I had a feeling this would be great. This game has some of the great features that were enjoyed in the Lego Star Wars series with some welcome Indiana Jones additions. The cheats (e.g. invincibility and artifact detectors) make this game a little more fun for little people (6-year-olds) and adults that don't much care for dying all the time, losing your money, or not being able to complete the artifacts.

After winning the "story" levels, there is plenty of replay value in the "free play" mode. In fact, I'd say the levels are more fun to navigate with several characters to rotate through.

We are extremely happy with this game and are eagerly awaiting Lego Batman in the fall. Well done!

Too good

I got this game just yesterday night, so I played it today and there was a huge difference between this and the LEGO star wars series. Here, you start out in Barnett College with a lot of rooms to explore, and if you need extra studs, sometimes you can get a couple hundred by destroying tables and chairs. There are also a lot of characters you can unlock and it is fun playing as them. The levels are definetely challenging but only after a couple of minutes, not too long, you can find out what you have to do or how you should do it. I am only halfway through Raiders of the Lost Ark, and I already got a lot of fun out of it. Like in some cases, you can pick up chairs and throw them at people. Unlike star wars you can pick up items on the floor or left over by previous enemies. The only thing is that after a while they disappear and you can't use them for that long.These are some points on the game...
+ A lot of fun using Indiana Jones' whip and other weapons.
+ Tons of replay value
+ Never get tired of it
+ Challenging levels make it better
+ You can swim, swing, and each character has a different skill
- Could have had the 4th movie
This is probably the best LEGO game yet and it is a must for Indy fans!

He stayed up all night...

I know, I know... the Lego series of games are primarily aimed at kids. But they sure are a fun way to wile away some time, no matter what age you might be. Lego Indiana Jones is just fantastic, and pays excellent tribute to some of the finest adventure movies ever made. And as a bonus, for the first time ever, I actually enjoyed something related to Temple of Doom.

As most reviews have already stated, the game has two modes: story and free play. Story mode takes you through each movie in order. The emphasis in this mode is reenacting the movies, solving puzzles in order to move forward, and having dust-ups with various bad guys.

Once you complete a level, free play mode becomes available for that level. In free play, you go back to each level and use a variety of characters to retrieve items to add to a collection back at your "base," Barnett College. As you do so, you also unlock bonus levels, gather Lego "studs" to buy upgrades, and buy new characters.

Unlike a lot of games that rely on the "unlockable" formula of gameplay for holding your attention, Lego Indiana Jones never makes it feel like a grind, like you have to cover the same ground over and over again to advance. Instead, they've managed to hit a sweet spot, where you feel pleasantly compelled to go back and revisit each level, just to see what new surprises await you.

It's quite a testament to how well the game captures the spirit of the movies when, after each session with the game, I wanted to pop in the actual movies and watch them all over again. And the music is fantastic! The game uses the original score from each movie during the appropriate levels, which really adds a sense of polish and excitement to the proceedings.

When I finally hit 100% complete in the game and the Lego studs started raining down in Barnett College, I was actually quite sad that it was all over. This game is just pure fun. A little challenging, but very rewarding. If you liked the movies, this is really a no-brainer.

Worth buying but Star Wars is better

If you haven't bought Lego Star Wars yet - buy that. Don't get me wrong, Indiana Jones is fun and I like that there are more puzzles in this Lego version but the biggest issue I have is the length of the levels. In Star Wars the levels are much shorter. Sometimes playing Indiana Jones you're stuck having to continue and continue playing to finish the level as you can't save in the middle. As the characters don't bring diversity - seemed in Star Wars they had several unique and different characters to unlock. In Indiana 95% of the characters are the same minus a different hat or something minor. I guess Star Wars was so great that Indiana had lots to live up to - but on it's own it's still a good game and fun to play.
