DESCRIPTION

The sequel to Super Star Wars, Super Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back has fuzzier visuals than the original game, but the score, the voice effects, the graphics, and the action scenarios are superbly faithful to the film. Gameplay involves riding a Taun-Taun through a blizzard on Hoth, piloting a snowspeeder while battling AT-AT walkers, battling Boba Fett in Cloud City, facing Darth Vader in the Reactor, and much more. Once again, depending on the level, players control Luke Skywalker, Han Solo or Chewbacca, and once again there's a lot of running, jumping, shooting, and lightsabering. However, this time, thanks to a user-friendly password feature, there's far less frustration involved in trying to beat the game. Speaking of frustration, there are a number of blind jumps and cheap hits (from off screen enemies), but this doesn't spoil the overall greatness of the game. ~ Brett Alan Weiss, All Game Guide

Super Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back (SNES) by: DevsterC

“Another superb movie adaptation with good level design expanding on the film without seeming like there is unnecessary filler. Challenging, but not impossible.”
