Synopsis
After a near fatal duel with the Dark Lord, Darth Vader, you find yourself trapped aboard a section of the Deathstar with little strength and with Vader waiting nearby. You may not be able to destroy Vader but he guards a computer which holds half of the transporter coordinates that you desperately need. To have any chance against him you must reclaim your light sabre which you lost in the previous duel, but Vader has placed a Huge Ugly Alien in guard of your weapon. Can you discover something that will destroy the creature? Vader has also depressurised the corridor which contains the computer that holds the other half of the transporter coordinates, as well as the transporter itself, and the elevator necessary for your escape.
Beyond the elevator your path is blocked by force fields. Only the Glowing Emerald holds the power to let you pass the fields unharmed, but the gem is in the ship's vault. You may be able to use the transporter to reach the vault, but without your communicator how will you get out? You know you lost your communicator in your last encounter with the Dark Lord and that it now lies in a pit at the base a cliff on the planet below, but will it still work?
This game also contains arcade sequences for which a joystick is required.

Sudden death syndrome, trial-and-error situations with game ending results if you guess wrong, and a ridiculously tricky arcade game that you need to beat twice. In other words, this program contains all the elements that you don't want in an adventure game.
