The Star Wars 3D rail shooter remake by Minionsoft shows much effort from a developer who is in love with the series very much. Each wave consists of three stages, culminating in a final run to destroy the Death Star itself. Just aim using your mouse and hold down the left button to shoot.

In the last level, you're encouraged to avoid the act of shooting completely for a substantial bonus. Guide your ship around enemy bullets and fire at the right moment to destroy the behemoth, complete with cheesy explosions that will leave a smile on your face. Use the force, Luke!

This has the potential to recapture the magic of the original, but it's insanely hard, eliminating the possibility of having any fun.

A great remake of a fantastic game. I did however experience quite a lot of broken polygons during the trench runs. Still very playable but difficult.
