I Want to Love This Game But....

Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb was probably the second Indiana Jones game I played when I was a kid. After Playing Infernal Machine and loving the puzzles to solve I thought Emperor's Tomb would be the same concept. Not really, but still an entertaining game to play. hand to hand combat is fun and being able to pick up objects to throw at enemies. The platform jumping and puzzles to solve are sort of fun. The story was a little cheesy but at least there was one. My biggest problem with this game has to be camera controls ( use the mouse to move it and control Indiana underwater) and how there is no save button. Not being able to record your progress is probably my biggest issue with the game. Sometimes there are levels that are really long and you might die on a jump near the end of the level then have to start back at the beginning. I love Indiana Jones and have been a fan since I watched Raiders of the Lost Ark when I was 10 years old. I love playing Indiana Jones games like Fate of Alantis and Infernal Machine (love/hate game) but with the saving being a huge issue I have to give it 3/5.

Not such a great game

I bought this game expecting a sort of Tomb Raider-like game, and while I got what I was expecting the quality is a bit....lacking. You play as Indiana Jones (with whip and hat and all) and while the story itself is quite interesting, I found myself struggling with the controls most of the time. This lead to many deaths and much frustration (seeing as how if you die, you have to start the level from start, there is no auto save of quick save or any save of any kind). I was playing with mouse and keyboard, in case that makes a difference. To be fair, I am not great at these sorta jumping, climbing and fighting games, but I feel I would have done a much better job if the camera and movement controls weren't so janky. Not to mention exploration wasn't really encouraged, since many explorations lead to death and, as mentioned before, restart of the whole level. The game itself wasn't very hard, the fights were easy enough on normal and I often figured out the puzzles easily, it was simply the controls that made the game harder than needed. All in all, an okay game that I sadly couldn't wait to complete just to get rid of all frustration. If you like Tomb Raider games and are good at wonky controls, you might really enjoy this. If, like me, you're medicore at these sort of games, you may experience frustration that cannot be changed by turning the game difficulty down. Good story tho, very Indiana Jonesy.

It could've been a great game

As the title of the review suggests, my experience wasn't as good as I hoped. What I liked: - The fist fights are amazing; the feeling that you actually punching someone is very real. - Restoring your health by drinking water from a canteen looks silly at the beginning until you remember the Last Crusade and smile at the reference. What I didn't like: - Controls! I hate those gu... I really do! For a person with serious Tomb Raider experience, getting used to the locked camera 3rd person controls in Emperor's tomb for me was like jumping into a manual gears budget car after 20 years of driving automatic Mercedes. - Character's animation: except for the fist fights, Indy is rather clumsy when running, jumping etc. It feels insecure. - The game is primarily based on action - there are no clever or interesting puzzles. It's more about speed and timing than thinking. There is no balance. - The auto save! The number one reason I have always hated consoles is the lack of free save option. Having to re-play long parts of the level, for absolutely no reason, because you've died at the very end is stupid! But the biggest complaint is the story. Yes, the Indiana Jones films are full of action and adventurous moments, but the action works, because there is always a solid story background that supports it and creates the overall "on the edge of your seat" experience. I didn't get such thing from this game. Emperor's tomb is a fan-service with exceptional fist fights, yes, but the game experience in general for me was... clumsy and uncomfortable. Ironically, the 8-bit "belongs to the museum" Fate of Atlantis has way more of that famous Indy "juice" despite being a completely different genre. There is a reason why it didn't make well after it's release. Making a game, based on such a huge franchise is a lot of expectations and high bars. Unfortunately, The Emperor's Toms and Star Wars Galaxies marked the beginning of the downfall of LucasArts.

Among Indy's best games!

Behind Fate of Atlantis this is the best Indiana Jones game ever made. A brilliant "Tomb Raider" clone with more action than puzzles. It really captures the feel of the movies and when it was released it felt like a very polished game. I was trying to find the PC version only last week. So happy to see it on GOG. Hopefully we can get a widescreen patch at some point.

Great Fun

I really loved this game. i don't normally like third-person games but this is tremendous, and with perfectly acceptable graphics and movement and a film soundtrack that really makes it feel like an Indy film. It should be said this really is a third-person game - although you can if standing still hold down a key for first-person, this is only for looking around or aiming a weapon. Having to do so can make using guns a little tricky in this game, but that's my only real criticism. Other than that it's all good - you're taken to a variety of locations and each requires a good combination of acrobatics and combat to get you through. Thoroughly recommended, and i really hope they make more like this.
