Another Great Lego Title

Another great Lego title. My kids have enjoyed the Lego series of games. From the original Star Wars to the newer version and now Indy. They literally play the same levels over and over and over again. The only minor complaint is that the Indiana Jones Lego game is a bit too short as far as length is concerned. My 7 year old has made it through all three movies in less than a week with very little effort or time. That is not to say that "dad" has not had to jump in for a little fun and help at times. That is a minor complaint compared to the overall fun factor. Great fun.

My husband and I love this game. It is very similar to the Star Wars Leggo game, but with the Indiana Jones twist! I recommend this game for anyone who loves the movies.

An Ultra-FUN Game!

The whip. The hat. The leather suit. The blocks. Indiana Jones is back as you've never seen him before!

I purchased this game with high expectations, since I loved Lego Star Wars. It exceeded them.

With over 50 playable characters, six levels for each of the first three films, and different extra tricks to use, this game never gets old.

Great fun for anyone in the family.

Highly recommended.

Challenging but super fun!

We are having a great time playing Indiana Jones! At first it is a bit challenging, learning both remotes and all the moves. We are still learning and trying to figure out a lot about the game, however, it is great fun and very addicting!

Great fun for grown ups too!

My husband and I rented Lego Indiana Jones to play on our Wii. I haven't played the Star Wars Lego yet, so this was my first experience with a Lego game.

I have been pleasently surprised! We are two adults who are fans of video games, especially games we can play together. But it is difficult to find entertaining and challenging games that are light-hearted, but not violent or graphic. Lego definitely fit the bill. I was worried it would be too childish, too simple and easy. No, it doesn't take rocket science to get through the levels or find all the secret hidden areas. But it does take a little thought and extra effort to uncover extra secrets.

Plus, the game has a little extra bit of humor... the ability to poke fun at itself and the movies. I laughed out loud at a couple of the little movie clips!

I've enjoyed this game so much that I bought it (and returned the rental version), ordered Star Wars, and pre-ordered Batman! Thanks Lego for a fun game for kids and the kids-at-heart.

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.

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.

The Lego games are all really cute,but it lacks something. You can get stuck in a level after all the bad guys are dead,and there are no "hints" or directions to what you have to do to exit the level,and of course if you don't figure it out,and stop the game ,you must repeat the level and cannot continue until you DO figure out the last requirement in that level. Both my son and husband gave up,and haven't played it again.I noticed this is the problem in the other Lego series games as well.

Another Way to Enjoy the Adventures

The following review reflects that the primary user is a 7 year old male and a mild fan of the Indiana Jones series. I purchased this game on the recommendation from the parents of my son's friend. The game is follows the story line of the films where points are attained and levels unlocked by completing a series of tasks. I like the game because:
1. Problem solving is required.
2. The game reflects the story line of the movie series so one has a clue in what to do next.
3. The written clues are at a level that just challenge my son's reading abilities. ( perfect level for growth in reading skills)
4. Lego characters make what little shooting violence less graphic.
5. It is not so complicated that one gets stuck for a long period of time.
6. Multiple players can participate although the lead character has the most input.

On the negative side the game could be played on any of the current gaming consoles and does not take advantage of the unique accelerometer features of the Wii system

Overall the game is very engaging - (I have to pry him away from the game at times) and completion of levels is a source of satisfaction. Ideal for players between 6 to 10 years of age or any fan of the films.
