Customer Reviews

Better than Kingdom of the Crystal Skull!
I've been waiting for an Indiana Jones adventure game for the DS that isn't a Lego game, and now that it's arrived, I'm having a blast! I can't put it down. The environments are well-designed, the fighting system is lots of fun (eat whip, Bad Guys!) and the use of actual John Williams music from the movies makes me feel like I'm completely immersed in an Indiana Jones film.
The only faults I can find are some minor control issues (sometimes it takes several tries to make Indy climb or jump), and I wish Indy could run a little faster (is this Indy from Raiders or Indy from Crystal Skull?). Also, the game is on rails for the most part and you can only go in one or two directions, but there are treasures to find and hidden areas to explore.
Overall, I really am enjoying this game, and hope there is a sequel in the works. We need more Indiana Jones games for the DS!

Indiana Jones and the Staff Kings
Thought it would be alittle more "life" like but same cartoon like.
Once you figure out whats going on-its ok not great

A Huge Disappointment
I had very high hopes for getting this game, but it turned out to be simply terrible. For one, I can't get past the first level. The graphics are not so good, either. Probably the only fun thing in this game is cipher mode. If you are looking for a fun DS game, please take my advice and do not get this one.
