Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is an action-adventure game about the Jedi, where only a few survived after Order 66. The story begins several years after the death of the Order, and the hero tries not to give himself away. Companions and mentors guide the hero through the plot, and their fates depend on how the player behaves in battle and in conversations. The main character is the young Padawan Cal, who is trying to restore lost knowledge and find a way forward. As the story progresses, he meets mentors and adversaries, and his decisions influence who he becomes. Secrets are hidden in places that cannot be reached without new abilities, so the maps are worth revisiting. Lightsaber combat is all about parrying and endurance: strikes require rhythm, and tougher enemies force you to learn the moves. Strength unlocks pushing, slowing, and controlling objects, and with it, routes change. Enemies range from imperial stormtroopers to local beasts and drones. The planets are divided into several large locations with secrets, shelters and returns to places where you couldn’t reach before. Puzzles, collections and rare materials encourage you to explore everything. Skills are upgraded in three branches, and collectibles provide bonuses to strength and health. In addition to the main line, there are tasks for residents of different worlds and the search for materials for a lightsaber. It’s worth returning to planets you’ve already traversed, because new abilities open up shortcuts. For those who miss adventures about the Jedi, this story provides a full-fledged trip.
