Continuity
In the puzzle "Episode III: Revenge of the Sith," a clue quotes Padmé as saying, "So this is how democracy dies…." This is, however, a misquote, as she actually says, "So this is how liberty dies…."[3] In a later puzzle, "Naboo," the correct version of the quote appears as an answer.
In the puzzle "The Clone Wars," Suu Lawquane is used in a clue as an example of a widow. This may imply that the biological father of Shaeeah and Jek was married to Suu and died or is incorrectly stating that Cut Lawquane died.
The puzzle "Aliens of the Galaxy" contains a clue which identifies Taun We as a cloning scientist. She really was an administrative aide.[4]
In the puzzle "Scum and Villainy," a clue indicates that Vi Moradi is a Rebel agent on Batuu. In reality, Moradi is an agent for the Resistance.
The puzzle "Emperor Palpatine" incorrectly states in a clue that Darth Sidious stabs Eeth Koth. Koth was actually killed by Darth Vader.[5] This clue could be referring to the Duel in Palpatine's office depicted in Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith in which Agen Kolar, another Iridonian Zabrak Jedi, was slain by Sidious.[3]
The puzzle "Lando Calrissian and Bespin" contains a clue answered with the statue Beldon's Eye, which appeared in Star Wars: Episode V The Empire Strikes Back and was identified in the Star Wars Legends continuity. Its appearance in the puzzle is its first mention in canon.
The book contains several misspellings. In the puzzle "Episode VIII: The Last Jedi," a clue misspells uneti tree as "unati tree." In the puzzle "Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker," Vicrul, one of the Knights of Ren, is misspelled as "Vikrul." In the puzzle "Ahsoka's Adventures," the name Garazeb Orrelios is misspelled as "Orellios."
