!!This game contains examples of:

* ActuallyADoombot: Darth Vader will sometimes transform into a creature appropriate with the world. Such as for example, him turning into a scorpion on Tatooine.
* AdaptedOut: The BigBad of ''A New Hope'', Grand Moff Tarkin, is nowhere to be found.
* BeamSword: By spending enough Force Power, you can shoot beams from your Lightsaber.
* FrigidWaterIsHarmless: Averted, as frigid water in the ice world is treated as a BottomlessPit.
* GameOverMan: Darth Vader appears on the Game Over screen, complete with his breathing sound effect.
* GuideDangIt: You wouldn't know if you played it without hints, but to get past a guard in the ice world, you have to have C-3PO talk to him.
* TheMaze: The Death Star is an intricate maze that you will need to memorize because it gets very confusing.
* OneHitPointWonder: Getting hit once will cost you a life. Even flying the Millennium Falcon or X-Wing will mean a single bullet will destroy your ship.
* RatchetScrolling: You can't backtrack after scrolling past an area. This becomes very problematic in the mountain level and Yavin IV because what was a platform could get scrolled off the screen, leading to a BottomlessPit.
* UnderTheSea: The water world is home to dangerous sea creatures. Luke must swim through the waters to rescue C-3PO.
