Star Wars Escape the Death Star Action Figure Game

Hasbro:  Released in 1998.  May the Force--and a good roll of the dice, too--be with you while playing the Star Wars: Escape the Death Star Action Figure Game from Parker Brothers. Though technically more of a battle game than, as the title suggests, a race to the nearest exit, this engaging and clearly explained boxful contains rules for two games: The basic game, for players ages 6 and 7 years old, invites rebels to attack Boba Fett, Darth Vader, and a half-dozen Stormtroopers, all of whom are guarding the Millennium Falcon at the center of the board designed as a series of Death Star corridors and passageways. By landing on a square occupied by a baddie, and rolling a six before the villain does (Boba wins in the event of a tie, while Vader gets to roll two dice to your one) you win the battle. When all eight Imperials are captured, add up your points. A more complex game for older ages involves one player controlling an Imperial against all opponents, and introduces the concept of secret moves on a personal miniboard, which are then revealed simultaneously. Adaptable for use with additional action figures (Luke and Vader are included here), this is an enthralling game to which Star Warriors will want to--like a Jedi--return.

Recreate classic Star Wars movie battles in two games! In the first, for younger players, Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Princess Leia and Chewbacca sneak through the Death Star capturing Imperials. Can you score the most captures! Now advance to the next game - and take sides. Darth Vader, Boba Fett and stormtroopers move in the open, capturing Rebel Code Cards to win. But the rebels move in secret. To win, they must use strategy to reach the Millenium Falcon, then dice-roll their way off the Death Star! Add other action figures you already own...and fill the game board with life-like Star Wars characters!
