Obi Wan, you're my only hope.

Except this time, it's R2D2 who's in trouble....

We fondly recall rainy afternoons "playing" Trouble. Of course, what we really mean is that we remember a game in which everyone who didn't win got angry at everyone else for sending their pieces back to home just before they got them into position to score. When we tired of this, we moved on to deep, scientific inquiries into the nature of the mystical Pop-o-Matic. What made the popping sound? How much pressure could the dome handle before it exploded? Ah memories...

Of course, we certainly weren't the first to play the game. In fact, Trouble is based upon a game from ancient India called Pachisi (aka Parcheesi). Records of people playing the game go back to at least the 4th century AD. There are even stories of emperors and princes playing the game with real people as the game pieces. This is all fine and wonderful but we're pretty sure that they didn't have the Pop-o-Matic back then.

Now, in the 21st century, the classic race around the board and make everyone angry game that has enraged people for thousands of years has received a Star Wars makeover. Based on the characters from the Clone Wars, you play as Sith, Droid, or Jedi (Obi-Wan or Anakin) and race around the board to save or capture R2D2. The Pop-o-Matic makes sounds just like R2D2 when you press on the dome. Undoubtedly, this will lead to a new generation of scientific exploration.
