Star Wars simply hasn't received enough promotion* yet, so thankfully, with just hours to go until we can finally see The Force Awakens, Google has created an interactive Star Wars game that lets you use your phone as a Lightsaber. Seriously.
Lightsaber Escape puts you into the shoes of a Jedi, wandering a hostile ship tasked with fighting off hordes of stormtroopers. It's pretty much like being in the films, where you need to use your saber to deflect laser shots back at your assailants.
The Forcetouch is strong
The game is hugely impressive on a technical level too. There's no app to download – it all works in the web browser. All you need is a Mac or PC running Chrome, Firefox, Safari (Mac only) or Edge/IE11 (Windows).
You'll also need at least a 2GHz Intel Core i5 processor or equivalent, 4GB of RAM, and a dedicated Nvidia GeForce 8600 GT graphics card or equivalent.
Phone-wise, the lightsaber controls work with iPhones 5, 6, 6+, 6S, and 6S+ (Google's FAQ page doesn't mention the 5S – we're not sure if this is an oversight or a genuine technical distinction).
On Android it should work on the Nexus 4, 5, 6, 5X and 6P, the Galaxy S4, S5, S6 and S6 Edge, and Galaxy Note 3 and 4, and the Moto 2. However in our early tests a few of us simply couldn't connect to our computer to play it.
