A Royal Rescue
After escaping from the sea monsters, you will arrive at Theed on planet Naboo. Although exploring this location is optional, it is recommended to do so.
To advance in the main story, you need to reach the blue circle.
Transport to Coruscant
On your way to another part of the city, you will face droids. Use your lightsaber to deflect their projectiles and throw it at them to defeat them easily.
You will be tasked with escorting Queen Amidala. Follow her and defeat the droids along the way. The destination is the hangar with the transport ship that you will use for the escape. Defeat the last group of droids and reach the blue circle next to one of the ships.
The Leaking Hyperdrive
You are now in outer space and your objective is to make an emergency landing on Mos Espa.
Land on the planet, avoiding the red danger zones. When the landing field icon appears, confirm that you want to land.
In Mos Espa, you need to gather information on how to fix the hyperdrive. Talk to the NPCs marked with an exclamation mark while crossing the city. One of the characters will tell you to visit Watoo.
Enter the building marked by the game and stand in the blue circle to make progress.
Off to the Races!
Your new destination is the Mos Espa Grand Arena, located in the western part of the city. Stand in the blue circle at the entrance to the arena to start The Boonta Eve Classic level.
The Boonta Eve Classic – challenges
This level has three challenges:
The Boonta Eve Classic – walkthrough
To complete this level, you must win a race consisting of 3 laps. The first challenge is “Eat My Exhaust!” which requires you to beat the lap time record. Make sure to run into the boost platforms and avoid indestructible obstacles to complete this challenge easily. The second challenge is “It’s SKYWALKER!” which requires you to use the service ramp on the third lap. You can find the ramp in the middle of the track and it’s worth using during other laps too as there is a boosting platform at the top. The third challenge is “Take Over” and requires you to use 3 take over platforms during a single lap. There are more platforms than required, but make sure to drive over them correctly.
During the race, it’s important to remember that the controls are very responsive, so move left or right only slightly to avoid overdoing the turn. Some obstacles are indestructible, so avoid hitting them. However, small obstacles are destructible and can even drop studs. There are also boost platforms on the track, so drive over as many as possible to get a temporary boost and catch up to the other contestants.
Expect some problems on laps 2 and 3, where you must complete a simple mini-game. Aim the crosshair at the damaged part to make an icon for repairing the pod appear.
If you don’t finish the race first, you will have to repeat it. So, make sure to win the race to complete the level and advance to the next part of the Episode.
