Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game (D6)
Scoundrel's Luck
"Never tell me the odds!"
It started as a simple planetfall on Ord Mantell for some rest and relaxation. Han wanted to gamble his reward money into a sum large enough to pay off Jabba the Hutt. Leia preferred more sophisticated entertainment.
But now the princess is missing, and a knee-high Droid is challenging the smuggler to a transgalactic race — with Leia's life as the prize! What will Han do?
Han Solo — mercenary smuggler, reluctant hero, and pilot extraordinaire — stars in this fast-paced tale of quick wits and tough decisions. You'll choose his best options and fight his opponents.
Sometimes logic is your best tool as you analyze the situation as Han sees it. Sometimes you just have to trust his phenomenal flying skills. And sometimes Han's destiny must be left to luck itself!
Scoundrel's Luck is an 80-page solo adventure featuring:
* An interactive system that emphasizes thought-provoking decisions.
* Longer story segments which allow for rich detail and characterization.
* Movie-like intensity and focus.
* A hidden game system that does what no other solitaire adventure can — it puts you so completely in the hero's world, thoughts, and feelings that you can almost hear the sizzle of blaster bolts as they whiz by.
It's a novel — but you decide the course of the story!
It's a game — but you interact with every twist to determine what happens!

A bit of fun. Writing is not brilliant and I have played better written (non-Star Wars) stories using this format. If it wasn't Star Wars then I think that it would have got 2 stars.
