Classic colour vector game - based on film.
Fly around a little with no control over the ship's movement,
shooting some TIE fighters, then fly through the trench in the Deathstar,
and shoot the exhaust port. Then do it all over with more enemies, but it's
fun to play anyway.
The graphics are really stunning for the era, although
there is a substantial amount of flicker when displaying large amounts of
text. Cool looking cabinet, likes to overheat if left on by accident.

Comment: "hated the beginning, with the tie-fighters - loved to get in the trench and use The Force. Major gripe was the controls - push up to make the crossfire go down...etc"

Comment: "Quite impressive. The cool cabinet added to the experience, so you never got tired of playing this game. Nice speech samples. ''Look at the Size of that thing..''. "

Comment: "Absolutely top game. I loved the sit down/in version. We had a stand up machine at college and me and a friend had a running competition all year...we were StarWars arcade champions, although I never did get to beat him (his score 60+, mine 58 !!!).
'The Force Will Be With You... Always'
COOL !!!
If I could find a machine, and had the spare money, I would buy it no question. There must be some out there."
