The last star is for the nostalgia
I last played this game when I was like eight years old, never finished it because I couldn't get past Von Beck's tank chase (and the time for a new game to load back then was infernally long). So I decided to give it a shot now and finally finish it. It's certainly uglier than I remember it, but I can't hold that against such an old game. The story is complete and utter nonsense I won't go into for fear of my brain starting to hurt. The voice acting is downright terrible, with dialog definitely worthy of it. Indy constantly repeats phrases which do not deserve to be called one-liners throughout the game itself and the cutscenes. That's right - you'll hear Indy say something stupid like "fortune and glory - here I come" upon finding an artifact, then repeating the exact same thing in a cutscene! There's also no option to save a game, and no in-level checkpoints either. If you die anywhere during a level you'll have to replay everything from the last time you saw a loading screen. This can get extremely frustrating, as a good part of the game consists of platforming and Indy needs more space than my car does to make a simple U-turn. This means you'll often die by falling into some bottomless chasm or another and have to play entire levels from the beginning. Most of them aren't too long, but long enough for replaying to annoy the shit out of you. The platforming feels somewhat clunky, and climbing around the environment is practically scripted. The game's saving grace is it's melee combat, which is overall simply fun (especially grabbing your enemies and throwing them off cliffs, balconies and into the water - who doesn't get a kick out of that!). There is a method to fighting your enemies, and failing to disarm them long enough for them to start shooting at you can cost you a good bit of health. Some of the locations you visit are pretty cool, although extremely over the top at times. There's a couple of lame ones too, though.
