While this fun-poking portrayal of last year’s blockbuster does an especially good job of recreating memorable scenes that will stretch smiles across the faces of kids and adults alike, this latest Lego-fied romp taxes the thumbs as much as it tickles the funny bone. Of course, if you’ve played any previous Lego titles, you’re well aware of the series’ ability to parody popular properties-from “Harry Potter” and “The Hobbit” to Marvel’s Mightiest Heroes and even DC Comics’ brooding bat - with charm, personality, and style to spare. It’s a hilarious scene, and just one of many that unfold during both gameplay encounters and cut-scenes. That’s right: upon conjuring a giant tub of kernels, your fire-flinging foe will cook them just before his allies excitedly attempt to catch the freshly popped corn in their helmets. Because this is the latest entry in the brick-based, family-friendly franchise, though, you don’t dispatch the blocky baddie with a blaster or lightsaber, but with, well … popcorn.
Less than an hour into Lego Star Wars: The Force Awakens, you’ll find yourself facing one of the First Order’s fearsome Flametroopers.
