I've been playing some old LucasArts games on Steam, trying to make up for lost time. Finished The Secret of Monkey Island a couple months ago, and then I moved on to Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. I wanted to love it, but the focus on trial and error was frustrating, and the combat really turned me off. I managed to finish the game, but it was more of an ordeal than anything. I hear the other Indy game is a real gem though. What was your experience with them? |
As a very young kid I remember feeling a lot of difficult playing the first Indy game (Last Crusade the Adventure, never bothered with the Action version). It was hellish hard, I gave up. Then I bought Fate of Atlantis... and fell in love. One of the finest - I haven't played in 15 years, but I swear I can finish it by head in all 3 available paths just from memory - they were that good.
Even later, on a adventure revival phase I was going through I tried Last Crusade again, and loved it. Still hard, but also clever. From Lucasarts I don't even think it's the hardest - the dig for me, but compared to some sierra games I also like it's a walk in the park. I mean, finishing King's Quest 3 or Quest for Glory 2 is feat of intelligence.
