LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy/Episode IV: A New Hope

Go over to the Episode IV area. You will see multiple doors with either a green or a red light above it. Only one door has the green light above it (meaning you can play it) so enter it. Select Story Mode (you can't do Free Play yet) and begin.

Chapter 1: Secret Plans

 * Starting Character(s): Princess Leia, Captain Antilles
 * Other Character(s)(in order of appearance): C-3P0, R2-D2, Rebel friend
 * Enemies: Stormtroopers, Beach Troopers, Imperial Officers, Imperial Shuttle Pilots

After watching the cutscene, you may start the level. You're in a control room, to your left is a lever, to your right are some destructible boxes, and in front of you is a control board. You can pull the level if you like for a silver stud, or destroy the boxes. The door in front of you is locked, open it by building the controls. Continue into the hallway (note: the walls can be destroyed!). Pull one of the levers (your partner will get the other) and head into the hallway. You'll see some Rebels running down the hallway, follow them down it. They'll take positions by a door, that will explode when you get near it. Stormtroopers rush in and begin blasting you. Kill them all, then another wave will come in (four each wave). Once they're taken care of, you can advance. You'll get into a room with some high platforms, use the grapple points to reach an extendible bridge. Build the gears to operate it.

You enter the hallway and see someone down the corridor. Darth Vader! Do not approach him (he'll use the Force to push you away) and do not shoot at him (he's invulnerable to your blasters). Two Stormtroopers will stand beside the Sith lord and fire at you (note: they infinitely respawn). Pull one of the levers on either side of you to make a giant crate with dishes inside of it appear next to Vader. Shoot at it, and eventually it will blow up, causing Vader to retreat. Go into the room and turn left. You'll see another group of Rebels fighting some invading Stormtroopers, kill them and the wave after that to clear the doorway. While moving down that hallway you're in, you'll notice some red lights on the floor on the left and right sides, run over them to receive some studs. Go into the next room and push the blocks on the checkered floor into their deposit zones. This will open up the door in front of you, revealing a red-lit hallway, complete with three Stormies. Get rid of them, and go down the hallway to find C-3P0. Use him to open up the shield door. Princess Leia will leave your party, and you'll gain R2-D2. Have him open the door in front of you to continue.

You'll enter a room with a crane on one side and a platform with some boxes on the other side. A red Rebel is under attack by some Stormtroopers, you can blast them, or use the crane to lift them up and drop them in the pit (that's the fun way). Once they're gone, the Rebel will lower a bridge that will give you access to the other side of the room (the Rebel you saved will join your party). You'll see a Protocol droid panel by the door ahead of you, but it's on a platform off of the main one. Most of your party to can jump (or in R2's case, jet) over to the platform, but 3P0 can't. Take control of the crane, pick up 3P0, and drop him off on the platform. With that problem solved, open the door and advance. In this next hallway, you'll see that some Stormies are escorting Rebel prisoners. The Stormies will notice you, so blast them and run up to join your Rebel friends. More waves of Stormtroopers will come through the door ahead of you (including the Imperial Officer, who requires two hits to kill). Continue into the hallway into a ambush (a Stormtrooper and a Shuttle Pilot). Kill the Stormies ahead of you and let your allies pass. Build the bridge for C-3P0 (we have to assist him again) and move on.

Once you have wiped out the remaining Stormies, turn right into the last hallway. Build another bridge for 3P0 and go on to the end of the hallway. There are three escape pods, one of which can only be opened by a Protocol droid. However, the Protocol droid panel is behind a shield, so we'll have to figure out how to get rid of it. Destroy the box to reveal a Astromech droid panel, have R2 activate it to open the escape pod. Two Beach Troopers are in here, kill them before they notice you. Pull the lever at the end of the pod, then exit it and have R2 open the next pod on your left. Pull that lever. Now that both levers have been pulled, the shield will go up, allowing 3P0 to open the last pod. Have R2 climb inside and operate the Astromech droid panel at the end of the pod. Consider this level over!
