Star Wars films and you have a title which is faithful yet bold and original at the same time.

While the traditional LEGO-style adventure gameplay returns - run through various familiar scenes and battle countless enemies built from LEGO blocks, while collecting millions of studs along the way - there are some new twists in The Clone Wars too. A brand new battle mode allows you to experience head-to-head combat.

Play as either a Jedi or Separatist, grasp all of the new abilities each character has to offer, and tackle the universe in new ways with the new level hub. May the Force be with you.
