Feral Interactive has released the US$29.99 action-adventure game LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars for the Mac. It's developed by TT Games and LucasArts.

Here's how the game is described: "LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars is a tongue-in-cheek take on the entire Clone Wars era that recreates scenes from the hit animated television show, Star Wars: The Clone Wars, as well as fan-favorite moments from the theatrical Star Wars saga. Featuring 16 different star systems, 32 story-based missions, 48 bonus levels and over 100 playable characters, this is the biggest LEGO Star Wars video game to date. 

"Players will combat Separatist forces aboard the massive battleship the Resolute, blast off in their favorite ships in multi-layered space battles, and destroy hundreds of droids in strategic ground battles new to the series. Whether Padawan or Jedi Master, players of all skill levels can take on the Sith in single player mode, or with their friends and family during drop in/drop out co-operative play.

"The game features a brand new customizable Arcade Mode offering unique head-to-head combat. Players will also discover a myriad of all-new character abilities, such as Squad Command, Lightsaber Slicing, Lightsaber Jumps, long-distance Jedi Attacks and Grapple Tie-Ups. All gameplay modes can now be accessed from a new, easy-to-navigate hub that now lets users engage in multi-ship space battles. 

LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars is available online today for direct download from a variety of digital partner sites worldwide including feralinteractive.com and the Mac App Store. It is also available to purchase in box form now through Feral’s online store (http://www.feralinteractive.com).
