Indy and Captain Jack are at it again!

LEGO® Indiana Jones™: The Original Adventures, Indiana Jones™: The Adventure Continues and Pirates of the Caribbean: The Video Game are now available, DRM-free on GOG.com.

Battle enemies and villains, hunt treasures that any museum would like to adopt, avoid snakes and don't forget to smirk. A LOT. It's the Original Adventures of daring archaeologist Indiana Jones chock-full of puzzles, action, and setpieces from the iconic movies. The fun doesn't stop there, though: The Adventure Continues with even more characters, wacky situations, and of course the ability to build your own levels and tear them apart brick by brick alongside your friends.

Once you're done restoring priceless artifacts to their rightful place, let's go plunder some! Captain Jack Sparrow and his ragtag Pirates of the Caribbean set sail for supernatural high jinks, cutthroat platforming, and deep-sea troubles.

Wanna hit the bricks and learn some fancy tricks? Check out more LEGO® games in our Special Sale, which lasts until March 5, 11PM UTC.
Good, now gimme the really old stuff! LEGO Island, LEGO Rock Raiders, LEGO Racer, etc.
No discount?

What the heck, Disney?


But, hey. More LEGO games, so it's a win.

Very nice releases, thank you Disney & GOG <3! Wishlisted for now.

astroclay: Could someone please explain the difference between the two Indiana Jones games? I'm a little confused since it sounds like the second game also covers the original trilogy of films...
Since the description under part two says:

"A complete retelling of Indy’s three original adventures from the first game, for a whole new experience!"

I'd say, you buy and play the second part, and be done with it.

Of course, the keywords are "retelling" and "new experience", with the 'retold new experience' meaning:

- new levels
- new enemies
- new boss fights

If you think, you "need" the whole series...you have to buy both parts, anyway.
Agreeing with others, a bit pricey so wishlisted for now.

Had there been a 30% launch discount I would have bought all three, but as it stands I've bought none.

tinyE: Oh sorry! :P
Indy, the Original Adventures, and I say buggy only because every day cd and dvd games get just a little tougher to install. The older, the less updated, the harder to tweek and get running with newer cards, different OS, etc etc etc
I see.
I actually hoped you meant Pirates of Caribbean. I bought it somehwere outside Steam several years ago and it was buggy as hell, bordering on playability. But I never encountered anyone with same problems. So when the game was later released on Steam, I warned people there but none of them had any issues so they took me for mad man and I think one day I started to believe they are right.
This was my chane to prove them wrong, to show people I am not crazy if someone else had issues but alas I'll have to climb back into my comfy cell and wait for next time.

The first one spans across 3 original movies, all taking 1/3 of game. The sequel too contains those 3 movies but they only take 1/2 of the game together (1 chapter each of them), The other half of the game (3 chapters) are unfortunately reserved for Crystal Skull.
There is less episodes in each chapter. It is important to say the missions from the same movies are mostly different in game 1 and 2.
But I would say they are worse in game 2 and I would say overall the game is not as good as the first one.

mqstout: You have some listed under TT Games and some under Traveler's Tales. Want to merge those developers for better searching?
I asked about that awhile ago and was told TT is the parent company and some of the Traveler's Tales stuff was developed before the buy out so therefore they shouldn't be combined.

*shrug*
£15 for all three would be pushing it, but each? You can pick up the DVD version of these for a £1 or 2 each.
Like so many of these Lego games, most/all screenshots on the storepage are just captures from the pre-rendered videos. Fine if you already know what the games are like but someone who doesn't would get a 2.5d platformer and not the full 3D free-roam experience the images suggest. At least here you can Google ingame shots. You can't do that when buying a physical copy like with the Lego Batman I bought years ago with all shots on the back being from the cutscenes.
Strange that there's no launch discount given that they've presumably been discounted multiple times on Steam.

But at least there's some decent discounts on other LEGO games - https://www.gog.com/promo/20180301_legos

And I concur about classic LEGO games showing up (Island, Rock Raiders, Racers, LOCO, etc.), but as the Rock Raiders United folks will tell you, LEGO wants to focus on and push games that feature their current sets.

On the subject of Disney, Double Fine is claiming Curse of Monkey Island is "out of [their] hands", sooo, what's happening with that? :P A heckton of votes, easily ScummVMable afaik, and it'd certainly bring in more money than the Indy games.

YouTube is very important too, for gameplay footage.

Yes, that's what I was thinking but I'm not keen on Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

I appreciate the mini-review! The descriptions weren't too clear on the major differences between the games.
atleast give a discount. these are old
I would rather see LEGO Rock Riders - but still it's nice to have these 3 here and I'll pick them eventually as my son loves LEGO games.
Why no group discount at the very least? I can't bite at this price.

Ouch the pricing is way over the top, as the other Virgin Disney Trilogy (Aladdin, Tarzan, Jungle Book).

I got the "originals" on CD / DVD for 2,49 Euros each and even the regular release in the old days were moderately priced with 10 Euros..

Perhaps they are aiming for the 75% "discount price" for about 8-10 Euros...
