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).

Excellent!!!!!!!!!
I was really surprised when I got this game, because I was expecting the graphics to be poor and the gameplay as well.

The graphics are amazing concidering that everything is supposed to be made out of legos. It's overall easy gameplay, but I must admit that there are challenges along the way. (solving puzzles, etc.) My only regret is that I wish it wasn't in lego form.

Why can't any of the video game companies make a normal indiana jones game. I guarantee they'd make even more money. I mean why lego? Same goes for Star Wars, etc. Why did they make a lego version.

Why not a normal one, with interesting graphics? Anyway, just my opinion. Oh, there's only one thing I don't like about the game, it's annoying that you have to switch between the characters because some have special abilites. It's irritaing at times. Other than that, it's pretty much worth the $$$. Hope this helps!

Fun
I bought this for my 5 year old son. He loves the lego series. It has kind of been harder than the Star Wars, but he still loves to play it.

Lego Indiana Jones
I bought the game for my little brother for christmas and he has already beat it, so I think he really likes it.
