Indiana Jones in Revenge of the Ancients
After making the IJ
"Lost Kingdom" game thread, I figured I'd continue the classic Indy game trend.
Indiana Jones in Revenge of the Ancients
This is the one Indy game I still haven't beaten. Mainly because its a text adventure game, and I manage to die at the same place every time (trying to jump onto a plane from a cliff...not easy to do in terms of timing it right in an all text game). I like this one, though. It picks up sometime after Raiders since Marion is tagging along (in the Indy timeline...around the Further Adventures comics), and has you searching for the Mazatec Power Key before the Germans find it. Marion pops into the adventure from time to time. Its a decent game, but after dying and restarting a few times can get extremely repetitive since you're reading the same descriptive text each time. Still, definitly has the feel of an Indy adventure.
This is probably the rarest Indy game out there (except for maybe the
Lost Kingdom game). I don't own an original copy, but I made a fan made version for myself by downloading an emulated copy off the Web, burning it to a CD, then printing up the original box art onto a DVD case label (as well as the DVD label itself). Yeah, its shecky, but it turned out really nice and I sure as hell wasn't able to find an ACTUAL copy of the game, so why not?
Anyway, has anyone else played this classic?
