A regular game, gives fun but you can easily get bored.
A big plus is that is a long game which gives the opportunity to do different things and not fall into a boring loop.

Poor game balance = not fun

I bought my son (5 years old at the time) the Lego Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy. That was a lot of fun and filled with spacial puzzle solving. But this version is not. Someone got involved who decided they needed to introduce "GAME BALANCE". Unfortunately it was done poorly. You have scenarios where you make a bunch of points, far more than the original game, and then a sequence that repeatedly destroys you till you have 0 points and all you want to do is get to the end so you can stop playing. Several of the scenarios have some good puzzles in them and are fun, but most of the others are not that interesting. The destructive ones suck the life out of you. My son has been playing the original for a year and both of us find this one frustrating and not as much fun.

The comments of several of the other reviewers match our experiences. The game has frozen the Wii several times. Not being able to direct the light saber with the remote is a major disappointment. It has also gotten into a state a few times where the characters can't perform an action, such as the child Boba Fett not being able to crawl back out through an access after crawling in, thus trapping the character and forcing my son to exit the game.

Maybe they were trying to make it more difficult for an older audience, but the Original Lego Star Wars II was the best children's computer game I had yet bought for my son. There are more than enough computer games out there with blood and guts and more adult themes. This series should stay focused on kids. If they wanted to make it more difficult, they should have built in a more even mechanism for changing the play level and making it selectable. I was really hoping this new edition was going to take it up a notch.

Fun for all ages!

The first Lego Star Wars game was great. This one, for the Wii, is even better. I don't play...I just watch my kids play. And I can tell you this: If a Wii game is enjoyed immensely by both my 18-year-old and my 11-year-old, then it's gotta be top-notch. This game is fun for all ages.

Great for Star Wars Fans!

I purchased this product for my son for Christmas. He has both of the other Lego Star Wars video games. He loves this one! Like with most video games, it's hard to get him to stop playing... with this one, it is the right level of challenge.

THIS IS THE BEST GAME EVER!!!!!

I am a 10 1/2 year old boy and this is the number one game invented for Wii. If you own only one game, make it this Star Wars Saga game. It has great graphics and fun free play and multi-player mode. This is an awesome, must-have game.

So much fun!

This game has been well worth the money. My 8 and 6 year old boys love it. It's the only video game so far that I actually enjoy watching them play. There are endless levels, characters to buy, and bonuses. Definately reccommended.

Gotta Love It

This was a gift for my son, but I've had a great time playing it too. If you're familiar with the SW saga, you'll be amazed at how close the storyline follows the movies. It's nice that you don't have to start a level over when you "die"...you just loose a few pieces and keep on going. The controls (nunchuk and controller) are pretty easy to pick up and swinging a lightsaber has never been more fun. My kids and I are looking forward to the Indian Jones Lego game release.
