Find a way into Jabba's Palace.

[Enter Jabba's Palace.]

Jundland Wastes, Jabba's Palace

Follow the markers up towards the large doorway at the base of Jabba's Palace so that R2-D2 can solve the Astromech Socket on the righthand side of it. After a moment the marker to start the level will appear next to the doorbell.

[Escort Chewbacca through Jabba's Palace.]

Follow the Gamorrean Palace Guard up the steps on the right. He'll walk across a trap filled floor safely so if you keep right behind him you'll be safe too.

Once you're over the floor continue onwards down some steps and across to a room with a large pit over which Leia can grapple. On the other side use Leia's Bounty Hunter gun to shoot the Gold LEGO on the right until it explodes. Then pull the lever to lower the platform so that Chewbacca can join Leia over there and they can stand on both buttons.

[Gain access to the Throne Room.]

Go down the steps and take a left towards the throne room. A couple of guards will come out of a side door carrying some stuff but you won't be able to do anything with it just yet. Instead go through the door on the right (to the south) where there are some people imprisoned. Have Chewbacca use his Scoundrel Opportunity to shoot object connected to the purple wires on the western wall to free them.

Go back out into the corridor and you'll find the item the guards brought out is now smashable (and they've gone). Smash it to build two bars on either side of the door. Chewbacca will need the moveable platform to reach his bar but Leia can grapple up to hers.

After activating both bars at the same time go through the door and down the tunnel to the throne room.

[Rescue Han.]

Walk over towards the frozen Han and smash the crates on the left side to find a power cell you can plug in on the wall nearby to release him.

[Reach the Throne Room.]

Now we switch over to Luke. Luke has no need to go through the spike trap floor corridor or be stealthy, he can just use blow the turret out of the way by detonating the barrels and go straight through.

The bridge over the gap will be raised so you can't go that way this time, instead approach the large door and use the Force on the object in the bottom left corner to release some bricks you can use to build a couple of buttons that Luke and Bib Fortuna can stand on. Or you can go down into the pit, stack some crates, lightsaber through a wall, and then go up a hidden passage.

Continue through to another large door with two buttons in front of it. This one isn't that simple so you'll need to smash the nearby glowing objects and build either a Jabba Hologram or a GNK Droid Switch. If you build the hologram you can now open the door by standing on the two buttons.

The throne room door itself needs a bit of Force to open and then it's a quick walk down to meet up with Jabba himself.

[Defeat the Rancor!]

Immediately dodge out of the way of the Rancor's charge attack and then start walking around the room making sure to avoid his rock throws. After he does a pound attack you can run in and start wailing on him with your bone or your axe.

The Rancor will charge off into the wall and get stuck, a perfect time for hitting him. Struggle out of his grip if he grabs you and keep on attacking until he's at about a quarter health.

Once you get to that point a gate in the back will open. Run in there and press the button as the Rancor stands beneath the gate to complete the level. Or just keep on attacking him until he runs out of health, you get a slightly longer cutscene if you do it that way.
