The game was well received and spawned a new franchise: the Jedi Knight games. LucasArts contributed to this trend with the 1995 release of Star Wars: Dark Forces, a first person shooter that successfully transplanted the Doom formula to a Star Wars setting.

Another game that utilised the new technology of the CD-ROM drive was 1993's Day of the Tentacle, the first LucasArts adventure game to have a full spoken soundtrack available on the game's release rather than relying on text.Īfter the unprecedented success of id Software's Doom the PC gaming market shifted towards production of three dimensional first person shooters. The CD-ROM-only Star Wars game Rebel Assault became one of the biggest successes of the company and was considered a killer app for CD-ROM drives in the early 1990s. The first in-house development was the space combat simulator X-Wing, developed by Larry Holland's team, which went on to spawn a successful series.

and LucasArts became the official name of the former Games Division.Įven though LucasArts had created games based on other Lucasfilm properties before ( Labyrinth, Indiana Jones), they didn't use the most promising Lucasfilm license until the early 1990s: Star Wars action games began appearing on the Nintendo consoles, but were developed by other companies for LucasArts. Later ILM and Skywalker Sound were consolidated in Lucas Digital Ltd. In 1990, in a reorganization of the Lucas companies, the Games Division of Lucasfilm became part of the newly created LucasArts Entertainment Company, together with Industrial Light & Magic and Skywalker Sound. The WW2 Air Combat Trilogy, as it was later called, was created by Lawrence Holland's team, who later founded their own company in Totally Games. In 1988, Battlehawks 1942 was released, later followed by Their Finest Hour and Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe. The company also started producing military simulation games, the first of which were the naval simulations PHM Pegasus and Strike Fleet. Amongst the early LucasArts classics was the much-loved Monkey Island (later followed by three sequels), an adventure game notable for the quality of its comedic script, the absurd solutions to many of its puzzles and the invulnerability of its protagonist, which was quite an innovation in a genre where choosing the wrong thing to say could often result in instant death. It was followed by more adventures of high quality and in the following years Lucasfilm built a reputation for producing the best games of the genre. In 1987, the adventure game Maniac Mansion was released, which effectively spawned the subgenre of point-and-click adventure games.
