Still solid fun!
This one is pretty old, being the first non-Star Wars game to come out of the LEGO franchise way back in 2008. Luckily, the formala is still the same and done pretty sucessfully. It's six levels per film, each with 10 minikits, True Adventurer, and some mail (this games red bricks) to discover. I found most of the levels to be fairly enjoyable (there were a few in Temple of Doom that I found a little anoying though) and going for the 100% never felt like a grind. There are a few sections that have infinitylly spawning soldiers though, which was annoying especially in free play. Also, this was back before the use of any VO, so get ready for plenty of slapstick and visual comedy. I think it's still just as funny as anything they do with VO nowadays. Since it's so early, this game doesn't really have any super unique mechanics. Indy has a whip ability, which I don't think has been used in many of the other games, but that's about it. The hub is Barnett Colledge. It is much smaller in comparison to the newer hubs, but still has some fun things to discover such as in Indy's office and the artifact room which houses the 'secret levels'. The only realy drawback I have for this one is that the character selection is pretty mediocre. None of the films really have any strong villians, so I really got all the characters I was interested in through playing the story. The one cool character that's not one of the heroes is Han Solo, who can be unlocked by disvcovering the 5 hidden (unplayable) Star Wars characters. If you're a fan of the LEGO formula and the Indy films, this is an easy recomend.
