Hoth Ice Planet Adventure Game

Hoth Ice Planet Adventure Game was a board game that released by Kenner in June 1980. It was loosely based on the Battle of Hoth from The Empire Strikes Back.

Another in a long line of generic games based on the Star Wars movies. Very similar in play to Kenner's Yoda game.
