Alternatively, fully exploring the choices can reward you with a collectible, or simply lead to a visual gag. The best uses for this come within puzzles, where the same selection of bricks must be assembled into different parts of a machine in sequence within a time limit. The new gameplay twist comes in the form of rebuilds, where piles of pieces can be combined into more than one creation, broken down and rearranged into another. Aerial battles, meanwhile, are genuinely great, especially in areas which let you fly freely around, find collectibles, and blast enemy craft. Almost every mission includes a cover-based battle, where the camera pulls in to an over-shoulder perspective and you pop out to fire on enemies. Levels are now interspersed with cover shooting and aerial dogfighting, both fun additions, even if shooting people in the face feels slightly odd for a Lego title. Two new types of gameplay help break this up, however, and a third invention adds a new twist. Smash stuff, build stuff, funny cutscene, rinse n' repeat. Lego's basic game formula remains largely unchanged.

But while Force Awakens' prologue does plenty to move the series' gameplay on, it also acts as a reminder of the series' regular pacing, which Force Awakens throws out the window. It is the Lego games' own Special Edition moment, with all of TT's' latest tech in place. It also showcases how far Lego games have evolved, however slowly, since developer TT Games originally adapted these scenes ten years ago.

I love the prologue - it sets the scene, it gives you a chance to play as some of the saga's heroes in their heyday, it gives them an excuse to appear on the game's character roster. It's not, though some later levels are admittedly not great - we'll come to those shortly. You may be thinking it's all downhill from there then.

Availability: Out now on PS4, Xbox One, PC, Wii U, PS3 and Xbox 360.
