Your Favorite Hero in Lego Form LEGO Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures takes the fun and creative construction of LEGO and combines it with the wits, daring and non-stop action from the original cinematic adventures that enthralled audiences everywhere (Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade). With a unique tongue-in-cheek take on the original adventures, LEGO Indiana Jones follows Dr. Jones escapades through the jungles of South America to the mountaintops of India. Fans can build, battle and brawl their way through their favorite cinematic moments, from Indy’s entanglements with snakes to his dashing boulder run. Of course, pop culture’s most iconic archaeologist will whip through all the classic moments with the help of a host of supporting characters including Marion Ravenwood and Short Round. Players can also mix and match the body parts of more than 60 playable characters to create new heroes just as they could in the best-selling LEGO Star Wars games. | Key Features

Funny and divertising February 26, 2010 V. Lavoie 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This game is very good. It's funny and divertising and we had a lot of fun playing it during the holidays.
I got what I wanted! December 22, 2009 Jennifer Barnetson (Edmonton, AB, Canada) A good purchase. The product was new and in it's original wrapping just as advertised and in good shape when it arrived.
I was amazed at how quickly I received the game after ordering it. Very prompt service.
Almost fun ... August 24, 2009 Machushka (Canada) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
It is a cute game, it has some funny parts but overall can be frustrating. Camera angles can be very confusing and you may end up miscalculating the distance for your jump for example more than often. Sometimes the caracters will not jump on the platform and stay on it but they will just slide off for a weird reason or worse, if you get a glitch you cannot take control over the character and you will need to restart the game otherwise you will be staring at it being blown to pieces endlessly. Another thing, there is no option of saving the game meaning it will automatically save once you are done with the quest which can be very long for some of us. So for this it gets 2 stars.
Overall, I give it an extra star mainly because the game pushes you to be inventive with the solutions. It gives you hints and you need to figure out how to resolve the situation and this is the part that I liked the most.
LEGO Indiana Jones ... it could have been done better.
The best of the Lego franchise May 25, 2009 S. Lavigne (Canada) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I have played all three Lego games that exist to this day on the Wii console (Lego Star Wars, Batman and Indiana Jones) with my 6-years old daughter. These are all very good and fun games to play. The controls are easy to understand, the characters are funny, the gameplay is very easy without being boring; these are the perfect video games for an adult to play with a younger children.
The reason why I prefer Lego Indiana Jones over the other two is that this game puts more focus on solving puzzles (and the other two games were already good in that aspect). To move on in the game, you will have to find the right tools and perform the right actions, which often require a lot of collaboration between the two players. It's not all about fighting the bad guys.
Great game, lots of fun, lots to do! May 24, 2009 M. Bujold (Quebec) We really like this game... it's kind of addictive :) Stays true to the movies which is fun. There is a lot to do... once your finish it in game mode there are a bunch of things to do in free play. We would recommend it!!
