Your Favorite Hero in Lego Form

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 archaeologist 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.

5 out of 5 stars COOL GAME!   July 3, 2008
This game is WAY better than Lego Star Wars. There are more challenging puzzles to figure out in each level. The people are easier to move around. There are more extras to buy. It's just an all around awesome game! I'm a nearly 40 yo mom and my husband bought this for me as an early birthday gift. Lots of fun!


4 out of 5 stars Great game with improvments to the Star Wars version   July 1, 2008
I love the Star Wars Lego game and being a Indiana Jones fan I got this to I like this game better the the Star Wars game for a few reasons:

1. It is a little bit easier to play I have problems with several of the Star Wars levels for the Wii as they are not easy for someone who is not a avid gamer and have not been able to move past those levels because if it. (Hoth Battle for one!)

2. It really is extremely imersive and has all kinds of fun hidden things when you take the time to play the free play levels. (How many Star Wars characters have you rescued yet?)

3. The graphics are even better on this version really nicely done.

The bad things:
It can take a while to get to each level from the main map menu and that gets boring I'm not sure if this is just loading issue or they did not think about how boring it would be to wait to keep watching the red line go past every level to get to where you selected in Free Play mode. If it's just a loading issue it would be nice if the screen said loading, it would make me less impatient if I knew it was just the game loading. Silly, maybe, but it would help.

Also each level can be long and if you go into free play you cannot skip sections to get to where you want to go you have to start at the begining and go through the entire level all over again. *You can stop it when you want and save what you've done so far so if what you wanted to do is at the begining it isn't so bad. But you do not go back to where you saved if you leave you still have to start all over again.I'd love to be able to skip some of the bad guy battles I already went through so I could just go where I wanted to search through stuff.(This would be nice in the Star Wars game as well.)

But all in all this is still a brilliant game and is even better than the Star Wars game in my opinion.



5 out of 5 stars My Son Loves This Game...   June 30, 2008
I got this for my 5-year-old for his birthday...He loves the Legos Star Wars for Wii, and now he's loving this one too.


3 out of 5 stars Great Game, but I just don't really like the puzzle mode   June 30, 2008
I loved the lego re-inactments. Very amusing. But I've played SOOO many games that require you to solve puzzles (tomb-raider, prince of persia, etc.) This I just classified as one of those, albeit it was by far one of the funniest, cute, and most amusing puzzle games by far. I though 1 star would be too harsh. It's a cute game, but really boring.


4 out of 5 stars Fun but a little difficult as well   June 29, 2008
When I finally bought my Wii, I didn't want to buy any expensive games and end up not liking them, so I ended up renting this one to start out with. I love Indiana Jones (the movies), and really liked Lego Star Wars so I thought I would give this one a go.

I will say that I really do enjoy playing this game and actually ended up buying a copy for myself since I found myself to like it so much. It is especially amusing in two-player mode and my family has gotten more than a few laughs out of that!

My only complaint, and the reason I gave it only four stars, is because it is actually a bit challenging at times. And I mean, really really challenging. I have had to refer to the game guide more than once just to get through the levels. I did think that this would be a bit easier because it seemed to be more of a kids game, but the game guide isn't that expensive, so if you aren't a great gamer, I recommend just picking up the guide along with the game.

PS: It is A LOT of fun to use the Wii remote to crack the whip!! lol
