Not so long ago in our own galaxy

Star Wars is one of those rare franchises that appeals to every age group. Whether you're looking for a more intense single-player experience or a silly game to play with others you can find plenty of fun iOS games featuring our favorite characters from a galaxy far, far away. Though remember that none are currently on Apple Arcade.

If you're only going to play one of these games, I suggest you make it Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes. This is an evolving game that includes characters from the original, prequel, and sequel trilogies. As you play you'll unlock classic characters, defeat iconic bosses, and level up your squad.

If you want a more silly take on your favorite movies, you can't go wrong with LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga. This actually came out before the sequel trilogy was made, so it doesn't include the stories or characters surrounding The Force Awakens, The Last Jedi, or The Rise of Skywalker. However, it is one of the silliest and most fun ways to relive the prequel and original series.

Lastly, it would be remiss not to mention Knights of the Old Republic. This was a breakthrough game back when it was released in 2003 and is often hailed as the best Star Wars game of all time. It allows players to make decisions that lead their characters to either the light side or the dark side of the Force. The choices are yours to make.
