I’m a fan of the Indiana Jones movies. After trying this game, I could feel the essence of the movies being captured within the game such as the witty humor and the cinematic camera angles. The puzzle solving aspect of the game is incredibly enjoyable, and as someone who has studied archaeology, it makes me enjoy the history of ancient civilizations, such as ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, and the Ramayanas of Southeast Asia.

As a Thai, I was impressed by the scenes set in the Kingdom of Siam (Thailand). While some details, like clothing and architecture, didn’t align perfectly with the era, they were still better represented than in most other games.

One downside of this game is that most of the gameplay is in the third person, which might be bad for players prone to motion sickness. The stealth gameplay is understandable because, in the movie, Dr. Jones can't fight off an army of enemies alone.

Overall, this game is well-rounded and accessible to everyone, even those who aren’t fans of the movies. However, I’d recommend watching the movies beforehand to better appreciate the backstory. For me 8/10.

Good work MachineGames!
