The game uses a third-person 3D perspective and progresses chapter by chapter through the six films. Each stage usually lets you switch between two characters, using their different abilities to fight, solve puzzles, build LEGO objects, or operate vehicles. The top screen shows the action while the bottom screen displays the character list and switching interface. After clearing a stage, players can replay it to collect hidden items, unlock characters, and complete optional objectives.

Luke Skywalker

A key protagonist of the original trilogy with strong lightsaber combat and Force-based interactions.

Anakin Skywalker

A central prequel-era character important to both combat and story progression.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

A Jedi who excels in lightsaber fights and activating certain mechanisms.

Han Solo

A smuggler and rebel ally focused on blaster combat and interaction tasks.

Princess Leia

A rebel leader who appears in combat and story-specific stages.

Pay close attention to destructible LEGO objects, since many secrets and hidden paths are tucked into the scenery. When switching characters, keep one with ranged attacks and another with utility or melee skills. Replaying chapters after unlocking more characters is the fastest way to gather minikits and other collectibles.
