Dangerous traps and fearsome foes must be overcome as
Star Wars hero Jar Jar Binks tries to make his way home to Otha Gunga during the Battle of Naboo. The first player to help Jar Jar avoid all five deadly perils in this challenging 3-D board game adventure wins. Here's how it's played: interactive traps and challenges are installed on the multilevel, die-cut board. Then each player chooses a scorecard and picks a token. If you get a token that matches your scorecard color, you must help Jar Jar complete one of five dangerous tasks. If Jar Jar successfully rides the Kaadu, vanquishes powerful battle droids, or avoids the sea monster, you collect a special medal piece. To spice up the action, there are five specialty tokens with unique powers. Kids will need adult help assembling the complex board, but after that, two to four young players can happily test their skills again and again.
