Star Wars: Jedi Challenges AR Headset with Lightsaber Controller and Tracking Beacon (Lenovo AR-7561N)
- Star Wars: Jedi Challenge review.PROS:-No cords to watch out for.-Adjustable head straps; can adjust before or after putting the headset on.-Adjustable case that fits my phone perfectly and keeps it in place during head movement.-The Rubber Dome of the light source keeps you from breaking it if you accidentally step on it.-The lightsaber is well designed, and the rubber grips integrated into the look. You can comfortably hold it with one or two hands.CONS:Eye strain after a few hours of gameplay. Would have loved to keep going but needed to take a break.There are no options to purchase a Star Wars: Jedi Challenge Game package with different styles of lightsabers.Details:First, about the Game.The game contains 3 modes of play.- Holochess (Turn-based Board game with creatures and hit-points)- Strategy (Defender style gameplay where you place Structures and command troops)- CombatEach Mode of play has at least 3 levels of play (At least in the first three worlds I played so far).Cool in-game Galaxy type interface where you click on different worlds to access the 3 Different Game modes.You need to complete all Trials of combats to move on to the next world (but do not need to complete the Holochess or strategy game to unlock a new world)Each time you complete some levels, you also Gain new abilities (Combat), Creatures (Holochess), upgrade/unlock troops/Structures (Strategy). I find that games where you earn new abilities based on merit, add more dimensions of play; giving you more options on how you want to play, and gives you a higher level of accomplishment when you win.I found the combat simulation game a lot of fun and challenging. It starts out with defending yourself against some droids using your skills with a lightsaber, reflecting laser fire, and striking them down when they wander into range. The force feedback (vibrations) of the lightsaber is timed to really make you feel like you hit something, and you can take them out piece by piece. Later levels add higher level droids (including shielded ones), Stormtroopers, Snipers, etc (note, I have only reached world 2 before writing this review). Here is a hint…Don’t just block the laser fire, hit it back at the shooter.There are also navigation buttons on the headgear.-The first button takes you to the settings screen where you can easily check your progress or take a shortcut to your favorite (completed) fight. I noticed on this screen, there seem to be ADDITIONAL trials of combat stages (Not yet unlocked for me ☺, but I will get there). There also seems to be different colors you can unlock for the lightsaber.There is also a settings menu which allows you to control the phone’s volume and enabling/disabling the 3D sound option (for headphones).-The second button is a select button. Instead of pressing the button on the lightsaber, you can move your head to have the in-game cursor line up with an option and press this button.-The third button is a Back button. Allowing you to quickly back out of menus.The Package:The Equipment came well packed and labeled. The Package contained iPhone connector (but I have a Motorola Z2 Play), UBS-C cables (Works Great with my Motorola Z2 Play), and Micro USB cables, to connect any type of phone to the headset. There was also a bag to hold the equipment because you will never be able to remember how it came in the box to put it back☺, and it keeps everything together. Everything came already charged enough to play without getting low battery warning messages.Setup was pretty easy with lots of stickers and instructions. Once you download the game app and launch it; the game guides you through the phone setup and pairing it with the lightsaber and inserting the phone into the headgear.Overall, GREAT GAME WITH HOURS if not Days of gameplay. Well worth the price and Very entertaining. It’s like immersing yourself in the role of a Jedi and controlling the battle seen in a movie.
- We try and charge this after each use so it will be ready without issue the next time we want to use it. We also set aside an old phone we aren’t using specifically for this game. It sits in the box with the game so my phone doesn’t have to be used if the kids want to play.The first few times I set this up it was a hassle. Hard to get it working and I have to do it for my kids. The game play was initially difficult to navigate. The fact that the phone we use is not really on the recommended list probably contributed to this as the view window is off a little making some things hard to see.After using it for a while and learning set up we love the game though. After a bit of practice it is t hard to work anymore and the fights are fun as are the other two settings you can use.Pros: train like a Jedi or with. The graphics are great. Watching someone else play is hilarious It’s just plain fun.Cons: has to be dark to play. Initially learning setup Charging batteries Our phone overheats and shuts down because ventilation isn’t great. I find the visor heavy and it pulls my face into unnaturally uncomfortable shapes Headaches if play to long. There is a suggested time limit per person, which is t very long but probably a good idea to observe. If you are playing with a group, alternating players that helps?Would totally get a second one as I find the pros out weigh the cons. Just limit your game play and make sure you charge everything afterwards.
- So to start I must say that the limited time that we got to play with our AR headset with it working properly, it was a blast. However, we encountered a couple of crippling problems that we *hope* Lenovo addresses in short order. So we recently upgraded our phones to the Galaxy S10+, up from the S7, nice big change for us. So we were thinking, hey, we can use one of the S7\'s as a dedicated gaming phone for the AR game. So we got it started up, figured out how everything is supposed to go, (which takes a bit of work), and we were able to enjoy the beginning of the game for around I\'d guess 10 minutes, and then the S7 starts critically overheating and turns itself off. Game over. So we were bummed, but hey, it\'s an older phone, so I wasn\'t terribly shocked. So I download the software on the new S10+ thinking we are going to have an epic gaming time, but then I am configuring the game on the phone and they don\'t have an aspect ratio for the S10 at all! Apparently it\'s too new of a device so they don\'t have the software updated for that yet. So I picked the next closest thing to it that matched the part of the screen as best as possible, and long story short... It worked very poorly, then not at all. So for the 10 minute bursts of fun our family gets to enjoy with this AR device, I give it 2 stars. When they update their software to accommodate the new tech, I will update the review and probably give it 5 stars. But til then BEWARE: IF YOUR PHONE IS OLDER, IT WILL OVERHEAT. AND IF IT\'S TOO NEW, YOU\'RE EQUALLY OUT OF LUCK.P.S. The room must be almost movie theater dark for the game to work ideally, and the headset is a bit heavy, comfortable enough, but heavy. Also plan on having 6 square feet for play space, 4 sq ft would be too little unless you have a real small child playing. Lastly the lightsaber is awesome though and the game seems well made.
- Great present for Star Wars fan.Pros: really fun when you start and play. Would advise for anyone 10 or youngerCons: you will get bored with it within a week of over 10 years old
- This is like my favorite birthday gift for boys who want to play Jedi knight. I have bought quite a few sets over the years. I heard nothing but praise from the parents, they all enjoyed it. But sadly, the phones are getting too big to fit in or have a different usb port... which is very disappointing, I had to return one because they cant use it with their phones.
