Yoda Stories - A Forgotten Game for Star Wars Fans

I still remember around 10 years ago, when I was playing a simple Star Wars themed adventure game named Yoda Stories. I was still using Windows 95 when playing this game and for that time, this game was really great! Nice graphics, sound and the most important, it's really addictive. I always spent around 1-2 hours everyday playing this game after school and never got bored with this game.

The game itself takes place around episode 5 (Empire Strikes Back), when Luke was being trained by Jedi master Yoda. In the game, you will find almost infinite adventures, because maps and the quests are generated randomly. You can also change the map size for a longer gameplay.
The missions are actually simple puzzles, from finding a tool, repairing a ship, moving a block to rescuing a rebel fellow. Whenever one mission is solved, the result of that mission (whether it's a keycard, hydrospanner, bomb, etc.) will be useful in completing the next mission. After all small missions are completed, there will be a final mission which takes longer to complete. The gameplay are designed in simple way but very creative and exciting, especially for a Star Wars fan.
