5 must have apps for Star Wars fans
- 9 years ago
This is, The Force Awakens is nearly here… Please JJ don´t let us down, we are counting on you to make the movie that the 40 something year-old Star Wars fans who grew up with the franchise will enjoy as much as those Jar Jar loving tweens…
Yes, it seems everyone is picking a side for Star Wars: The Force Awakens at the moment - even Google wants to know if you are turning to the light or the dark side. And we cannot escape the force, so we are here to bring you the five best app from a Galaxy far, far away.
Confusingly one must have app for Star Wars fans is just called Star Wars – really, did they not think that that may cause some confusion. Basically this app is a portal for fans, providing them with all the relevant information they could want to know. Its an official Disney app, so it gives access to all of the latest news, multimedia content, events, and important announcements related to Star Wars. It also includes some multimedia nonsense like GIF's, emojis, famous sounds effects, selfie options, and augmented reality games... everything a fan could want.
I do not know why, the venn diagram of Star Wars fans and gamers seems to be an almost perfect circle. So, if you are looking for a game to supplement your Force Awakening, you could do far worse than Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes – a turn based, strategy RPG that lets you control all of your favorite characters from the series. Create your team of light or dark side characters, level them up, and lead them in battle. Each character has their own skills, so you have to plan your strategies carefully – and not just place all your hopes on that Sith Lord… they aren’t very reliable.
We've all dreamed of mastering the force. But while manipulating other to our will and turning the lights off without getting out of bed may be on the list of possible bonuses – most of us just want a lightsaber. While it may not be quite the same, you can now enjoy playing with this iconic weapon on your mobile phone. There are many of these apps out there, but the best we found is Lightsaber – honestly, naming creativity of these star wars apps. Lightsaber activates with a flash, vibration, and sound, and will also make the iconic wwwoowwwvve-kkkkzzzzzz sound when you wave it about – it’s even possible to customize your saber. Best of all, you can dual with your friends via Bluetooth. The slightly more imaginatively named Force Saber of Light is out there for all you dark side android users.
A true fan of Star Wars must know EVERYTHING about the franchise. Everything. And ideal be prepared to bore you with it in great detail. This even includes the rumor that Jar Jar Binks is actually a powerful Sith Master, and that Mace Windu’s purple light saber was a personal request from Samuel L. Jackson to George Lucas. If you NEED all this trivia, and more, then you have to download the Star Wars Wikia application, a comprehensive source of wisdom created by its huge community. It even includes the extended universe fiction – making it the perfect way to resolve any Star Wars arguments with friends.
If you enjoyed the Star Wars but feel you could make some scenes better, then you want Star Wars Scene Maker. This app allows you to create your own Star Wars diorama, filled with the characters, vehicles, weapons, items, and landscapes that you think are necessary. You can even at some phrases, and control the camera movement. That’s right, you can relive the battle of Endor without Ewoks.
Right, you are now ready for the Force Awakens. I hope you have your tickets… apparently its quite popular. Next week we are back with our five favorite holiday apps, I will see you then!
