Escape from Jakku

Escape from Jakku

By Rowan

When you are playing Escape from Jakku it is like you are actually inside the Millennium Falcon and shooting at the Tie First Order Fighters (Tie FO Fighters).  The feeling of being inside the Millennium Falcon is exciting.  During the first few times you play, the game is hard, however after every game it becomes easier.  

Escape from Jakku is a fun electronic game that requires batteries.  In the game, you set up and you try to knock off  three Tie FO Fighters using the Millennium Falcon.  The hard part is that you don't want the Tie Fighters to knock you off the game. There's a throttle that you you move forward and backward so that you don't get hit by Tie fighters.  The throttle is also used to knock off the Tie FO Fighters.

The goal of the game is to knock off all the Tie fighters without the Millennium Falcon being knocked off. You can replace the Millennium Falcon with other ships that will work in the game as well and there's a imperial one that will work, in case you want to play The Empire, which has a different goal.

There are two main settings the rebel and First Order. The First Order setting makes TIE fighter sounds, while the rebel setting makes Millennium Falcon sounds. You can make the rebel setting make X-Wing sounds by doing this: hold the red button down on the throttle and then put the setting on rebel without letting go of the red button and then when you press it it will make X-Wing sounds. To make different TIE fighter sounds you do the same thing except you put the setting to First Order.  

Escape from Jakku may seem complicated, but it is so thrilling it is worth figuring out how to play.  Plus, the game comes with instructions and every time you play it becomes easier.
