- Yoda as he and the Jedi Council team up with the Gungans

Star Wars Episode 1 The Ultimate Menace is a video game that is the alternate of Star Wars Episode 1 The Phantom Menace. Everything is the same up until Qui-Gon Jinn's first encounter with Darth Maul. Then you play as members of the Jedi Council and team up with the Gungans to defeat the Trade Federation.

Plot
On Tatooine, Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn gets into a duel with Sith Lord Darth Maul. However, Maul kills Qui-Gon with a fatal stab. Qui-Gon's apprentice Obi-Wan Kenobi runs out to help him, but is cut down. Finally, Maul boards Queen Amidala's ship and kills all aboard except the queen. Maul contacts his master Darth Sidious and plans to bring the Queen to Naboo to sign a treaty with the Trade Federation. Meanwhile on Coruscant Master Yoda senses a disturbance in the force and calls for a special Jedi Council meeting. All twelve masters meet and learn that Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan have failed. Yoda and Mace Windu set up a plan to help the doomed planet of Naboo. All twelve council members inform Chancellor Finis Valorum that they are leaving to help the planet. When Darth Maul arrives, he is greeted by Nute Gunray and Rune Haako. Then Darth Sidious arrives to learn that Queen Amidala was killed on Tatooine and that Darth Maul brought home her decoy Sabe. Sidious reveals to be Naboo's own Senator Palpatine and slays the false queen. The next day, the Jedi land in the swamps to find the Gungan ruler Boss Nass and the other Gungans homeless. Mace Windu negotiates with the Gungan ruler and an army is born. Meanwhile, Darth Maul orders Gunray and Haako to remain in the throne room after learning the presence of the Jedi. Ki-Adi-Mundi and the Gungans create a diversion to lure the Trade Federation away from the city. Plo Koon and Saesee Tiin lead Naboo pilots into space to knock out the Droid Control Ship. Meanwhile, Yoda, Mace, and the other seven Jedi lead an assault into Theed to capture Gunray and Haako. During the battle, Darth Maul tries to defeat the Jedi. He kills Eeth Koth, Depa Billaba, and Oppo Rancisis in the process. Darth Sidious also joins in the action by slaying Yaddle, Adi Gallia, and Yarael Poof. Ki-Adi-Mundi and the Gungans have an advantage over the droid armies while Plo Koon and Saesee Tiin struggle in space. Even Piell attempts to go after the viceroy, but is captured. Mace Windu is injured by Maul, but is able to get up and fight again. Sidious escapes just as Yoda cuts down Darth Maul, rescue Piell, and capture the viceroy. The Neimoidians aboard the control ship are kidnapped by Saesse Tiin who managed to disable the shields. The droids are deactivated and the galaxy is safe, for now.....
