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.

Customer Reviews

Good game
Lego Indiana jones is a great game for the ps3. The graphics are quite good, but you cant exactly have millions of different tones on a lego piece. This game s great for the younger ages especially, considering there arent really many games out on the playstation 3 for the younger ages. Overall the qualtiy and level designs look great. the idea that you can work as a team also adds to the speciality off this game.
Would reccommend.

Great nostalgia trip ...
This is a great game, which mangages to fit the Lego Star Wars formula to the Indy films seamlessly. It also provides enjoyable nostalgia for those who have watched the films over the decades and the humour is welcome. The levels and gameplay are varied and there is the obvious huge benefit of massive replayability. Yet I only have rated it 3 stars and the following is why...

1. I've played the PSP version which is virtually identical except for the graphics. Perhaps the PS3 version could have included some more extras?
2. The camera sometimes means that you cannot line up your jumps accurately - surely this is unforgivable for platform games in this day and age? maybe some limited camera control or more forgiving jumps (such as in Uncharted)would have been useful?
3. Lego Star Wars (PS3) included all 6 movies and loads of extras. The content of Lego Indy seems woefully lacking in comparison.
4. it seems to me that Lego indy is just a little too easy compared to Lego Star Wars when collecting the bonuses. You can usually become a True Adventurer half way through a level and if you don't find an artifact piece then you can just buy it!!

Other than these issues the Lego platforming concept is stll a genius idea that works well for Indy and they certainly haven't stopped me playing it or recommending it to others!

Good fun but not as good as star wars
I have recently bought this as I am a big fan of Lego Star Wars. Its a good game but doesnt really add much to the existing franchise. Its great to have some fresh levels and characters to get stuck into and there are some nice touches but it doesnt bring anything new. It is however, great fun for all ages and backgrounds. Its definitely worth buying, especially if you enjoy Indi films and the star wars lego game.
