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.

I bought this game without having played any other Lego games before, and was very impressed. It looks great, and has a very easy going puzzle solving angle to it, which sometimes taxes but mostly just amuses. It's well paced, and follows the stories of the Indiana Jones movies closely enough that you have great fun anticipating what the next level is going to look like.

I found a number of minor irritations, particularly (as always) the camera not always pointing the way that you want it to, but more severely a bug on one of the levels which means that I can't complete it (very disappointing).

People told me that the replay value is quite high in this game, and although you absolutely definitely can't complete every aspect of every level the first time through, I have to confess that once I'd completed all the parts of the game that I could, I didn't really feel like going back and playing through it in "free play" mode to get all the secrets and extras, as the levels are really quite long, and you can't hop in and out of them at random.

Not that good
Review date: 2008-09-25 Rating: 6 out of 10

This was a bit of a disappointment after Lego Star Wars 2 the original trilogy, Lego Indy just is not engaging enough and feels like a cheap lego star wars clone with the Indy logo attached to it.

Dull and uninspired, this game not very engaging or fun and it just feels like you are going through the motions to get to the next cut scene, buy Lego Star Wars instead, it's far more atmospheric and playable and it's FUN.


Hats off to Lego Indy

Once again the Lego PSP series the programmers have done the business. Whilst not an exact copy of the first 3 films, this game only falls short of probably the best game on the PSP - Lego Star Wars - by a whisker.

It still has the comedy combined some excellent problem solving which, whilst not too difficult, does on occasions make the grey matter work.

The Characters are excellent and the mumbled dialogue perfectly spoken with an accent which relates directly to the people in the film.

It is very difficult to put down and with the stirring theme song always on hand this is a must for any PSP game player.


Very Enjoyable!

Well what can I say, this is one of the most enjoyable games I have played on the PSP in recent years, don't get me wrong the graphics won't blow you away, but is very good fun.
The format is identical to the Lego Starwars games where two characters with different skills fight there way through each level.The levels are spread across all three original films and are very charming following the films well. The levels can also be a tad challenging in places where you must solve puzzles to gain access to bonus aress too.
The best aspect is by far the multiplayer action, where you can have a friend help you through the game.
Like the starwars games the game can be replayed again and again using different characters to find all objects in the levels to unlock bonus areas.
After playing the game I can say that there isn't any bugs as of yet, so all is well there.
I'd recomend this game to anybody who enjoyed the Lego Starwars games, general gamers and fans of Indiana Jones. It's a great game at a reasonable price too.


Real good fun!
Review date: 2008-07-21 Rating: 8 out of 10

If you compare this to the masterpiece of LEGO Star Wars (as people undoubtedly will) then it is unsurprisingly slightly disappointing. Whereas the PSP version of the benchmark that was the Star Wars game was almost identical to the console versions, Lego Indiana Jones has some minor niggles that don't appear in the larger versions. However, the game itself is strong enough to ignore these and experience a very good game.

Yes, the problems with the camera are noticeable, especially in the earlier levels, and there are other occasional problems, such as the "loops of death" mentioned in the other review, but if you look past these you can find an excellent and absorbing game.

The characters and music are spot-on in all the levels, and once you disappear behind the headphones you can forget about everything else for a few hours. The brilliant stud-collecting and character-switching elements are as fun as ever, and there is plenty of replay value. I'm having great fun playing this game, and for fans of Indy and others alike, this will provide hours upon hours of excellent fun and a fantastic, movie-like experience.
