What I Liked
1. It seems like Omega can quickly adapt, learn, and pick up the attributes of people she meets, she’s done it with the Bad Batch and now she has picked up an eye for finding treasure. This could be very useful for Omega going forward.
2. I love the world where the Batch and Phee have gone to find the treasure. It’s different, it’s dark and dull, and the lack of color truly makes it eery. I would love to visit more planets like this throughout the Star Wars universe.
3. The Batch and Phee simply have to do tasks to enter the cave to find the treasure. I immediately thought of all the time that I explored, did tasks, and trials throughout my playthrough of Jedi Fallen Order, how I got lost for ages in a single world.
4. Having a clone like Wrecker is simply amazing. Each time he tanks shots goes head-to-head with a giant monster or fights a Rancor it’s just magical. Wrecker is one fine addition to the Star Wars mythos.
What I Disliked
Nothing to report this week.
Favorite Moment
My favorite moment would simply be the Batch and Phee finding the treasure and unwillingly releasing a giant mech Zillobeast. While they are inside the mech, they get attacked by another creature that is trying to kill them.
Standout Character
Honestly, this was hard to choose this week so I’m going to give it to Wrecker. Seeing him fighting huge monsters because of his size and enhanced ability is truly spectacular.
Verdict
Overall a really solid and fun episode with an action-packed ending. I love the world that we got introduced to because of how dull, and out of color it was. I love the fact we got to see a mech Zillobeast in action too.
Rating: 9.2/10
