Indiana Jones® and the Last Crusade™

Some parts good, some just terrible

I really *wanted* this game to be good, but as a whole it just isn't. Not by today's standards anyway, and somehow I have a hard time believing it was good by its time's standards. The extremely shortened plot only works if you know the movie (which I guess is an acceptable prerequisite); the puzzles are decent, if not too easy, but there should be more of them; the dialogues range from OK to entertaining; but what really made me mad were the annoying maze & arcade boxing interludes. They are just frustratingly bad because they feel misplaced, the controls are terrible, and there's almost no way you're not going to rely on loading savegames 100 times until you make it. Clearly, noone could have considered these fistfights entertaining? In fact I gave up and cheated; if you need it, here's how: In ScummVM, at the beginning of a fight, just press CTRL+D to open the debug console, then type "scumm_vars[212] 32000" and press Enter, and you'll have insane punch power - one hit and you win.
