My whole family is a huge fan of the Lego Star Wars games. We were very excited when we saw the new Lego Indy.
And after playing it for 2 hours we were completely frustrated with it!! In the temple of Dome with the airplane we were clueless!!! As to what needed to be done to move on. We kicked, punched and destroyed everything in the room but nothing happen we were stuck!!! I had to get online to find the answer.
I think the designer rushed to get this game out, because many times I was stuck in out of camera areas that I had no idea how I got there. And many times I'd hit the tringle to change people and it would drop me out of the game instead, it has many flawess. Even people who give the game 5 stars say "the game is frustrating!!"
I don't know if they were trying to appeal to adults by making it more challenging but it's more Annoying then challenging; trying to figure out what to do in each level you just want to throw the game in the garbage!!
If it wasn't for it being a lego game I would have never bought it.

While this game has been anticipated for a time period that seems like forever, the game still feels like it was rushed out to production. I've played through the entire campaign, and it is truly frustrating at times. The objectives are often unclear, and the respawning enemies make you want to throw the controller against the wall. The game is quite fun, minus the mile-away camera angles, and the glitches that clearly plague the game. It is far less polished than Lego Star Wars, and obviously quite shorter than The Complete Saga. It is overall an enjoyable game with incredible graphics, but the gameplay aspect isn't there. I would recommend the game, just don't expect a Lego Star Wars, because it really isn't on the same level. Oh, and a wonderful thing that was added is the ability to buy artefacts (formerly known as minikits). So if you are stuck and really can't find a few of them, you can just buy them and beat the game that way!

I am a big fan of the LEGO game series, if you liked the LEGO Star wars you will enjoy this game. Sometimes the AI can be a bit too accurate with projectiles, it makes it a bit frustrating at times, but all in all it oozes LEGO comedy awesomeness.

In 2005 the gaming public was introduced to LEGO Star Wars. That game went on to become a phenomenon. It was fun, simple and humorous. LEGO Indiana Jones plays very similar to the LEGO Star Wars games in many different ways. There are slight differences, however, and while LEGO Indiana Jones is certainly a treat, it isn't quite as good as LEGO Star Wars.
In terms of the differences between versions, the XBOX 360 version is pretty much the same as the Wii. There's really no better one here. It all depends on which system you have. The Wii version lets you use motion sensor controls, but all three versions even look almost exactly the same.
If you've played LEGO Star Wars, then Indiana Jones is instantly familiar. You'll go through all three of the original films. Throughout the levels you'll be two or more different characters and able to switch on the fly. Much like the Star Wars games, characters have abilities they can use to get you further into the game. Some characters can find secret passages, some can double jump. Indy, of course, uses his whip. There's a much bigger emphasis on puzzles in LEGO Indiana Jones, but there's nothing here that's too challenging or taxing. Anyone should be able to pick up and play LEGO Indiana Jones. There's also co-op play and a friend can jump in whenever they feel like it and drop out whenever they feel like it.
There are also studs that you can collect. Studs are the currency you can use in the hub to do things like purchase hidden characters or other bonuses. You can get studs by destroying certain objects or simply by taking down enemies.
The biggest difference between LEGO Star Wars and LEGO Indiana Jones is the way combat works. In LEGO Star Wars most characters either had a blaster or a lightsaber. Indiana Jones relies much more heavily on hand-to-hand combat. You can find weapons and use them, but they have limited ammunition. The only bad thing about the gameplay in Indiana Jones is that there's so much of an emphasis on hand-to-hand combat that it leads to unnecessary deaths sometimes. When the bad guy has a gun and you don't, half the battle is dying to get to him and take him down. Luckily, there's no penalty for dying in LEGO Indiana Jones other than losing studs. There's no such thing as a game over.
Just like LEGO Star Wars, there's the story mode where you use the characters the story gives you, and then you can go back in Free Play Mode to uncover more secrets you otherwise couldn't before. You'll want to go back in Free Play Mode in order to get all the secrets. There are treasure chests to find in every level as well as a red package. You can't get all the hidden treasure chests in a level without going back in Free Play Mode. The main campaign probably won't take you that long. Half the fun of LEGO Indiana Jones is going back into levels and uncovering secrets.
In terms of production values, LEGO Indiana Jones is a winner. The LEGO world is incredible to behold. While there's no voice acting to speak of in the cutscenes, there's a great amount of humor, and there are a lot of classic scenes that are reenacted very well. LEGO Indiana Jones is easily a looker, but it also sounds great. There are a couple of camera hang ups, but nothing too big, and it runs pretty smoothly too. The music is pulled directly from the films. John Williams score still sounds good almost thirty years later.
LEGO Indiana Jones shouldn't be missed. If you enjoy Indiana Jones or if you enjoyed LEGO Star Wars, then LEGO Indiana Jones is a must. It emulates the film very well and is so simple to play that anyone can pick it up and go with it.

I have only played 4 levels so far, but after seeing the only other review give it 2 stars I had to write something. This game is probably more challenging than the Star Wars version. Not having the blaster or lightsaber in hand makes fights more interesting. I had to throw chairs and bottles, take a sword/ guns away from an enemy to use it, and avoid bullets at times. I thought the levels I played were complex and pretty long the home base college was put together well. The game offers many cut scene movies that lead into or complete the level, and as with the other Lego titles there is a unique brand of humor in all of them. In all I'd say any Indy Lego fan will think this is a great game, could it be better? couldn't most games?
