Why Did We Never Get A Star Wars Point & Click Adventure From Lucasarts?


Indiana Jones had itself two great point & click adventures from Lucasarts, why not Star Wars? That always bothered me. I would have played the crap out of that back in the day. Hell, I’d play the crap out of it today.

The above video is listed as ‘leaked’ Lucasarts footage, it’s totally not, but it’s still awesome to watch and dream of the possibilities of what could have been once upon a time.

It’s actually the work of Jacob Janerka from Perth who is currently working on his own game, Paradigm, which also looks really interesting.

But after watching the above video I’m really mourning that lost opportunity: a point & click game in the Star Wars universe. Seriously: why didn’t someone just make that in the 90s? WHY?
