So as well as doing diary entries for all of the novels (see other thread), I'm also going to (eventually) cover every computer game as journal entries.
My first game (the first in the timeline) is The Emperor's Tomb, so here's the beginning of it. I'll add more as I get it done....
Working on "Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb", I have completed the journal entries for the first 3 levels of the game. The next journal will pick off straight from where this one finishes - so the new journal will actually see the exploits in Hong Kong. At the moment Ceylon, Prague and Istanbul and covered.
So here we go:
This is an old 1555 map of Ceylon (then known as Sumatra - now known as Sri Lanka) and is the same one that Indy is looking at at the start of the game.
The Silent Guardians were a pain to draw - they're hardly shown (especially open) in any of the online walkthroughs. The Heart of Kouru Watu is a cool looking idol - would be great to have a replica of in the collection.
The newspaper cuttings were taken from the Emperor's Tomb user manual.
The Astrological Clock in Prague drawing is a photoshopped screen-cap:
The homunculus info is taken from Wikipedia with an old wood cutting from Faust:
The Dragon Shard - 2nd piece of the Mirror of Dreams
The Phoenix Shard - the 3rd piece of the Mirror of Dreams. Though not actually named, I worked out from the screencaps that the other animal was a kind of bird. In China the Phoenix is paired with the Dragon a lot, so I figured out that's what it's supposed to be.
Looks like I forgot to photograph a page - with the Heart of Kouru Watu - the 1st piece of the Mirror of Dreams - on it. Will get that done soon and uploaded...
