LEGO Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures takes the fun and creative construction of LEGO and combines it with the wits, daring and non-stop action from the original cinematic adventures that enthralled audiences everywhere (Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade). With a unique tongue-in-cheek take on the original adventures, LEGO Indiana Jones follows Dr. Jones escapades through the jungles of South America to the mountaintops of India. Fans can build, battle and brawl their way through their favorite cinematic moments, from Indy's entanglements with snakes to his dashing boulder run.
Of course, pop culture's most iconic archeologist will whip through all the classic moments with the help of a host of supporting characters including Marion Ravenwood and Short Round. Players can also mix and match the body parts of more than 60 playable characters to create new heroes just as they could in the best-selling LEGO Star Wars games.
Product reviews...
Want to be the great Indian Jones? Want to take part in all three original movies? Like Lego? Then this is the game for you.
Play through three levels, Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, and each one has six levels within themselves. Start off by getting the idol in Raiders of the Lost Ark and having to run for your life from the natives and end with finding the Holy Grail and saving Jones Senior.
As you go through the game you get to play all the main characters, and each one has their own special abilities. Indiana has his whip, Short Round can fit through trapdoors and Winnie can jump twice as high as anyone else and scream to break glass.
About the only thing that I don't like about this game as when in two-player mode it can get a bit frustrating when you want to go one way but you can't as both you and your team-mate must be within a set distance of each other. Other than that it is a great game.
