Customize Your LEGO Star Wars Minifigure
One of the great features of this mobile game is the ability to really customize your LEGO Star Wars Minifigure character. Everything from the hair, head, torso, and legs can be personalized. With the LEGO elements currently available there are hundreds of thousands of different combinations. Furthermore, even emotes, expressions, hairstyles, complexion, gender, and gear are customizable features. You can truly create a one of a kind character like never before.
Lucasfilm Games, Lucasfilm Story Group, and Gameloft all worked very closely together on this project. For example, the game features a new mysterious planet, storyline, and characters never before seen in Star Wars. The story consists of eight different chapters.
Many different activities are available, such as going on quests or racing your friends in LEGO mini-fighters. Additionally, you can even play hot-potato with a droid! Other tasks are straight out of the Star Wars films. These may include boarding the Tantive IV to take out Stormtroopers, or taking a X-Wing on a spin around the Death Star. Your missions will require the use of many different items, such as a lightsaber or blaster!
One very interesting fact is that the design of the LEGO Castaways island was based off of the Disney Parks! Disney Parks use a hub and spoke pattern to easily connect different areas to one another. The island’s Marketplace, Spaceport, Observatory, Hippodrome, and beach areas are all connected to each other and also to a central hub. This should make for an easier experience for the players to find everything that they need!
