4 | Developed by Creator/BeamSoftware for [[Creator/{{LucasArts}} Lucasfilm Games]] and published by JVC, ''Star Wars'' is a 1991 Platform/NintendoEntertainmentSystem based on the film ''Film/ANewHope''. Unlike ''VideoGame/StarWarsNamco'', it is a lot more faithful to the source in question. It was ported a year later to the Platform/GameBoy, and in 1993 on the Platform/SegaMasterSystem and Platform/GameGear. |

6 | !!This game contains examples of: |
7 | |
8 | * AdaptedOut: As with Namco's ''Star Wars'' game, Grand Moff Tarkin is nowhere to be found, despite being the film's BigBad. |
9 | * BottomlessPits: In the Death Star, there are bottomless pits in the Tractor Beam boss fight and the Dianoga boss fight, in the form of sewage. |
10 | * EternalEngine: It's the setting for inside the Death Star. Inside the base is some of the most dangerous foes you have faced. |
11 | * FallDamage: Your playable character will take fall damage if they fall a certain height. The further the fall, the more damage they take. |
12 | * GameOverMan: Darth Vader appears on the Game Over screen if the player decides to not to continue or once all continues are used up. |
13 | * InvincibleMinorMinion: Quite a few enemies are invulnerable and are best avoided. An example would be the Tripod gunners on the Death Star. |
14 | * JumpPhysics: Jumping is extremely floaty in this game. It is very difficult to control your character's jump mid-flight. |
15 | * KilledOffForReal: If you somehow didn't get Obi-Wan, if either Han or Leia are defeated, they're dead for real. |
16 | * OutOfContinues: If Han Solo or Leia are defeated and there are no charges left to revive either, they're gone for good. |
17 | * PointOfNoReturn: Once you leave Tatooine through the Millennium Falcon, you cannot go back. You better check every cave before you head to Mos Eisley. |
18 | * RiseToTheChallenge: During the battle with the Dianoga, the sewage will slowly be rising. You need to be quick before it kills your character. |
19 | * SpikesOfDoom: They are everywhere in the last level in the Death Star level. Touching them will cause your character to recoil and take a lot of damage. |
20 | * TheUnfought: Darth Vader is never fought once in the game. |
21 | * UndergroundLevel: The caves of Tatooine are full of dangerous creatures, Tusken Raiders and Sand People. Be careful, as the latter two pack quite a punch if they collide into Luke! |
