The lightsaber you build yourself, Luke's Academy, and a whole mythology you carry with you.

Jedi Academy's profile rests on few votes, so go easy. But it already tells a fine story of contrast. Attachment and rediscovery climb hard, ahead of three quarters of games, the soundtrack follows in the same heights. The art style and controller feel stay above average. And then fun collapses, right at the bottom, ahead of barely 14% of games. There's the tension, to be confirmed on these early duels: you adore it, you dream of rediscovering it, but the pure session doesn't hold through the night. It's the strength of the license and the memory talking, more than the immediate joy of playing.

In the family of Star Wars shooters of the era, it remains a reference for saber combat and the light side or dark side freedom. A game of mood and identity, dated in its feel but strong in its world.

So, who's it for? You, if you love the Star Wars universe, the homemade lightsaber and a soundtrack that carries you away. Much less if you want modern, snappy gameplay that grips you on mechanics alone.
