Star Wars Saga (Hardcore)
The KnowJitsu Quiz Universe — Complete Guide
Not Just a Quiz. A Test of Mastery.
Anyone can name the main characters. Anyone can identify Darth Vader by his breathing. The KnowJitsu Star Wars Saga series is not built for anyone. It is built for fans who have watched the films more than once, who know the difference between a Neimoidian and a Muun, who could tell you what Watto's business model was and why it mattered to the plot.
This is the Star Wars Saga (Hardcore) series — hundreds of quiz packs spread across the complete nine-film saga, organised by trilogy and episode, structured into progressive difficulty zones. It is the most detailed Star Wars quiz experience available online.
How It Is Structured
The series is built as a three-level hierarchy: Trilogy → Episode → Zone. Each of the nine saga films has its own dedicated episode section. Within each episode, quiz packs are grouped into numbered zones — Zone 1 being the most accessible, Zone 5 and beyond reserved for genuine specialists.
Each zone contains multiple quiz packs, and each pack targets a specific aspect of that film: a character, a location, a battle, a piece of lore, a faction, a vehicle. The structure means you can start broad — testing your general knowledge of A New Hope — and drill progressively deeper until you are answering questions about Jedi Council deliberations or the geopolitics of the Galactic Senate.
The Prequel Trilogy
The prequels are where the lore runs deepest. The politics of the dying Republic, the corruption of the Jedi Order, the manipulation of a young man with extraordinary gifts — The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones, and Revenge of the Sith reward careful viewers who pay attention to the machinery behind the story.
Episode I: The Phantom Menace
The opening of the saga is richer than its reputation suggests. KnowJitsu's Episode I packs begin with the fundamentals — Phantom Menace: The Basics, Anakin's Tatooine Childhood, The Sith Apprentice — and escalate through five zones to cover material most fans have never considered closely.
Zone 2 asks about the mechanics of the Boonta Eve Classic podrace, the creatures native to Naboo's core, and the droids of the Trade Federation fleet. Zone 3 covers the procedural detail of the Galactic Senate, Watto's Junkyard Deals, and the biology and theology of midichlorians. Zone 4 enters specialist territory: Minor Characters of Mos Espa, Handmaids and Decoys, the specific starships of Episode I. By Zone 5, you are deep in Naboo geography and the political architecture of a galaxy on the verge of collapse.
The Phantom Menace section alone contains more quiz questions than most entire Star Wars quiz sites.
Episode II: Attack of the Clones
The second prequel film is the galaxy's political thriller — a story about assassination, clone armies, and the slow strangulation of democracy. KnowJitsu's Episode II packs cover the love story on Naboo, the mystery of Kamino, the Geonosian arena, and the birth of the clone army that would eventually destroy the Republic it was built to protect.
Episode III: Revenge of the Sith
The fall. Order 66. The duel on Mustafar. No Star Wars film is more studied or more emotionally dense. KnowJitsu's Episode III packs test whether you know the full sequence: which Jedi were killed where, how Palpatine manipulated the Senate into giving him emergency powers, what the exact nature of Anakin's deal with the dark side was. This is the section where casual fans hit their ceiling and genuine fans find their level.
The Original Trilogy
The foundation of everything. For many fans, Episodes IV, V, and VI are not just three films — they are the cultural bedrock against which all subsequent Star Wars is measured. KnowJitsu's Original Trilogy sections cover them with the same structural depth as the prequels: progressive zones, targeted packs, no shortcuts.
Episode IV: A New Hope
The film that started it all. Zone 1 covers the obvious: the Force, the Death Star, the Rebel Alliance. Deeper zones address the details that defined the universe: the specific mechanics of the trench run, the hierarchy of the Imperial Navy, the Mos Eisley cantina and its clientele, the design language of early lightsabers, the protocol and psychology of R2-D2 and C-3PO's relationship. A New Hope is the most familiar film in the saga — and KnowJitsu's coverage reveals how much of it most viewers have never properly examined.
Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back
Widely regarded as the finest Star Wars film and one of the best sequels ever made, The Empire Strikes Back introduced the franchise's most important revelation and its most complex villain. KnowJitsu's Episode V packs cover the Battle of Hoth in operational detail, the bounty hunters summoned by Vader, the ecology and culture of Dagobah, the architecture of Cloud City, and the full weight of what the Bespin revelation means for the entire saga.
Episode VI: Return of the Jedi
The resolution. The Sarlacc pit. The Ewoks. The second Death Star. The throne room confrontation between Luke, Vader, and Palpatine that the entire saga had been building toward. KnowJitsu's Episode VI packs test knowledge of the Rebel Alliance's tactical planning, the social structure of Endor, and the precise nature of Anakin Skywalker's redemption — what it means within the Force mythology, and what it costs.
The Sequel Trilogy
The most debated trilogy in the franchise's history. Whatever your view of the creative choices made across Episodes VII, VIII, and IX, the films are rich with detail — new planets, new factions, new characters, and the unresolved threads of the Skywalker legacy.
Episode VII: The Force Awakens
The return of the saga introduced Jakku, the First Order, Rey, Finn, Poe Dameron, and Kylo Ren — and asked what the Rebellion's victory in Episode VI had actually achieved. KnowJitsu's packs cover the Resistance, Starkiller Base, the political structure of the New Republic, and the specific character history of Ben Solo's fall to the dark side.
Episode VIII: The Last Jedi
The most divisive instalment. The Last Jedi deliberately subverted expectations about legacy, heroism, and the Force. Its quiz coverage tests whether you engaged with what the film was actually doing — the siege of Crait, the mirror cave on Ahch-To, the throne room fight that changed the sequel trilogy's trajectory, and Yoda's lesson about failure as a teacher.
Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker
The conclusion of the saga and the most lore-dense of the sequel films — Exegol, the Sith Eternal fleet, Palpatine's return, and the final fates of the characters who had carried the story across three trilogies. KnowJitsu's Episode IX packs test knowledge of the specific plot mechanics and the expanded context that ties the sequel trilogy to the larger arc of the Skywalker Saga.
What Makes This "Hardcore"
The word is in the title for a reason. Every section of the KnowJitsu Star Wars series is designed to separate people who watched the films from people who truly know them. The early zones in each episode are welcoming — they establish the foundation. But the later zones go to places that require real engagement with the material:
- The political procedures of the Galactic Senate and how Palpatine exploited them
- The minor characters of Mos Espa — the people in the background who made Tatooine feel like a real place
- The handmaid decoy system Padmé used, how it worked, and which characters played which roles
- The specific creatures, factions, and starship classes that most viewers register subconsciously but could not name
- The theological and philosophical underpinning of the Jedi Code and how it contributed to the Order's failure
- The geography, architecture, and political history of worlds that appeared briefly but were built in full
These questions are not designed to trick you. They are designed to find the edge of what you actually know.
How Progression Works
KnowJitsu uses a multi-star scoring system. Complete a quiz pack and you progress to the next. Score higher on a repeat attempt and you earn additional stars, reflecting genuine improvement rather than a lucky first run. XP accumulates across every quiz you complete, tracking your total mastery of the saga.
Hints are available when you are stuck — earned through play, never purchased. The platform is free to use, supported by advertising, with no paywalls on any quiz content.
Start Where You Are
You do not need to begin at Episode I. Every episode section is independently accessible. If your strongest area is the Original Trilogy, start there. If you want to test how much of the prequels you actually retained, begin with The Phantom Menace basics and see how far you get before the questions outpace your memory.
The quiz that reveals where your knowledge ends is more valuable than the ones that confirm what you already know.
