Trivial Pursuit Star Wars Classic Trilogy Edition A couple hours ago, on a bedroom floor not far away How much do YOU know about Star Wars then? Pursuit Of The Force.

I was about to turn 6 years old when my sister Liz took me to the movie theater to go see a little movie called Star Wars in 1977. From the moment that mammoth sized Star Destroyer passed overhead firing turbolasers at a fleeing Corellian Corvette I was absolutely hooked.

I was one of George Lucas' primary target audiences, young kids (especially boys) who swallowed his massive space epic whole and wanted to live it. Over the years I have watched the original trilogy so much that there comes a point where I can almost recite, verbatim, the exact dialogue from almost any part of the original trilogy. If one plays a 5 second segment of John Williams' awesome musical score it's a pretty good bet I can tell you not only which movie that music was featured in but specifically what portion of the movie it was happening. Yes.I am one of them. A major Star Wars geek with years of Jedi-like knowledge under my belt.

This may also be one of the primary reasons it took me so long to find a woman willing to marry me. But I digress. In 1998, on the cusp of the release of Episode 1: The Phantom Menace, Parker Brothers released an original trilogy Trivial Pursuit edition, specifically aimed at super-dorks like me who enjoyed this sprawling sci-fi space opera.

I couldn't find a date but I could tell you all about the various weapons systems on an AT-AT, how many rivets were used in the construction of Princess Leia's armored bikini, and what Porkins probably ate for dinner before his final battle (I'm thinking whole hog pit-cooked barbecue).

Doing so gets you a 'piece of pie', specifically a little cheese wedged shape of plastic that you stick into your playing piece. When all 6 categories are answered and all 6 pie pieces are placed in your token you proceed to the middle to answer one final question.

Whoever does this first wins. The Gameboard This edition of Trivial Pursuit is basically the same as any other TP gameboard in existence. The primary difference is that in lieu of retro sketches of various inventions, devices, or people, here we have Star Wars themed pictures with a big ole honkin' Rebel Alliance icon in the middle. It's a pretty board, all things considered. Image courtesy of Charles Smith/BGG The Pieces If this game has one thing going for it, it is definitely the pieces. The one major disappointment is that there are only provisions for up to 4 players, whereas with standard Trivial Pursuit 6 can usually play. The pieces depict the four major players in the original trilogy; Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia (not in her armored bikini), and Han Solo.
